Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Males and females, ≥18 years of age with a diagnosis of homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia by genetic confirmation or a clinical diagnosis based on a history of an untreated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) concentration \>500 mg/deciliter (dL) \[13 millimoles/liter (mmol/L)\] together with either xanthoma before 10 years of age or evidence of heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia in both parents
* Stable on pre-existing, lipid-lowering therapies (statins in combination with ezetimibe) for at least 4 weeks with no planned medication or dose change for the duration of study participation
* Fasting central lab LDL-C concentration \>130 mg/dL (3.4 mmol/L) and triglyceride concentration \<400 mg/dL (4.5 mmol/L).
* Body weight of 40 kilograms (kg) or greater at screening

Exclusion Criteria

* Received LDL plasma replacement therapy within 8 weeks before Investigational product administration
* Received Lomitapide or Mipomersen within 5 months before Investigational product administration
* Received prior treatment with PCSK9 inhibitors or AK102.
* Unexplained creatine kinase (CK) ≥ 5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN)
* Subjects with untreated chronic hepatitis B or chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA exceeding 500 IU/ mL or active hepatitis C virus (HCV) should be excluded. Subjects with non-active HBsAg carriers, treated and stable hepatitis B (HBV DNA \<500 IU/ mL) , and cured hepatitis C can be enrolled. Subjects with positive HCV antibodies are eligible only if the HCV RNA test results are negative.
* Known allergic reactions to any ingredients of AK102
* Any other condition(s) that would compromise the safety of the patient or compromise the quality of the clinical study as judged by the Investigator and/or Medical Monitor.
