Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

In this study, there are two study medicines: NNC0385-0434 (the new medicine being tested) and placebo (a 'dummy' medicine). Participants will only get one of these medicines - which one is decided by chance. The study medicine for each person is chosen by a computer. A dummy medicine (placebo) looks like the study medicine but has no effect on the body. The dummy medicine needs to be used in the study to find out if the study medicine works as expected. The dose of the study medicines that participants receive will depend on which group they get into. The study has 4 groups of 8-15 participants in each. Each group will get a different dose of NNC0385-0434 or placebo. Participants and the study doctor will not know which of the study medicine/dose participants will get. However, if a participant's safety is at risk, the study doctor will be told in order to decide the future treatment. NNC0385-0434 may help to clear cholesterol from the blood. When there is less cholesterol circulating in the blood over a long period of time, then there is less risk of arteries (blood vessels) being clogged or developing diseases of the heart and blood vessels. Each participant will get one injection under the skin and will be in the study for about 4 months.

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Four (4) cohorts are planned. In 3 cohorts, healthy subjects will be randomised in a 3:1 manner to receive either: 1) NNC0385-0434 or 2) Placebo (NNC0385-0434). Each cohort will last 10 weeks and there will be 3 weeks between cohorts. Following safety observation, a fourth cohort will be initiated with patients with hypercholesterolaemia. Patients will be randomised in a 2:1 manner to receive either: 1) NNC0385-0434 or 2) Placebo (NNC0385-0434).

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

NNC0385-0434

Healthy volunteers will be randomised to one of three cohorts. In each cohort of 8 participants, 6 will receive active drug and 2 will receive placebo. Following safety observation, patients with hypercholesterolaemia will enter a fourth cohort. There will be 15 participants in this cohort.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

NNC0385-0434

Intervention Type DRUG

Healthy volunteers and patients will receive one injection s.c. (subcutaneously, under the skin)

Placebo (NNC0385-0434)

Healthy volunteers will be randomised to one of three cohorts. In each cohort of 8 participants, 6 will receive active drug and 2 will receive placebo.

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Exclusion Criteria

Healthy volunteers:

* Male subjects who are not surgically sterilised (vasectomy) and are sexually active with female partner(s) and not using condom with spermicide combined with an effective method of contraception for their female partner(s) in the period from randomisation visit (V2) until 10 weeks following administration of the investigational medical product.
* Any disorder which in the Investigator's opinion might jeopardise subject's safety, evaluation of results, or compliance with the protocol.

Patients with hypercholesterolaemia:

* Male subjects who are not surgically sterilised (vasectomy) and are sexually active with female partner(s) and not using condom with spermicide combined with an effective method of contraception for their female partner(s) in the period from randomisation visit (V2) until 10 weeks following administration of the investigational medical product.
* Any disorder which in the Investigator's opinion might jeopardise subject's safety, evaluation of results, or compliance with the protocol.
* Current treatment with ezetimibe unless treatment has been with a stable dose for at least 30 days prior to enrolment and expected to remain on this dose for the remainder of the study.
* History (as declared by the subject or reported in the medical records) of heart failure or clinically significant cardiac arrhythmia.
* History (as declared by the subject or reported in the medical records) of myocardial infarction, unstable angina, coronary artery bypass graft, percutaneous coronary intervention, peripheral vascular or cerebrovascular disease within 12 months prior to enrolment
