Brief Summary

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

This was a placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized trial in Japanese participants with history of coronary artery disease (CAD) or participants categorized in 'high risk' by JAS 2017 guideline, or Japanese participants with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH) and elevated Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) despite maximum tolerated dose of statin(s) to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and PK of subcutaneous inclisiran injection(s).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The expected duration of the participants' involvement in the study was approximately 374 days which included screening (up to 14 days), Day 1 study drug administration, two additional injections on Day 90 and Day 270, and the follow-up period to Day 360.

The primary analysis was conducted after all participants had finished Day 180 visit assessments or discontinued before Day 180 visit.

After the primary analysis, double-blind treatment period were maintained to Day 360, although specific sponsor members (except for blinded monitors) were unblinded for the regulatory submission in Japan.

Eligibility Criteria

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

Inclusion Criteria

* As per the JAS 2017 guideline, participants not meeting the LDL-C management targets.
* Participants on statins should be receiving a maximally tolerated dose.
* Participants not receiving statins must have documented evidence of intolerance to at least one statin.
* The lipid-lowering therapy should have remained stable for ≥ 30 days before screening with no planned medication/ dose change until Day 180

Exclusion Criteria

* Participants diagnosed with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH).
* Treatment (within 90 days of screening) with monoclonal antibodies directed towards PCSK9.
* New York Heart Association (NYHA) class IV heart failure or last known left ventricular ejection fraction \<25%.
* Cardiac arrhythmia within 3 months prior to randomization that is not controlled by medication or via ablation.
* Uncontrolled hypertension: systolic blood pressure \>160 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure \>100 mmHg prior to randomization despite antihypertensive therapy.
* Active liver disease defined as any known current infectious, neoplastic, or metabolic pathology of the liver or unexplained elevations in alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), \>3x the upper limit of normal (ULN), or total bilirubin \>2x ULN at screening.
* Severe concomitant non-cardiovascular disease that carries the risk of reducing life expectancy to less than 2 years.
