Brief Summary

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

Investigators aimed to evaluate efficacy and safety of early Initiation of evolocumab and combination lipid-lowering agent (statin + Ezetimibe) on lipid profiles changes in patients with ACS undergoing PCI

Detailed Description

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

Recently, studies have reported that strong LDL cholesterol lowering through PCSK9 inhibitors early in patients with acute myocardial infarction under coronary intervention results in plaque stability as well as plaque regression, which is the cause of arteriosclerosis in the coronary artery. However, the LDL cholesterol reduction effect on statin is different from that of Westerners and Asians, and studies on the LDL cholesterol reduction effect of Koreans on the early use of PCSK9 inhibitors are insufficient. Therefore, we would like to study the effect of reducing LDL cholesterol by administering Evolocumab early after the procedure in patients who underwent percutaneous coronary stent insertion for acute coronary syndrome in the real world.

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

The experimental and control groups consist of patients undergoing stenting for acute coronary syndrome and will be randomized to receive early evolocumab along with statin/ezetimibe use or no evolocumab. Rosuvastatin 5 mg and Ezetimibe 10 mg are administered to both the experimental group and the control group.
