Brief Summary

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

This is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-centre, sequential Phase II and Phase III study that will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and PK of AZD0780 administered orally for up to 52 weeks in participants with elevated LDL-C. The study consist of 2 separate parts (Part A and Part B) approximately 60 participants will be randomised in Part A. There will be 2 cohorts in Part B (approximately 220 participants in Cohort 1 and 100 participants in Cohort 2).

Detailed Description

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

The planned study includes 2 parts. Part A will be the Phase II study and aims to evaluate the PK, PD, safety, and tolerability of AZD0780. Part B will be the Phase III study and aims to evaluate the reduction of LDL-C as well as the safety and tolerability after oral administration of AZD0780 on background lipid-lowing therapy including moderate to high-intensity statins.

For Part A, approximately 60 participants who meet the eligibility criteria will be randomised. Part A will comprise 4 periods totalling up to 80 days.

For Part B, approximately 220 participants who meet the eligibility criteria will be randomised in Cohort 1, and approximately 100 participants who meet the eligibility criteria will be randomised in Cohort 2.

Cohort 1: participants are on a stable dose of LLTs, including moderate to high-intensity statins for≥ 28 days before screening.

Cohort 2: participants could be with moderate-intensity or without statins therapy (not due to statin intolerance) in background LLTs or not on any LLTs .
