EU CTIS ID: 2023-506197-12-00
What this study is testing
To evaluate the effect of different doses of AZD0780 on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) versus placebo in “ideal” scenarios in which intercurrent events would not occur.
- Therapeutic exploratory (Phase II)

Who can take part
You may be able to join if
- Males, and females of non-childbearing potential, 18 to 75 years of age, inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent.
- Participants with a fasting low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) ≥ 70 mg/dL (1.8 mmol/L) and ≤ 190 mg/dL (4.9 mmol/L) at screening.
- Participants with fasting triglycerides < 400 mg/dL (< 4.52 mmol/L) at screening.
- Should be receiving moderate or high-intensity statin therapy for ≥ 2 months prior to screening, according to ACC/AHA guidelines on blood cholesterol management, or to local guidelines, eg, Japanese Atherosclerosis Society guidelines
- There should be no planned medication or dose change during study participation.
- Body mass index at or above 19.0 kg/m^2.
You likely can't join if
- Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 45 mL/min/1.73m^2 using the Chronic Kidney Disease-Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-Epi 2021(Age, Sex)) equation at Visit 1.
- Uncontrolled hypertension defined as average sitting systolic blood pressure (SBP) > 160 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) > 90 mmHg at Visit 1. It is recommended that antihypertensive treatment should be considered/initiated at the principal investigator’s discretion and in accordance with applicable clinical guidelines in order to optimize blood pressure for participants with hypertension during the clinical study.
- Heart rate after 10 minutes supine rest < 50 bpm or > 100 bpm at Visit 1
- Any laboratory values with the following deviations at Screening Visit 1; test may be repeated at the discretion of the investigator if abnormal: (a) Any positive result on screening for hepatitis B, hepatitis C, or Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). (b) Alanine Aminotransferase/Transaminase (ALT) > 1.5 × Upper Level of Normal (ULN) (c) Aspartate Aminotransferase/Transaminase (AST) > 1.5 × ULN (d) Total Bilirubin (TBL) > ULN (e) Hemoglobin < 12 g/dL in men or < 11 g/dL in women (f) Potassium < LLN
- Any clinically important abnormalities in rhythm, conduction or morphology of the resting electrocardiogram (ECG) and any clinically important abnormalities in the 12 lead ECG as judged by the investigator including shortened QTcF< 340ms; family history of long QT syndrome; PR interval shortening < 120 ms; PR interval prolongation >220 ms, intermittent second or third degree AV block or AV dissociation; persistent or intermittent complete bundle branch block, incomplete bundle branch, or interventricular conduction delay with QRS > 110 ms.
- Corrected QT Interval (QTcF) > 450 ms; high degree atrioventricular-block grade II-III and sinus node dysfunction with significant sinus pause untreated with pacemaker; and cardiac tachyarrhythmias.
