EU CTIS ID: 2024-514594-21-00
What this study is testing
The primary objective is to demonstrate superiority of inclisiran compared to placebo in reducing LDL-C [percent change] at Day 330 (Year 1) in children (aged 6 to <12 years) with HeFH and elevated LDL-C
- Therapeutic confirmatory (Phase III)

Who can take part
You may be able to join if
- Male or female participants, 6 to <12 years of age at screening
- HeFH diagnosed either by genetic testing or on phenotypic criteria
- Fasting LDL-C >130 mg/dL (3.4 mmol/L) at screening
- For participants 8 to <12 years, on an optimal dose of statin (investigator’s discretion) unless statin intolerant, with or without other lipid-lowering therapy (e.g. ezetimibe). For participants <8 years, the use of background lipid-lowering treatment is based on investigator’s discretion.
- Participants on lipid-lowering therapies (such as statin and/or e.g. ezetimibe) must be on a stable dose for ≥30 days before screening with no planned medication or dose changes during study participation.
You likely can't join if
- Previous treatment (within 90 days of screening) with monoclonal antibodies directed towards PCSK9
- Secondary hypercholesterolemia, e.g. hypothyroidism or nephrotic syndrome
- Homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH)
- Body weight <16 kg at the screening and/or randomization (Day 1) visit
- Active liver disease defined as any known current infectious, neoplastic, or metabolic pathology of the liver or unexplained alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) elevation >3x ULN, or total bilirubin elevation >2x ULN (except patients with Gilbert’s syndrome)
- Pregnant or nursing females
