Recruiting PHASE3 Hypercholesterolemia

Tests treatment safety and results for Hypercholesterolemia

Official title A Study on Efficacy and Safety of HST101 in Chinese Patients with Hypercholesterolemia

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06568471

What this study is testing

What is Lerodalcibep?

Lerodalcibep is an investigational medicine, given as a monthly injection under the skin, being studied as a potential treatment for hypercholesterolemia.

Also referred to as HST101, LIB003.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
This randomized study is to assess LDL-C reductions at Week 12 with monthly (Q4W [≤31 days]) dosing of HST101 (lerodalcibep) 300 mg administered subcutaneously (SC) compared to placebo in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) or very-high/high risk for ASCVD including Heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH) on a stable diet and oral LDL-C lowering drug therapy, followed by 36-week open-label treatment with subsequent 4-week follow-up for total 52-week long-term safety and efficacy evaluation.
  • Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
  • You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
