CKJX839D12302 is a pivotal Phase III study designed to test the hypothesis that treatment with inclisiran sodium 300 milligram (mg) subcutaneous (s.c.) administered on Day 1, Day 90, and every 6 months thereafter in patients at high cardiovascular (CV) risk without a prior major atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) event will significantly reduce the risk of 4-Point-Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events (4P-MACE) defined as a composite of CV death, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI), non-fatal ischemic stroke, and urgent coronary revascularization, compared to placebo.
NCT06813911
The purpose of the study CTQJ230A12304, is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of pelacarsen (TQJ230) compared to placebo in participants with ASCVD who have elevated lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)), and who are on background inclisiran treatment for elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C).
NCT06295679
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate real-world effectiveness of treatment with Repatha® in combination with SOC, compared with SOC alone, on the risk for cardiovascular (CV) death, myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, hospitalization for unstable angina, or coronary revascularization, whichever occurs first, in participants with established atherosclerotic CV disease (ASCVD) treated with SOC, according to local clinical practice.

NCT07309042
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of YN001 in combination with rosuvastatin, so as to provide evidence for the feasibility of YN001 combined with statins in subsequent clinical trials.
NCT03705234
ORION-4 is a research study coordinated by the University of Oxford and co-sponsored by The University of Oxford and Novartis (Protocol: CTSU\_MDCO-PCS-17-01 (CKJX839B12301)). The study aims to find out if a new cholesterol-lowering injection (inclisiran) safely lowers the risk of heart attacks and strokes in people who have already had one of these conditions, or who have had an operation or procedure to treat blocked arteries.
NCT04626973
Although the clinical efficacy of LDL-cholesterol lowering therapy has been proven with strong evidences and emphasized, there are also growing concerns that intensive lipid-lowering therapy would be related to increased risk of adverse effects. In addition, statin potency from recent guidelines was set from the studies composed of mainly Caucasian population, although there is an inconsistency of statin effect according to ethnicity. Asian population showed more profound LDL reduction not only from high potent statin but also from moderate to low potent statin. Conventional strategies for lowering LDL-cholesterol focused on statins, therefore doubling of previously described dose of statin would be common way in patients with inadequate LDL-cholesterol levels. Adding ezetimibe will be an alternative strategy not only to lower LDL-cholesterol level and also to reduce the need of dosage of high-intensity statin to achieve sufficient LDL-cholesterol lowering effect. However, studies regarding the effect of intensive-targeting of lipid-lowering therapy and therapy regimens are lacking. Thus, on these basis, we sought to evaluate whether intensive-targeting of lipid-lowering therapy will have more prominent beneficial effect compared to conventional-targeting in patients with documented ASCVD with either an ezetimibe/statin combination therapy or a statin monotherapy.
NCT07203677
Investigators are building an empirical evidence base for real world data through large-scale emulation of randomized controlled trials. The investigators' goal is to understand for what types of clinical questions real world data analyses can be conducted with confidence and how to implement such studies.
NCT05720156
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) represents the leading cause of death worldwide. While medications, such as statins, significantly reduce atherosclerotic CVD (ASCVD) risk by lowering low density lipoprotein levels, they may also have pleiotropic effects on inflammation. The immunomodulatory effects of these medications are relevant to ASCVD risk reduction given that inflammation plays a central role in atherosclerotic plaque formation (atherogenesis) and influences the development of vulnerable plaque morphology. Patients on statins, however, may have residual inflammation contributing to incident ASCVD despite the potent LDL-lowering effects of statins. While new therapies, such as proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PSCK9) inhibitors, further reduce incident ASCVD and drastically reduce LDL-C below that achieved by statin therapy alone, PCSK9 inhibitors may also have pleiotropic effects on inflammation. Thus, PCSK9 inhibitors may help reduce arterial inflammation to a level closer to that of patients without ASCVD. This study will apply a novel targeted molecular imaging approach, technetium 99m (99mTc)-tilmanocept SPECT/CT, to determine if residual macrophage-specific arterial inflammation is present with statin therapy and the immunomodulatory effects of PSCK9 inhibition. Given the continued high mortality and morbidity attributable to ASCVD, strong imperatives exist to better understand the immunomodulatory effects of lipid lowering therapies and residual inflammatory risk. This understanding, in turn, will inform the development of new ASCVD preventative and treatment strategies as well as elucidate other indications for established therapies.
NCT05398029
VT-1001 is an open-label, phase 1b, single-ascending dose study that will evaluate the safety of VERVE-101 administered to patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH), atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), and uncontrolled hypercholesterolemia. VERVE-101 uses base-editing technology designed to disrupt the expression of the PCSK9 gene in the liver and lower circulating PCSK9 and LDL-C in patients with established ASCVD due to HeFH. This study is designed to determine the safety and pharmacodynamic profile of VERVE-101 in this patient population.
NCT06571162
Patients who had an ASCVD event at an Intermountain hospital will be screened for eligibility to be randomized. Subjects who meet eligibility criteria will be randomized 1:1 to receive targeted care of their LDL-C through a pharmacist-driven management program or not. Patients may opt-out of receiving LDL-C management by the pharmacy team at any time. The purpose of this program is to increase the proportion of patients who achieve guideline-based recommendations of LDL-C levels of \<70 mg/dL by increasing statin and/or LLT adherence and LDL-C testing. Data collection as part of the study will continue until the last person randomized has had 1-year of follow-up.
NCT06048588
This study consists of two parts. The SAD and MAD of part I are a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single and multiple ascending dose study in healthy adult subjects. The MAD expansion cohort of part I is single arm and multipal ascending dose in heallthy subjects. Part II (phase Ib/IIa) is a multicenter, randomized, controlled, open label, multiple ascending dose study in patients with coronary atherosclerosis.
NCT06541691
Although both enteric-coated and plain formulations of aspirin are being used commonly, there are no high-quality comparisons between these formulations with respect to clinical efficacy outcomes in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVD). Air pollution is also a major contributor to the excess risk of cardiovascular events in many regions of the world. However, little is known about the effect of individual-level mitigation strategies against air pollution in reducing cardiovascular outcomes. The purpose of the first randomization is to compare the efficacy and safety of enteric-coated versus plain low-dose (81 mg) aspirin formulations in a double-blind fashion. The second randomization compares a multifaceted intervention including one-page educational flashcard, cell phone text messages alerting participants on polluted days, recommending them to stay indoors or wear KN-95 facemasks provided by the study team in case of necessary outdoor activity, and recommendation to consume citrus fruits on polluted days versus usual care. Both randomization are powered for clinical outcomes and the results will inform practice.
NCT06784557
Ezetimibe exerts its primary effects by inhibiting intestinal cholesterol absorption through the NPC1L1 protein. Beyond this, its impact on gut microbiota remains an area of interest. Gut microbiota has been implicated in cholesterol metabolism and CVD pathogenesis through metabolic and non-metabolic pathways. Modulating gut microbiota has been explored as a potential strategy to prevent CVDs. Despite its intestinal mechanism, the influence of ezetimibe on gut microbiota composition has not been thoroughly investigated. Future studies are needed to elucidate its potential interactions with gut microbial communities and their implications for cholesterol metabolism and cardiovascular health.
NCT04807400
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the implementation of inclisiran in a regional primary care setting in the UK Inclisiran, also known as KJX839, is a medication made to reduce the level of "bad" cholesterol (LDL-cholesterol) in the blood. Inclisiran works in a way that makes the liver produce less of a substance called 'PCSK9'. PCSK9 reduces the ability of the liver to remove LDL-cholesterol from the blood. By lowering the production of PCSK9, Inclisiran leads to more LDL-cholesterol being removed by the liver from the blood, thereby reducing LDL-cholesterol overall.
NCT06471803
The current biological issues driving the evolutionary progression of coronary artery disease are in focus: at this stage, the biological evidence for them is scarce and small in scale, with the exception of metabolomics and microbiomics. Issues such as histologic mapping of coronary atherosclerosis deterioration remain to be corroborated by more clinical and basic evidence! By analyzing the clinical data and multi-omics data of patients with coronary heart disease, investigators will explore the related risk factors and establish molecular subtypes and prognostic prediction models for individualized prediction of coronary heart disease risk, in order to guide the clinical screening of high-risk groups of coronary heart disease and formulate more targeted intervention countermeasures.
NCT05202509
This study will be a placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, phase 3 study in participants with Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease (ASCVD) who are not adequately controlled despite maximally tolerated lipid-lowering therapy.
NCT05639244
The goal of this cross over study is to investigate the effect of short term time restricted eating (TRE) on the innate immune system in patients with a history of myocardial infarction.
NCT02931188
There are currently no studies evaluating the effect of anacetrapib on blood vessel function and stiffness of the arteries. The REVEAL-Vasc trial will assess whether anacetrapib, in addition to atorvastatin (LDL-C lowering drug) treatment, results in greater endothelial-dependent vascular function and aortic stiffness in patients with established cardiovascular disease, compared to adding placebo. Participants will be asked to provide a blood sample and pulse Wave Velocity/Pulse Wave Analysis and Flow Mediated Dilation will be carried out to assess blood vessel function and stiffness of the arteries. REVEAL-Vasc is an investigator led sub-study of HPS3/TIMI 55: REVEAL (Randomized Evaluation of the Effects of Anacetrapib through Lipid modification): A large-scale, randomized placebo-controlled trial of the clinical effects of anacetrapib among people with established vascular disease (NCT01252953) which is coordinated by OXFORD CTSU. No treatment will be received on this sub-study, therefore only participants who have been enrolled in HPS3/TIMI55 REVEAL in which participants received anacetrapib with atorvastatin or placebo will be considered for this trial.
