Official title

A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial of Lepodisiran to Investigate the Effect on Coronary Plaque in Adults With Elevated Lp(a) Who Have Established Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease or Are at Risk for a First Cardiovascular Event

Overview

Lipoprotein(a), also known as Lp(a), is a protein that carries cholesterol and proteins in your blood. People with high Lp(a) have a higher risk for heart disease. The main purpose of the study is to investigate how lepodisiran, compared to a placebo, affects the amount and type of plaque in the heart's vessels using an imaging technology known as Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography (CCTA) in adults who have high levels of Lp(a). Participation will last about 120 weeks.

Interventions

  • Drug Lepodisiran
    Administered SC
  • Drug Placebo
    Administered SC

Primary outcome measures

  • Percent Change from Baseline in Noncalcified Plaque (NCP) Volume [Time frame: Baseline, Week 104]
Secondary outcome measures (4)
  • Percent Change from Baseline in Mean Fat Attenuation Index (FAI) Score [Time frame: Baseline, Week 104]
  • Percent Change from Baseline in Lp(a) Level [Time frame: Baseline through Week 104]
  • Percentage of Participants Reporting Strongly Agree or Agree on the Subcutaneous Administration Assessment Questionnaire (SQAAQ) Version 3.0 Items [Time frame: Week 26, Week 78]
  • Pharmacokinetics (PK): Area Under the Concentration Versus Time Curve from Time Zero to Infinity (AUC[0-inf]) of LY3819469 [Time frame: Predose through Week 52]

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion criteria

  • Have an Lp(a) ≥175 nmol/L
  • Have established cardiovascular (CV) disease or are at risk for a first CV event
  • Have angiographic evidence of coronary artery disease on screening CCTA
  • If taking lipid-lowering medications, inclusive of statins or prescription strength niacin and PCSK9 inhibitors, these should be stable for 8 weeks

Exclusion criteria

  • Have had a major CV event less than 60 days before measurement of the Lp(a) level used for eligibility or uncontrolled high blood pressure at screening
  • Have moderate to severe renal dysfunction
  • Have severe heart failure
  • Have a history of coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG)
  • Have a planned coronary angiography, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), coronary artery bypass graft, or valvular intervention
  • Have had a procedure to remove lipoproteins from the blood or received therapy specifically targeting Lp(a)
  • Are unable to safely undergo CCTA due to medication intolerance, contrast allergies, or anatomical/technical factors

Criteria are shown verbatim from the registry (in English). Final eligibility is always assessed by the study center.
