Official title
A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Phase III Clinical Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Bempedoic Acid in Patients With Hyperlipidemia Not Adequately Controlled by Statins
Overview
This trial is a multicenter randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase III study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Bempedoic Acid Tablets in patients with hyperlipidemia not adequately controlled by Statins.
Interventions
- Drug Bempedoic Acid Tablet
bempedoic acid 180 mg tablet taken orally, once daily. Participants in the experiment remain on ongoing lipid-modifying therapy - Drug Placebo
Matching placebo tablet taken orally, once daily. Participants in the experiment remain on ongoing lipid-modifying therapy
Primary outcome measures
- Percentage change from baseline in LDL-C levels at Week 12 [Time frame: Baseline, Week 12]
Secondary outcome measures (3)
- Proportion of participants achieving LDL-C target [Time frame: Baseline, Week 12]
- Percentage change from baseline in non-HDL-C、ApoB、TC、hs-CRP levels at Week 12 [Time frame: Baseline, Week 12]
- Adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) during the study [Time frame: Baseline, Week 13]
