Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Dyslipidemia
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT02642159
Lead Sponsor
Sanofi
Brief Summary

Primary Objective:

To demonstrate the superiority of alirocumab in comparison with usual care in the reduction of non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) in participants with type 2 diabetes and mixed dyslipidemia at high cardiovascular risk with non-HDL-C not adequately controlled with maximally tolerated statin therapy.

Secondary Objectives:

* To demonstrate whether alirocumab is superior in comparison with usual care in its effects on other lipid parameters (ie, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), apolipoprotein B (Apo B), total cholesterol (Total -C), lipoprotein a (Lp\[a\]), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), triglycerides (TGs), triglyceride rich lipoproteins (TGRLs), apolipoprotein A-1 (Apo A-1), apolipoprotein C-III (Apo C-III), lipid subfractions by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy (ie, LDL-C particle size and LDL, very low-density lipoprotein \[VLDL\], HDL, and intermediate-density lipoprotein \[IDL\] particle number).

* To assess changes in glycemic parameters with alirocumab vs. usual care treatment.

* To demonstrate the safety and tolerability of alirocumab.

* To evaluate treatment acceptance of alirocumab.

* To evaluate proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 (PCSK9) concentrations and antibody development.

* To demonstrate the superiority of alirocumab vs. fenofibrate on non-HDL-C and other lipid parameters (subgroup analysis).

Detailed Description

The maximum study duration was approximately 9 months per participant, including a 6 month treatment period, a screening period of up to 3 weeks, and an 8 week safety observation period.

For the purpose of scientific communication, a first-step analysis (both efficacy and safety) was performed at the Week 24 cut-off date. A second-step analysis was performed once all participants had completed the study to include a final update of the safety analysis.
