Intravascular Imaging Study of the Effect of Inclisiran on Plaque in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction
- Conditions
- Plaque, Atherosclerotic
- Interventions
- Registration Number
- NCT06372925
- Lead Sponsor
- Novartis Pharmaceuticals
- Brief Summary
This study is to evaluate the effect of Inclisiran on coronary atherosclerosis using intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) in patients with acute myocardial infarction and elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C).
- Detailed Description
This study will be a multi-center, randomized, parallel-group, open-label, phase 4 study. Participants will be approximately 318 Chinese adults diagnosed with new-onset STEMI/NSTEMI and elevated LDL-C (LDL-C \> 1.8 mmol/L if on stable dose of statin (with or without ezetimibe) for ≥ 4 weeks; LDL-C \> 2.6 mmol/L if not on stable dose of statin (with or without ezetimibe) for ≥ 4 weeks). Participants will be 1:1 randomized to investigational group (Inclisiran 284mg + 20mg atorvastatin) or control group (20mg atorvastatin) for 360 days. Participants and investigator will be unblinded to the identity of the treatment from the time of randomization. Independent Review Committee (IRC) staff performing the study assessments (IVUS and OCT analysis) will be blinded to the identity of the treatment from the time of randomization until final database lock.

-
Written informed consent must be obtained.
- Familial hypercholesterolemia or secondary hypercholesterolemia.
- Clinically instable AMI (hemodynamic or electrical instability).
- Left main disease, defined as ≥ 50% diameter stenosis of the left main coronary artery by coronary angiography.
- Three-vessel disease, defined as ≥ 70% diameter stenosis of 3 major epicardial coronary vessels or in major branches of these arteries by coronary angiography.
- Have a plan for interventional procedure within 12 months after signing ICF.
- Known intolerance to Atorvastatin OR known statin intolerance.

- Patients not suitable for IVUS/OCT evaluation (e.g., significant calcification , etc) judged by the investigator.
- Patients qualify for coronary artery bypass surgery at screening and history of coronary artery bypass surgery.
- Cardiac disorders:
- Uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia, defined as recurrent and symptomatic ventricular tachycardia or atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response not controlled by medications in the past 3 months prior to screening; 2) Pacemaker or ICD in situ; and/or 3) Uncontrolled severe hypertension with systolic blood pressure >180 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure >110 mmHg prior to randomization despite antihypertensive therapy.
-
Rapid lipid test triglyceride (TG) level > 400mg/dL (4.5 mmol/L) at screening.
-
Active liver disease defined as any known current infectious, neoplastic, or metabolic pathology of the liver or unexplained elevations in alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), > 3x the upper limit of normal (ULN), or total bilirubin > 2x ULN before the randomization.
-
Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 30 mL/min/1.73m2(Calculated according to the modified MDRD equation).

-
History of hypersensitivity to any study drug or its excipients. 19. Any uncontrolled or serious disease, or any medical or surgical condition, that may either interfere with participation in the clinical study and/or put the participant at significant risk according to investigator's judgment.
-

-
Any conditions that according to the investigator could interfere with the conduct of the study.
