Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
LDL Cholesterol
Interventions
Biological: LIB003
Registration Number
NCT03549260

Brief Summary

Study to assess the LDL-C lowering efficacy of different doses of LIB003 administered every 4 weeks in subjects on stable statin and/or ezetimibe therapy

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percent reduction in Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C) at week 12baseline to 12 weeks

Change in serum LDL-C from baseline after 12 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percent reduction in apolipoprotein B (Apo B) at week 12baseline to 12 weeks

Change in serum Apo B from baseline after 12 weeks

Percent reduction in lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] at week 12baseline to 12 weeks

Change in serum Lp(a) from baseline after 12 weeks

Percent reduction in free PCSK9 at week 12baseline to 12 weeks

Change in serum free PCSK9 from baseline after 12 weeks

Presence of anti LIB003 antibodies (ADAs)baseline to 12 weeks

Measurement of ADAs at baseline and various intervals

The incidence and severity of treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs)baseline to 12 weeks

safety and tolerability will be based on the incidence and severity of treatment emergent adverse events
