Brief Summary

The recommended first-line treatment of cardiovascular disease is a statin monotherapy; however, combination therapies represent an opportunity for an individualized, patient centered approach to low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) lowering and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk reduction in patients unable to reach individualized serum LDL-C levels. This study will test the bioequivalence of a test fixed dose combination (FDC) product versus the co-administered individual reference products.

Detailed Description

Monotherapies for lowering LDL-C often do not achieve target lipid levels because they act on a single pathway, which may be insufficient in patients with high cardiovascular risk or complex lipid profiles. Triple combination therapies, targeting multiple mechanisms of cholesterol metabolism simultaneously, have demonstrated superior LDL-C reduction and better achievement of guideline recommended LDL-C goals. Additionally, combining treatments into a single regimen can improve patient adherence and compliance, further enhancing clinical outcomes.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Pharmacokinetic Parameter Area Under the Curve (AUC)Pre-dose (t=0h), and at 0.17 hours (10 minutes), 0.5 hours, 0.75 hours, 1 hour, 1.5 hours, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, 8 hours, 10 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours (Day 2), 48 hours (Day 3), and 72 hours (Day 4) postdose

Area under the curve (AUC) from time of dosing (t=0h) to time 72 hours (AUC72h) or AUC from time of dosing (t=0h) to the time of last measurable (non-zero) concentration (AUClast) will be assessed using noncompartmental methods.

Pharmacokinetic Parameter Maximum Observed Concentration (Cmax)Pre-dose (t=0h), and at 0.17 hours (10 minutes), 0.5 hours, 0.75 hours, 1 hour, 1.5 hours, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, 8 hours, 10 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours (Day 2), 48 hours (Day 3), and 72 hours (Day 4) postdose

Pharmacokinetic Parameters (AUClast/AUCinf)Pre-dose (t=0h), and at 0.17 hours (10 minutes), 0.5 hours, 0.75 hours, 1 hour, 1.5 hours, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, 8 hours, 10 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours (Day 2), 48 hours (Day 3), and 72 hours (Day 4) postdose

AUClast/AUCinf will be assessed using noncompartmental methods, where applicable.

Pharmacokinetic Parameter Time to Reach Maximum Observed Concentration (Tmax)Pre-dose (t=0h), and at 0.17 hours (10 minutes), 0.5 hours, 0.75 hours, 1 hour, 1.5 hours, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, 8 hours, 10 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours (Day 2), 48 hours (Day 3), and 72 hours (Day 4) postdose

Time to reach maximum observed concentration (Tmax) will be assessed.

Pharmacokinetic Parameter Terminal Half-life (t1/2)Pre-dose (t=0h), and at 0.17 hours (10 minutes), 0.5 hours, 0.75 hours, 1 hour, 1.5 hours, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, 8 hours, 10 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours (Day 2), 48 hours (Day 3), and 72 hours (Day 4) postdose

Terminal half-life (t1/2) will be assessed using noncompartmental methods, where applicable.

Pharmacokinetic Parameter First Order Rate Constant Associated With The Terminal Portion of the Concentration-Time Curve (Kel)Pre-dose (t=0h), and at 0.17 hours (10 minutes), 0.5 hours, 0.75 hours, 1 hour, 1.5 hours, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, 8 hours, 10 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours (Day 2), 48 hours (Day 3), and 72 hours (Day 4) postdose
