简要总结

The study is testing the effect of ziltivekimab on reducing plaque in the blood vessels of the heart, specifically aiming to manage or reduce atherosclerotic plaque. The purpose of the study is to determine whether ziltivekimab can effectively reduce this plaque. Participants will either receive ziltivekimab (the active medicine) or a placebo (a dummy medicine with no effect on the body), with the treatment assignment decided by chance. It is important to note that ziltivekimab is not yet approved in any country or region worldwide; therefore, it is a new medicine that doctors cannot prescribe. The study will last for about 15 months.

  • Angiographic evidence of a reduction in lumen diameter between >20 and <50 percent (%) by angiographic visual estimation.

  • Study vessel must not have undergone previous PCI within the study segment.
  • A vessel which is candidate for intervention at the time of qualifying PCI or over the following 6 months in the judgment of the Investigator, cannot be a study vessel.

  • 6. Ability to understand the requirements of the study and to provide informed consent
  • Willingness to undergo follow-up intracoronary imaging.
  • Possibility for randomisation and administration of the loading dose as early as possible after invasive procedure and latest within 48 hours after index PCI.
  • Two study segments may be obtained in the same vessel (e.g. two study segments in the Right Coronary Artery [RCA] or Left Circumflex Artery [LCX]), at the investigators discretion, considering vessel anatomy (e.g. left or right dominance), and where suitable landmarks between segments are at least 40 mm apart and with vessel wall irregularities.
