About this trial

For patients with ACS undergoing PCI, intensive lipid-lowering including PCSK9 monoclonal antibody should be started as soon as possible, that is, lower LDL-C level should be achieved as soon as possible. Compared with conventional lipid-lowering regimen, it is expected that the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events can still be reduced after drug discontinuation. Therefore, the optimization strategy of "for patients with ACS undergoing PCI, intensive lipid-lowering with PCSK9 monoclonal antibody can be started as soon as possible" is proposed.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patients aged 18 to 75 years;

clinical diagnosis with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) ;

undergoing PCI

baseline LDL-C 1.8 mmol/L 3.4 mmol/L note: NSTE-ACS includes non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction and unstable angina.

Disqualifiers

Severe heart failure (Killip III or IV) or cardiogenic shock;

Previous hemorrhagic cerebrovascular disease history;

Uncontrolled or recurrent arrhythmic events;

poorly controlled hypertension;

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Tafolecimab

    Drug

    The PCSK9 mAb in this study is defined as Tafolecimab 150mg q2w subcutaneously. For the two groups of lipid-lowering regimens, the lipid-lowering drug regimens other than PCSK9 mAb were maintained throughout the study as much as possible in accordance with the guidelines related to blood lipids, provided that no serious safety problems occurred.

  • Cholesterol Absorption Inhibitor

    Drug

    Cholesterol absorption inhibitors (like Ezetimibe and Hybutimibe) are based on physician decisions, but need to be routinely dosed. Examples of Medications that Meet Study Requirements: Ezetimibe 10mg Po qd.

  • Statin

    Drug

    Statin are based on physician decisions, but need to be routinely dosed. Examples of Medications that Meet Study Requirements: Atorvastatin 20mg Po qn, Rosuvastatin 10mg Po qn or Pitavastatin 4mg Po qn.
