About this trial

The purpose of this trial is to learn about the effects of inclisiran in people with serious heart conditions (acute coronary syndromes), when this treatment is started early after hospital admission. To do this, researchers will test the effects of inclisiran compared to placebo, when given with standard treatment.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Signed informed consent must be obtained prior to participation in the study.

Males and females, ≥18 years of age at the time of providing written informed consent.

Ability to understand study's requirements and provide informed consent and comply with all required study procedures.

Hospitalization for a ACS event (STEMI or NSTEMI).

Disqualifiers

Hemodynamic instability: hypotension, defined as sustained systolic blood pressure of <90 mmHg due to cardiac failure with associated symptoms requiring inotropes

Sustained arrhythmic events such as: ventricular storm (e.g., torsade, ventricular tachycardia, ventricular flutter) not resolved before randomization

Cardiogenic shock or mechanical complication of myocardial infarction

New York Heart Association (NYHA) class IV heart failure

Group B: Matching placebo + Standard treatmentPlacebo comparator 1 intervention

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Percent change in LDL-C

To demonstrate the superiority of inclisiran treatment compared to placebo, when initiated before/at discharge, in combination with standard of care (SoC) (statin therapy +/- LLT (Lipid Lowering Therapy) or non-statin treatment in case of documented statin intolerance) on LDL-C reduction at Day 150

Time frame
From baseline to Day 150

Secondary outcomes

1

Participants achieving LDL-C <70 mg/dL (yes, no)

To assess the proportion of participants reaching pre-specified LDL-C target (\<70 mg/dL) on inclisiran treatment compared to placebo, on top of SoC

Time frame
At Day 90 and Day 150
2

Participants achieving LDL-C <55 mg/dL (yes, no)

To assess the proportion of participants reaching pre-specified LDL-C target (\<55 mg/dL) on inclisiran treatment compared to placebo, on top of SoC

Time frame
At Day 90 and Day 150
3

Participants achieving LDL-C <100 mg/dL (yes, no) (among the subset of participants with LDL-C ≥100 mg/dL at baseline)

To assess the proportion of participants reaching pre-specified LDL-C target (\<100 mg/dL) on inclisiran treatment compared to placebo, on top of SoC

Time frame
At Day 90 and Day 150
4

Participants achieving ≥50% reduction from baseline in LDL-C (yes, no)

To assess the proportion of participants reaching pre-specified LDL-C target (≥50% reduction from baseline) on inclisiran treatment compared to placebo, on top of SoC

Time frame
At Day 90 and Day 150
