Summary

This study is a phase IV, open-label, randomized study designed to evaluate the efficacy of Inclisiran vs. bempedoic acid (BPA) in 400 adult subjects (≥ 18 years) at very high and high risk for cardiovascular events as defined by the cardiovascular risk categories in the 2019 ESC/EAS guidelines for the management of dyslipidemias (Mach et al 2020) and elevated levels of LDL-C (≥ 70 mg/dL) despite being on a maximally tolerated high-intensity (HI) statin dose (+/- Ezetimibe). Currently, BPA is recommended ahead of injectables by German HTA body (GBA). A head-to-head trial is proposed to provide robust scientific data on the superiority of Inclisiran vs. BPA and to support the early use of Inclisiran.
