What this trial studies

This multicenter, non-randomized, non-interventional study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Inclisiran and other lipid-lowering treatments in patients with hypercholesterolemia. The study consists of three cohorts: patients newly initiated on oral lipid-lowering treatments alongside statins, those starting Inclisiran, and those receiving Inclisiran in conjunction with lipid apheresis. Data will be collected prospectively as part of routine clinical care, allowing for real-world insights into treatment outcomes.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 and older with hypercholesterolemia, particularly those with a history of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease or those not achieving LDL-C goals.

Not a fit: Patients currently receiving PCSK9-targeted therapies or those with contraindications for Inclisiran may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide valuable information on the effectiveness of Inclisiran and other lipid-lowering therapies in managing cholesterol levels and reducing cardiovascular risk.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown success with similar lipid-lowering approaches, particularly in the context of managing cholesterol levels and cardiovascular risk.
