Evaluating Repatha® with Standard Care for Heart Disease in Chinese Patients

A Real-world, Prospective, Observational Study Assessing the Effectiveness of Repatha® Used in Combination With Standard of Care Compared With Standard of Care Alone on Major Cardiovascular Events in Chinese Patients With Established Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease

Observational Amgen · NCT06295679

This study is testing if adding Repatha® to regular heart disease treatment can help Chinese patients reduce serious heart problems compared to just standard care alone.

What this trial studies

This study assesses the real-world effectiveness of Repatha® when used alongside standard care compared to standard care alone in reducing major cardiovascular events in Chinese patients with established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. It focuses on outcomes such as cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, hospitalization for unstable angina, and coronary revascularization. Participants must be adults who have either been prescribed Repatha® or have received standard care treatment prior to enrollment, with specific cardiovascular conditions outlined in the eligibility criteria.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 and older with a history of myocardial infarction or stroke, or those with diabetes and cardiovascular disease.

Not a fit: Patients without established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease or those not meeting the specific cardiovascular history criteria may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide insights into the effectiveness of Repatha® in reducing serious cardiovascular events in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promising results with similar approaches in evaluating the effectiveness of combination therapies for cardiovascular diseases.
