SHR-1918 to lower LDL cholesterol and triglycerides in adults with hyperlipidemia
Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Phase III Clinical Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of SHR-1918 in Patients With Hyperlipidemia
Run by Beijing Suncadia Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd · NCT07230730 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This trial tests whether SHR-1918 can further lower LDL cholesterol and triglycerides in adults with hyperlipidemia who are already on a stable statin dose.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults aged 18 or older with hyperlipidemia who are on a stable statin dose, have LDL-C above risk-specific thresholds, and fasting triglycerides between 2.3 and 5.6 mmol/L are the intended participants.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with poorly controlled hypertension, marked liver enzyme elevations, low TSH, triglycerides outside the required range, or those unable to attend the single trial site are unlikely to be eligible or benefit from participation.

What this trial studies
This phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled trial compares SHR-1918 with matching placebo in adults with hyperlipidemia on stable statin therapy. Eligible participants meet LDL-C thresholds based on ASCVD risk category and have fasting triglycerides between 2.3 and 5.6 mmol/L; they receive study drug or placebo and undergo regular lipid measurements. Safety monitoring includes liver enzymes and thyroid function, and participants with poorly controlled hypertension or significant liver enzyme elevations are excluded. The trial is being conducted at The Second Affiliated Hospital Zhejiang University School of Medicine in Hangzhou and requires informed consent and on-site visits.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, SHR-1918 could offer an additional option to lower both LDL cholesterol and triglycerides for patients already taking statins.
How similar studies have gone: Other lipid-lowering drug classes have demonstrated reductions in LDL-C and triglycerides in prior trials, but SHR-1918 represents a distinct investigational agent and large-scale phase 3 data are still limited.
