SYH2070 injection for homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia
Official title: A Multicenter, Open-label Phase II Clinical Trial Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of SYH2070 Injection in Chinese Participants With Homozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia
Run by CSPC Zhongnuo Pharmaceutical (Shijiazhuang) Co., Ltd. · NCT07591298 · Data updated 2026-11-12
A phase 2 study tests SYH2070 injections in adults with HoFH who are already on lipid-lowering therapy to see if it helps lower their cholesterol safely.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults 18 years and older with genetically or clinically confirmed HoFH, on stable lipid-lowering therapy, and LDL-C ≥ 2.6 mmol/L.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with heterozygous FH, uncontrolled comorbidities, or those not achieving lipid targets on stable treatment may not benefit.

What this trial studies
This is a multicenter, open-label phase II trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of SYH2070 injection in adults with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH) who are on stable lipid-lowering treatment. Approximately 18 participants will be enrolled and followed to assess lipid outcomes and safety signals. The study uses two dosing regimens to explore short-term responses while monitoring tolerability in a real-world patient population. Eligible participants have confirmed HoFH, LDL-C above a threshold, and stable concomitant therapies; key exclusions include heterozygous FH and uncontrolled comorbid conditions. The trial is sponsored by CSPC Zhongnuo Pharmaceutical with sites at The Second Xiangya Hospital in Changsha, China.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, SYH2070 could provide an additional treatment option to help lower LDL cholesterol in HoFH patients beyond standard therapy.
How similar studies have gone: Previous studies of similar approaches in HoFH have shown potential lipid-lowering effects in selected patients, but this specific SYH2070 approach is novel.

2. Genetic diagnosis or clinical diagnosis of HoFH.
3. Receiving stable and tolerable lipid-lowering treatment or other drugs for chronic disease treatment for certain periods before the study, and maintaining the stable -treatments throughout the study.

Exclusion Criteria:
1. The genetic diagnosis was for heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia;
2. During the screening process, the participant has uncontrolled other diseases that affect blood lipids or lipoproteins (such as nephrotic syndrome, severe liver diseases, glycogen storage disease, systemic lupus erythematosus, Cushing's syndrome, etc.) that the researchers believed would interfere with the accurate assessment of the study validity;
3. The participant has received or is receiving monoclonal antibodies targeting ANGPTL3 within 5 months or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) before the LDL-C test during the screening period;
4. Within 12 months before the LDL-C test during the screening period, use of any ASO or siRNA type drugs;
5. Those who used any of the following treatments within the specified time limit before the LDL-C test: 1) mipomersen (within 5 months); 2) bepatide acid (within 4 weeks); 3) lipid purification or plasma exchange (within 8 weeks); 4) liver transplantation or CRISPR-based gene editing treatment (at any time);
6. During the screening period, within 5 months or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to the LDL-C test, the subject had received significant medications other than lipid-lowering drugs that affected LDL-C levels (such as oral or intravenous glucocorticoids, tacrolimus, cyclosporine, sirolimus, estrogens, vitamin A derivatives, antidepressants, etc.);
7. At the time of screening, the subject was using medications for thyroid disorders and the use of thyroid disorder medications was stable for less than 12 weeks before the LDL-C test;
8. History of allergic or suspected allergic reactions to oligonucleotide drugs or excipients of investigational drugs;
9. History of having a serious adverse cardiovascular event within 180 days before randomization (such as myocardial infarction, stroke or cerebrovascular event, unstable angina pectoris, deterioration of heart failure or hospitalization);
10. History of having uncontrolled (after drug or ablation therapy) or severe arrhythmias (such as atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular rate, recurrent or persistent supraventricular or ventricular tachycardia) within 180 days before randomization;
11. History of having NYHA class Ⅲ-Ⅳ grade heart failure or left ventricular ejection fraction \<30% within 1 year before randomization or at the time of screening;
12. History of having type 1 diabetes at the time of screening, or had type 2 diabetes and was using hypoglycemic drugs, and the use of hypoglycemic drugs was stable for less than 12 weeks before the LDL-C test.
13. History of malignancy (except for cured skin basal cell cancer, etc.) or potential malignancy within the previous 5 years before randomization or at the time of screening;
14. Major surgery (including CABG, etc.) was performed within 180 days before randomization or was planned to be performed during the study period;
15. History of drug abuse or alcohol abuse within 1 year before randomization;
16. Within 90 days before LDL-C testing during the screening period or within 5 half-lives (whichever is longer), the participant has received or plans to receive other clinical research treatments (drugs or devices) during the study period;
17. During the screening period, the participant met any of the following criteria:
