About this study

Official title: Effect of PCSK9 Inhibitor on Acute Coronary Syndrome Patients With Multivessel Disease and Relatively Low LDL-C Level in Chinese Population (CHOICE Study)

The study is an open-label, multicenter, and randomized study. The objective of this study is to demonstrate the effect of PCSK9 inhibitor on ACS patients with multivessel disease and relatively low LDL-C levels or LDL-C levels lower than the recommended target.

The primary outcome was the rate of major adverse cardiac events (CV death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, documented unstable angina that requires admission into a hospital, all coronary revascularization with either PCI or CABG occurring at least 30 days after randomization, Non-fatal stroke) at 1 year. The secondary efficacy endpoints were individual components of the major adverse cardiac events, all cause death, and the percent change in LDL-C, Apo B, HDL-C, Lp(a) after treatment.

Being tested
Repatha or Praluent

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Repatha or PraluentDrug

    Also called Evolocumab or Alirocumab

    Evolocumab (Repatha®) 140 mg or Alirocumab (Praluent) 75mg every two weeks, first subcutaneous injection at the time of randomization, followings during 12 months

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Primary Endpoint

    The primary endpoint in the CHOICE study was the rate of major adverse cardiac events at 1 year. The definition of major adverse cardiac events was a composite of:

    • CV death
    • Major coronary events 1) non-fatal myocardial infarction [MI]; 2)documented unstable angina that requires admission into a hospital; 3)all coronary revascularization with either PCI or CABG occurring at least 30 days after randomization)
    • Non-fatal stroke

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Secondary Endpoint

    The secondary efficacy endpoints were individual components of the major adverse cardiac events, all cause death, and the percent change in LDL-C, Apo B, HDL-C, Lp(a) at 1 year.

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Secondary Endpoint

    the percent change in LDL-C, Apo B, HDL-C, Lp(a) at 1 year.

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Repatha or Praluent in people with Acute Coronary Syndrome, run by Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Sep 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Primary Endpoint (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Sep 2021.
