About this study
Official title: Short-term Effect of Modified 、Low-dose Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9 Inhibitor Combined With Stains on Serum Lipids in Chinese Population With Acute Coronary Syndrome : the Singe-center 、Real-world Study
A total of 100 patients aged 18-85 years old with a definite diagnosis of ACS were admitted to the Department of Cardiovascular, The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University. These patients had fasting serum low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C) >1.8mmol/L (70mg/dL) and were divided into three groups according to the lipid-lowering regimen used: a total of 50 people in the statin-only group received a daily oral medium-dose statin (atorvastatin 20mg qn or rosuvastatin 10mg qn); a total of 30 people in the statin + one injection group per month received oral atorvastatin 20mg qn or rosuvastatin 10mg qn + once a month, subcutaneous injection of 1 injection of PCSK9 inhibitor each time; the remaining 20 people were divided into statin + two injections per month group, oral atorvastatin 20mg qn or rosuvastatin 10mg qn + twice a month, subcutaneous injection of 1 injection of PCSK9 inhibitor each time. We followed up the blood lipid levels of these patients at different time points (one month,three month, six month), including TC, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C,taking the LDL-C reduction ≥50% from the baseline, LDL-C<1.8mmol/L (70mg/dL), and LDL-C<1.4mmol/L (55mg/dL) as the the compliance standard, the blood lipid compliance rates of the three groups at the 6th month of treatment were calculated respectively. The adverse drug reactions of the patients during follow-up were recorded.
Read the detailed description
Purpose:The purpose of this study was to explore the short-term effect of a modified, lower-than-guideline-recommended doses of PCSK9 inhibitors combined with a statin in the treatment of dyslipidemia in Chinese with the acute coronary syndrome (ACS), to provide evidence for the use of this drug in real-world Chinese populations. This study will provide more economical, convenient, and acceptable treatment options.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 4 study testing Statin and PCSK9 inhibitor in people with Acute Coronary Syndrome, run by The First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University at 1 site in China.
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 4 inclusion and 9 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 28 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
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.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
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?
Contact Liansheng Wang (+86 13390787111, jsyzcxw@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
The level of total cholesterol(TC) (time frame: 6 month). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 28 Mar 2022.
