Phase III Study To Evaluate Alirocumab in Patients With Hypercholesterolemia Not Treated With a Statin (ODYSSEY CHOICE II)
Hypercholesterolemia
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Hypercholesterolemia
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion criteria:
Participants with primary hypercholesterolemia (heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia [heFH] or non-FH) not adequately controlled with their non-statin LMT (either ezetimibe or fenofibrate) or diet alone.
Exclusion criteria:
- LDL-C <70 mg/dL (1.81 mmol/L) at screening for statin intolerant participants at very high cardiovascular (CV) risk;
- LDL-C <100 mg/dL (<2.59 mmol/L) at screening for statin intolerant participants at high or moderate CV risk or, participants not fulfilling the statin intolerant definition at moderate CV risk;
- LDL-C ≥160 mg/dL (≥4.1 mmol/L) at screening for participants receiving diet only or, participants not fulfilling the statin intolerant definition at moderate CV risk and receiving a non-statin LMT.
The above information is not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a participant's potential participation in a clinical trial.

Experimental
Placebo Q2W
Alirocumab 75 mg Q2W/Up to 150 mg Q2W (Calibrator)
Alirocumab 150 mg Q4W/Up to 150 mg Q2W
Period 1: Placebo (for Alirocumab) subcutaneous (SC) injection every 2 weeks (Q2W) added to stable non-statin lipid modifying therapy (LMT) or diet alone for 24 weeks. Period 2: Alirocumab 150 mg SC injection every 4 weeks (Q4W) from Week 24 until second quarter 2017 or until the drug is commercially available in the country, whatever occurred first. Alirocumab dose could be either up-titrated to 150 mg Q2W from Week 36 or maintained according to the investigator judgement and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) values. Subsequent down titration to 150 mg Q4W was allowed.
Period 1: Alirocumab 75 mg SC injection Q2W added to stable non-statin LMT or diet alone for 24 weeks. Alirocumab dose up-titrated to 150 mg Q2W from Week 12 when targeted LDL-C levels at Week 8 were not achieved i.e. LDL-C ≥70 mg/dL (1.81 mmol/L) or ≥100 mg/dL (2.59 mmol/L) depending on cardiovascular risk or <30% LDL-C reduction from baseline. Period 2: Alirocumab 150 mg SC injection Q4W from Week 24 until second quarter 2017 or until the drug is commercially available in the country, whatever occurred first. Alirocumab dose could be either up-titrated to 150 mg Q2W from Week 36 or maintained according to the investigator judgement and LDL-C values. Subsequent down titration to 150 mg Q4W was allowed.
Period 1: Alirocumab 150 mg SC injection Q4W alternating with placebo (for alirocumab) Q4W added to stable non-statin LMT or diet alone for 24 weeks. Alirocumab dose up-titrated to 150 mg Q2W from Week 12 when targeted LDL-C levels at Week 8 were not achieved i.e. LDL-C ≥70 mg/dL (1.81 mmol/L) or ≥100 mg/dL (2.59 mmol/L) depending on cardiovascular risk or <30% LDL-C reduction from baseline. Period 2: Alirocumab 150 mg SC injection Q4W from Week 24 until second quarter 2017 or until the drug is commercially available in the country, whatever occurred first. Alirocumab dose could be either up-titrated to 150 mg Q2W from Week 36 or maintained according to the investigator judgement and LDL-C values. Subsequent down titration to 150 mg Q4W was allowed.
