Efficacy and Safety Evaluation of Alirocumab in Patients With Heterozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia or High Cardiovascular Risk Patients With Hypercholesterolemia on Lipid Modifying Therapy (ODYSSEY JAPAN)
Hypercholesterolemia
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Hypercholesterolemia
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion criteria:
Participants with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia or non-familial hypercholesterolemia who were not adequately controlled with a stable daily dose of statin with or without other lipid modifying therapy, at stable dose prior to the screening visit (Week -3).
Exclusion criteria:
- LDL-C <100 mg/dL (<2.59 mmol/L) at the screening visit in participants with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia or in participants with non-familial hypercholesterolemia who had a history of documented coronary heart disease as described in Japan Atherosclerosis Society (JAS) Guidelines for Prevention of Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Diseases 2012.
- LDL-C <120 mg/dL (<3.10 mmol/L) at the screening visit in participants with non-familial hypercholesterolemia who had a history of documented diseases or other risk factors as categorized in primary prevention category III as described in JAS Guidelines for Prevention of Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Diseases 2012.
- Not on a stable daily dose of lipid modifying therapy (including statin) within 4 weeks prior to the screening visit or between screening and randomization visits.
- Age <20 years at the screening visit.

Placebo Q2W
Alirocumab 75 mg/Up to 150 mg Q2W
Placebo (for alirocumab) every two weeks (Q2W) added to stable lipid-modifying therapy (LMT).
Alirocumab 75 mg Q2W added to stable LMT for 52 weeks. Alirocumab dose up-titrated to 150 mg from Week 12 when LDL-C levels above pre-specified threshold at Week 8 as defined in Japan Atherosclerosis Society (JAS) Guidelines for Prevention of Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Diseases 2012 i.e. ≥100 mg/dL (2.59 mmol/L) in heFH participants or in non-familial hypercholesterolemia (non-FH) participants who had a history of documented coronary heart disease (CHD) ≥120 mg/dL (3.10 mmol/L) in non-FH participants who had a history of documented diseases or other risk factors as categorized in primary prevention category III
