- NY Heart Association class III-IV heart failure; or patients with last documented left ventricular ejection fraction <30%; planned PCI, CABG or cardiac surgery
- Uncontrolled hypertension defined as evidenced by a reproducible (repeated 5 minutes apart) sitting blood pressure ≥160 mmHg systolic or ≥100 mmHg diastolic;
- Enrolled in another investigational device or drug study, or less than 30 days or 5 half-lives since ending another investigational device or drug study(ies), or receiving PCSK9 or Lp(a) siRNA or locked nucleic acid-reducing agents within 12 months of the Screening Visit;

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
Comparison of LDL-C reductions at Week 12 of monthly (Q4W[≤ 31 days]) dosing of LIB003 300 mg administered subcutaneously (SC) to Q4W dosing of evolocumab (Repatha) 420 mg and alirocumab (Praluent) 300 mg in patients with CVD or at high risk for CVD on a stable diet and high intensity statin and other LDL-C-lowering drug therapy.
Detailed Description
This is a randomized, open-label Phase 3 study of 12 weeks duration comparing Q4W SC doses of LIB003 300 mg, evolocumab (Repatha) 420 mg and alirocumab (Praluent) 300 mg. Approximately 220 males and females aged ≥18 years who fulfill all of the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be enrolled at up to 25 sites in the United States. Patients will be stratified by baseline LDL-C and randomized in a 2:2:1 ratio to LIB003 (88 patients), Repatha (88 patients) or Praluent (44 patients) administered SC Q4W (≤31 days). The study will consist of a Screening Period and a Treatment Period. The total study duration will be up to 21 weeks which includes up to 9-week Screening Period (depending on period required for washout of PCSK9 mAb and/or intensification of statin treatment) and 12 weeks of study drug treatment.
