Phase 3 Study of Muvalaplin to Reduce Major Heart and Blood Vessel Problems in Adults With High Lipoproteina and Previous or Risk of Cardiovascular Events

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating the effect of muvalaplin in lowering cardiovascular risks among adults with elevated lipoproteina who either have atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease or are at risk of a first heart attack or stroke. This phase 3, randomized, double-blind study aims to investigate whether muvalaplin can reduce major adverse cardiovascular events compared to placebo in this high-risk population. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either muvalaplin or a placebo, both given orally. The study is designed with parallel groups and will last about 5.25 years, during which the occurrence of cardiovascular events and changes in lipoproteina levels will be closely monitored. Throughout the study, participants will undergo regular assessments including measurement of lipoproteina levels, monitoring of cardiovascular events such as heart attacks or strokes, and evaluation of healthcare resource use. The primary outcome is the time to first major adverse cardiac event, tracked from baseline until the study ends. Safety and pharmacokinetics of muvalaplin will also be evaluated during the trial period.
