About this trial

This study is to evaluate the effect of Inclisiran on coronary atherosclerosis using intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) in patients with acute myocardial infarction and elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C).

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Male or female ≥ 18 and ≤ 75 years of age.

Acute myocardial infarction (STEMI ≤ 24h/NSTEMI ≤ 72h of onset of symptoms) with planned PCI.

LDL-C > 1.8 mmol/L if on stable dose of statin (with or without ezetimibe) for ≥ 4 weeks upon signing ICF.

LDL-C > 2.6 mmol/L if not on stable dose of statin (with or without ezetimibe) for ≥ 4 weeks upon signing ICF.

Disqualifiers

Familial hypercholesterolemia or secondary hypercholesterolemia.

Clinically instable AMI (hemodynamic or electrical instability).

Left main disease, defined as ≥ 50% diameter stenosis of the left main coronary artery by coronary angiography.

Three-vessel disease, defined as ≥ 70% diameter stenosis of 3 major epicardial coronary vessels or in major branches of these arteries by coronary angiography.
