Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?

This trial is testing a new medication called Obicetrapib to help people with heart disease who still have high cholesterol despite taking strong treatments. The goal is to see if this medication can lower their risk of heart attacks, strokes, and other serious heart problems by reducing bad cholesterol levels.

Will I have to stop taking my current medications?

The trial does not specify if you need to stop taking your current medications, but you must be on maximally tolerated lipid-lowering therapy. You cannot take gemfibrozil within 30 days before screening.
