LIBerate-CVD Trial Summary

This trial is to see if a drug called LIB003 can reduce LDL-C levels over 52 weeks in patients who are at very high risk for cardiovascular disease and who are already taking other oral LDL-C lowering drugs.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with cardiovascular disease at very high risk, who need extra help lowering their LDL cholesterol despite being on a stable diet and oral drugs like statins. They must have been on consistent medication doses for at least 4 weeks and not have severe liver issues, recent heart problems or surgeries, uncontrolled diabetes, or serious kidney dysfunction.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the effectiveness of lerodalcibep (LIB003), given as a monthly shot under the skin, in reducing bad cholesterol levels compared to a placebo in patients already taking cholesterol-lowering medications but needing further reduction after one year.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here, typical reactions to subcutaneous injections may include pain at the injection site, swelling, redness, bruising or itching. Other side effects could be related to immune response or changes in blood lipid levels.
