Usability Study of the Commercial Auto-injector Device and the New Auto-injector Device (SYDNEY) in Patients With High or Very High CV Risk With Hypercholesterolemia Not Adequately Controlled With Their Lipid-Modifying Therapy
Usability Study of the Commercial Auto-injector Device and the New Auto-injector Device (SYDNEY) in Patients With High or Very High CV Risk With Hypercholesterolemia Not Adequately Controlled With Their Lipid-Modifying Therapy

NCT03415178

CompletedPhase 3

Sponsor: Sanofi

Conditions: Hypercholesterolaemia

Interventions: Alirocumab SAR236553, Current auto-injector device (AI), New auto-injector device (SYDNEY), Atorvastatin, Rosuvastatin

Countries: United States

Primary Objective: To collect real-use (usability) data assessing the robustness and user interaction of the new alirocumab auto-injector device (which is referred to as SYDNEY), in unsupervised settings. Secondary Objective: Device-related: * To collect real-use (usability) data assessing the robustness and user interaction of SYDNEY and the current alirocumab auto-injector device (which is referred to as AI) in supervised settings. Pharmacokinetics: * To compare alirocumab pharmacokinetics (PK) administered using SYDNEY and AI. * To evaluate alirocumab PK administered using SYDNEY. Anti-drug antibodies: * To evaluate the development of anti-drug (alirocumab) antibodies (ADA). Efficacy/pharmacodynamics: * To compare the percent and absolute change in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) using SYDNEY and AI. * To evaluate the percent and absolute change in LDL-C using SYDNEY. Safety: * To evaluate the safety and tolerability of alirocumab using both SYDNEY and AI.

Age: 18 Years to

Healthy volunteers: No

Study type: INTERVENTIONAL

Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria :

* Participants were in either category A or B (below), and were not adequately controlled with a stable daily dose of atorvastatin (20 mg or 40 mg), or rosuvastatin (10 mg or 20 mg) for at least 4 weeks prior to the screening visit (Week -2), with or without other LMT:

  * A. Participants with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (heFH) (diagnosis based on either genotyping or clinical criteria) OR
  * B. Non-FH Participants at high or very high cardiovascular (CV) risk. High and very high cardiovascular risk participants included participants with coronary heart disease (CHD), non-CHD cardiovascular disease (CVD), and other risk factors.
* Participant willing and able to self-inject for the duration of the study.

Exclusion criteria:

* LDL-C \<70 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) (\<1.81 millimoles per litre \[mmol/L\]) at the screening visit.
* Currently taking a daily dose of statin that was not atorvastatin 20 mg or 40 mg, or rosuvastatin 10 mg or 20 mg.
* Not on a stable dose of LMT (including statin) for at least 4 weeks, prior to the screening visit and from screening to randomization.
* Having previously used any device for the proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitor administration, or having participated in any clinical trial for a PCSK9 inhibitor.
* Fasting serum Triglyceride (TG) \>400 mg/dL (\>4.52 mmol/L) at the screening visit.
