About this study
Official title: A Phase III, Randomised, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group Study to Assess the Effect of AZD0780 on Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol in Patients With Heterozygous Familial Hypercholesterolaemia
This is a study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AZD0780 in adults with HeFH and elevated LDL-C, either with clinical ASCVD and LDL-C levels of 55 mg/dL or higher or without clinical ASCVD and LDL-C levels of 70 mg/dL or higher. AZD0780 is a small molecule that reduces the amount of LDL-C in the blood. Placebo will be used for comparison, and neither the participants nor the Investigators will know who is receiving the AZD0780 medication and who is receiving the placebo until the end of study.
The total length of the study for an individual participant will be up to approximately 56 weeks, including a screening period of up to 14 days, treatment with AZD0780 or placebo for 52 weeks, and a safety follow-up period of 10 days.
Read the detailed description
This is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group Phase III study to evaluate the effect on the reduction of LDL-C and the safety and tolerability of AZD0780 versus placebo, administered as xx mg once daily orally, on top of a high intensity lipid-lowering regimen. The target population is adults ≥ 18 years of age with HeFH either with ASCVD and LDL-C ≥ 55 mg/dL, or without clinical ASCVD and LDL-C ≥ 70 mg/dL. The study will be conducted at approximately 170 centres in approximately 25 countries.
The screening period is up to 14 days (and may be conditionally extended), starts at the date of signed informed consent, and ends on the day before the randomisation visit. Participants will be randomised in a 2:1 ratio to either AZD0780 or placebo for a treatment period of 52 weeks and a 10-day safety follow-up. Those randomised to the AZD0780 group will receive AZD0780 xx mg orally once daily during the treatment period, while those in the placebo group will receive matching placebo. The study will include approximately 405 randomised participants. An independent data monitoring committee will, on a regular basis, review accumulating data from the study, evaluate adverse effects of the IMP, and make recommendations regarding whether to halt or modify the study.

What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Relative change in LDL-C from baseline to 12 weeks (time frame: Baseline - 12 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Jul 2026.
