About this study
Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Factorial Design Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Pharmacodynamics, Safety and Tolerability of HDY015 Administered as a Free Combination of QCZ484 and Inclisiran Compared to QCZ484, Inclisiran, and Placebo in Participants With Hypertension and Concomitant Hypercholesterolemia
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, factorial design Phase 2 study to evaluate the pharmacodynamics, safety and tolerability of a combination of QCZ484 and inclisiran compared to QCZ484, inclisiran, and placebo in participants with hypertension and concomitant hypercholesterolemia.
Read the detailed description
The study will last up to 12 months and has three periods:
- Eligibility will be assessed during the screening period including 2 screening visits. Some eligibility criteria will be confirmed at the Baseline/Randomization visit.
- Eligible participants will be randomized to receive a combination of QCZ484 and inclisiran, QCZ484, inclisiran or placebo once on Day 1 at the Baseline/Randomization visit.
- Afterwards, participants will enter the safety follow-up period. Eligible participants who complete the treatment period have the option to participate in an open-label extension study instead of entering the safety follow-up period.
- Conditions
- Hypercholesterolaemia
- Being tested
- QCZ484, Inclisiran, QCZ484 placebo, Inclisiran placebo
- Keywords
- Hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, siRNA, inclisiran, QCZ484, randomized, double-blind, Phase 2, pharmacodynamics, AGT, PCSK9
