Description

Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of early treatment with evolocumab plus routine lipid management vs routine lipid management alone when administered in the acute setting to reduce myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, arterial revascularization, and all-cause death in subjects hospitalized for an acute myocardial infarction (non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction [NSTEMI] and ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction [STEMI]).

Official Title

EVOLVE-MI: A Pragmatic Randomized Multicenter Trial of EVOLocumab Administered Very Early to Reduce the Risk of Cardiovascular Events in Patients Hospitalized With Acute Myocardial Infarction

Keywords

Eligibility

You can join if…

Open to people ages 18-99

  • Age greater than or equal to 18 years
  • Hospitalized for primary reason of NSTEMI or STEMI due to presumed atherosclerotic disease

You CAN'T join if...

  • Participants requiring invasive hemodynamic and/or vasopressor/inotropic support at the time of screening
  • Participants with elevated biomarkers of myocardial injury due to secondary/nonatherosclerotic etiology (eg, sepsis, atrial fibrillation, vasospasm, decompensated heart failure, uncontrolled hypertension, stress induced cardiomyopathy)
