Description
Summary
This is a pivotal phase III study designed to evaluate safety, tolerability, and efficacy of inclisiran in children (aged 2 to <12 years) with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH) and elevated low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLC).
Official Title
Two Part (Double-blind Inclisiran Versus Placebo [Year 1] Followed by Open-label Inclisiran [Year 2]) Randomized Multicenter Study to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of Inclisiran in Children (2 to Less Than 12 Years) With Homozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia and Elevated LDL-cholesterol
Details
This is a two-part (1 year double-blind inclisiran versus placebo / 1 year open-label inclisiran) multicenter study designed to evaluate safety, tolerability, and efficacy of inclisiran in children (aged 2 to <12 years) with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH) and elevated low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) on stable standard of care background lipid-lowering therapy.

Eligibility
You can join if…
Open to people ages 2-11
- Male or female participants, 2 to <12 years of age at screening
- HoFH diagnosed by genetic confirmation
- Note: Participants with known null (negative) mutations in both LDLR alleles are not eligible (see also
You CAN'T join if...
)
- Fasting LDL-C >130 mg/dL (3.4 mmol/L) at screening
- On an optimal dose of statin (investigator's discretion), unless statin intolerant, with or without other lipid-lowering therapy (e.g. ezetimibe)
- Participants on lipid-lowering therapies (such as e.g. statins, ezetimibe) must be on a stable dose for ≥30 days before screening with no planned medication or dose changes during study participation
- Participants on a documented regimen of LDL-apheresis for ≥ 3 months before screening will be allowed to continue the apheresis during the study, if needed. The apheresis schedule/settings/duration must be stable prior to screening, are not allowed to change during the double-blind period of the trial and must permit that an apheresis coincides with each study visit.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Documented evidence of a null (negative) mutation in both LDLR alleles
- Previous treatment (within 90 days of screening) with monoclonal antibodies directed towards PCSK9
- History of poor response to therapy with any monoclonal antibody directed towards PCSK9 (e.g. <15% reduction in LDL-C)
- Treatment with mipomersen or lomitapide (within 5 months of screening)
- Secondary hypercholesterolemia, e.g. hypothyroidism or nephrotic syndrome
- Heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH)
- Body weight (at the screening and/or randomization (Day 1) visit) <16 kg for participants 6 to <12 years (at screening) or <11 kg for participants 2 to <6 years (at screening)
- Active liver disease defined as any known current infectious, neoplastic, or metabolic pathology of the liver or unexplained alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) elevation >3x ULN, or total bilirubin elevation >2x ULN (except patients with Gilbert's syndrome)
- Pregnant or nursing females
- Recent and/or planned use of other investigational medicinal products or devices
