triPle Oral thERapy With Bempedoic Acid vs uSual Care in Early Lipid Management of Patients With acUte coronAry synDromE

Sponsor: Heart Care Foundation

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

Early and intensive LDL-cholesterol (LDL-c) reduction is associated with improved short-term and long-term outcomes. Bempedoic acid is an oral ATP citrate lyase inhibitor that lowers LDL-c upstream of HMG-CoA reductase. When added to maximally tolerated statins, it has demonstrated significant LDL-c reduction and cardiovascular benefit, particularly in statin-intolerant or high-risk patients. However, evidence on early initiation of bempedoic acid during the index ACS hospitalization is currently lacking. The investigators therefore would like to see whether early (pre-discharge) initiation of an oral triple lipid-lowering therapy including bempedoic acid, high-intensity statin (HIS), and ezetimibe is superior to usual care in reducing LDL-c levels at 8 weeks after randomization in patients hospitalized for ACS.
