Recruitment Details The study was conducted at 61 centers in China, India and Thailand. Overall 1163 participants were screened between 27 July 2016 and 18 December 2017, of whom 548 were screen failures. Screen failures were mainly due to exclusion criteria met. A total of 615 participants were randomized in 2:1 ratio to alirocumab: ezetimibe.
Pre-assignment Details Randomization was stratified according to prior history of myocardial infarction (MI) or ischemic stroke [Yes/No], and high-intensity statin treatment (Yes: atorvastatin 40 to 80 mg daily or rosuvastatin 20 to 40 mg daily, no: atorvastatin below 40 mg daily, rosuvastatin below 20 mg daily or simvastatin whatever the dose daily) and country.
Arm/Group Title Ezetimibe 10 mg Alirocumab 75 mg Q2W/up to 150 mg Q2W
Hide Arm/Group Description Oral ezetimibe 10 mg capsule once daily with or without food for 24 Weeks and subcutaneous placebo injection for alirocumab every 2 weeks (Q2W) for 22 weeks added to lipid modifying therapy (LMT). Subcutaneous injection of alirocumab 75 mg Q2W and oral placebo capsule for ezetimibe once daily with or without food added to stable LMT for 24 weeks. Alirocumab dose up-titrated to 150 mg Q2W from Week 12 when low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) level was >=70 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) (1.81 millimoles per liter [mmol/L]) at Week 8.
