  • History of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) 
  • Has 1 of the fasting serum LDL-C criteria: 
  • Fasting serum LDL-C ≥80 mg/dL (2.1 mmol/L) and <100 mg/dL (2.6 mmol/L) with at least 1 of the following risk enhancers: 
  • Recent myocardial infarction (MI) (>3 and <12 months prior to Randomisation); 
  • Type 2 diabetes mellitus; 
  • Fasting TG >150 mg/dL (>1.7 mmol/L); and/or 
  • Fasting HDL-C <40 mg/dL (<1.0 mmol/L) 

      OR 

  • Fasting serum LDL-C ≥100 mg/dL (2.6 mmol/L) 
  • Taking a maximally tolerated lipid-modifying therapy, including statin therapy (e.g., atorvastatin or rosuvastatin), ezetimibe, bempedoic acid, PCSK9-targeted therapies, and fibrates. Patients taking low dose or no statin therapy due to statin intolerance and/or patients taking a combination of therapies may be eligible.
