New drug combo aims to shrink dangerous heart plaque

NCT ID NCT06372925

Summary

This study is testing if adding a cholesterol-lowering injection called Inclisiran to standard statin pills can better reduce the fatty buildup (plaque) in heart arteries of people who recently had a heart attack. About 318 participants in China will receive either the drug combination or just the statin pill for one year. Doctors will use special imaging inside the arteries to measure if the plaque shrinks or becomes more stable.
