Summary

This Phase 3 trial is testing an injectable drug called HRS9531 in about 9,200 people with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (hardened arteries). The goal is to see if it can lower the chance of major heart problems like heart attack, stroke, or death. Participants receive either the drug or a placebo shot, and the study will last until enough heart events occur to compare the groups.
