New Twice-a-Year injection shows promise for lowering bad cholesterol

NCT ID NCT05888103

Summary

This study tested a new drug called inclisiran to see if it could safely lower 'bad' cholesterol (LDL-C) in Chinese adults. The 207 participants had elevated cholesterol but a low-to-moderate risk for heart disease and were not taking other cholesterol medications. For the first 6 months, some received the drug and others received a placebo, and then all participants received the drug for another 6 months to measure its long-term effects.
