New shot may slash cholesterol right after a heart attack
NCT ID NCT07102628
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 13, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests whether starting inclisiran early during a hospital stay for a heart attack can lower bad cholesterol more than a placebo, when both are added to standard care. About 300 adults hospitalized for a heart attack will receive either inclisiran or a placebo shot at the start and again 90 days later. The main goal is to see if inclisiran leads to greater cholesterol reduction by day 150.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Inclisiran
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could provide a new way to quickly lower bad cholesterol after a heart attack, potentially reducing the risk of future heart problems.
- What could go wrong
- This is still an early Phase 3 trial with 300 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Inclisiran may not lower cholesterol enough or could have side effects not yet seen.
