Summary

This study tests whether giving a PCSK9 inhibitor (a powerful cholesterol-lowering drug) very early in the hospital, along with standard care, can reduce the risk of major heart problems like death, another heart attack, or stroke over the next year. About 1,500 adults who recently had a heart attack and have blockages in multiple heart arteries will take part. The goal is to see if this early treatment helps stabilize dangerous plaques and improves outcomes.
