Italian study to track Real-World use of Next-Gen cholesterol drugs
NCT ID NCT07543731
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 16, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study will look at how consistently nearly 6,000 adults in Italy take three newer cholesterol-lowering drugs (inclisiran, evolocumab, and alirocumab) over the long term. Researchers will analyze prescription records to measure adherence and persistence in everyday medical practice. The goal is to understand real-world usage patterns, not to test the drugs' effectiveness or safety.
