You may qualify if…
- Participants may be included if they meet all of the following inclusion criteria prior to randomization:
- Male or female participants ≥18 years of age.
- History of HeFH with a diagnosis of HeFH by genetic testing; and/or a documented history of untreated LDL-C of >190 mg/dL, and a family history of familial hypercholesterolemia, elevated cholesterol or early heart disease that may indicate familial hypercholesterolemia.
- Serum LDL-C ≥2.6 millimoles (mmol)/liter (L) (≥100 mg/dL) at screening.
- Fasting triglyceride <4.52 mmol/L (<400 mg/dL) at screening.
- Participants on statins should be receiving a maximally tolerated dose.
- Participants not receiving statins must have documented evidence of intolerance to all doses of at least 2 different statins.
- Participants on lipid-lowering therapies (such as a statin and/or ezetimibe) should be on a stable dose for ≥30 days before screening with no planned medication or dose change during study participation.
You may not qualify if…
- Participants will be excluded from the study if any of the following exclusion criteria apply immediately prior to randomization:
- New York Heart Association (NYHA) class IV heart failure.
- Uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia
- Uncontrolled severe hypertension
- Active liver disease
- Females who are pregnant or nursing, or who are of childbearing potential and unwilling to use at least 2 methods of highly effective contraception (failure rate less than 1% per year) (combined oral contraceptives, barrier methods, approved contraceptive implant, long-term injectable contraception, or intrauterine device) for the entire duration of the study. Exemptions from this criterion:
- Women >2 years postmenopausal (defined as 1 year or longer since last menstrual period) AND more than 55 years of age.
