Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1.Age between 18 and 80 years (inclusive). 2.Patients diagnosed with ASCVD, with the diagnostic criteria as follows: a) A confirmed diagnosis of atherosclerosis-related diseases (such as myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, coronary revascularization, etc.); b) Imaging examinations (e.g., coronary CTA, carotid ultrasound, etc.) demonstrating a diameter stenosis of more than 50% in major blood vessels. 3.Fasting LDL-C remains >= 1.8 mmol/L after receiving at least one month of treatment with atorvastatin 20 mg/day. 4.Voluntary participation in this study and signed informed consent.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1.Patients with a history of allergy or intolerance to any components such as atorvastatin, hybutimibe, or PCSK9 inhibitors. 2.Patients assessed as ultra-high risk for ASCVD. 3.Patients currently using or having used PCSK9 inhibitors within the past 3 months. 4.History of dilated cardiomyopathy, peripartum cardiomyopathy, chemotherapy-induced cardiomyopathy, hereditary hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, infiltrative cardiomyopathy, or viral myocarditis. 5.History of moderate or greater valvular heart disease. 6.Patients with severe liver disease (ALT exceeding 3 times the upper limit of normal) or severe kidney disease (eGFR < 30 mL/min/1.73m^2). 7.Rheumatic systemic diseases (currently using glucocorticoids or anti-rheumatic drugs). 8.Patients with malignant tumors or those with a life expectancy of less than one year. 9.History of drug or alcohol abuse within the past 12 months. 10.Vulnerable populations, including individuals with mental disorders, cognitive impairment, critically ill patients, pregnant or lactating women, or illiterate individuals. 11.Other conditions deemed by the investigator that make the patient unsuitable for participation in this study.
