Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary Objective: The secondary objectives include the assessment of the effect of inclisiran on; (1) A composite of myocardial infarction (heart attack) or death from coronary disease (2) Cardiovascular death. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The analysis will be undertaken at the end of the study after an average follow-up of 5 years and will include primary outcomes which have occurred during the scheduled follow-up period. ;Main Objective: The primary objective of ORION-4 is to determine the effect of inclisiran sodium, given 3 times in the first year and then 6 monthly for a total of around 5 years, on 'major adverse cardiovascular events' (defined as any occurrence of non-fatal myocardial infarction [heart attack], death from coronary disease, ischaemic stroke [stroke due to insufficient blood supply rather than bleeding] or urgent coronary revascularization procedure [angioplasty or bypass surgery]) during the scheduled treatment period. ;Primary end point(s): The primary assessment will involve an intention-to-treat comparison among all randomized participants of the effects of allocation to inclisiran versus placebo on time to first occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE, defined as coronary heart disease death, myocardial infarction, fatal or non-fatal ischaemic stroke, or urgent coronary revascularization procedure) during the scheduled treatment period. | — |

| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): Secondary assessments will involve intention-to-treat comparisons among all randomized participants of the effects of allocation to inclisiran versus placebo during the scheduled treatment period on time to first occurrence of: (i) The composite outcome of coronary heart disease death or myocardial infarction; and (ii) Cardiovascular death. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The analysis will be undertaken at the end of the study after an average follow-up of 5 years and will include secondary outcomes which have occurred during the scheduled follow-up period. | — |
