Study which will investigate, if the treatment with Inclisiran, Bempedoic acid and monoclonal antibodies Alirocumab or Evolocumab has other than lipid-lowering effects such as change in platelet activity and inflammation markers.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The main objective of this study is to evaluate the potential pleiotropic effects on inflammatory markers and platelet activation of treatment with Inclisiran, Bempedoic acid and Evelocumab.;Secondary Objective: The secondary endpoints are: -The correlation between the lipid panel and inflammation markers. -The correlation between the lipid panel and platelet activity. -The correlation between patients amount of body fat and inflammation markers. -The correlation between patients amount of body fat and platelet activity. -Change of the platelet activity, inflammation markers and lipid profile in time after beginning of treatment. ;Primary end point(s): 4.1.1Co-primary endpoints 1.Changes in platelet function measured with Multiplate analyser and flow cytometry-based on monocyte-platelet aggregates caused after initiation of treatment. 2.Change in the inflammatory state based on the measurement of anti- and pro-inflammatory markers caused after initiation of treatment. 3.Velocity of changes in the lipid profile after initiation of treatment. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: This endpoint will be evaluated at the end of the study.
