Coronary Heart Disease, Hypercholesterolemia

Brief summary

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of dosing with mipomersen for 26 weeks in treating severely hypercholesterolemic patients who are on a maximally tolerated lipid-lowering regimen and who are not on apheresis.

Detailed description

Hypercholesterolemia is characterized by markedly elevated low density lipoproteins (LDL). Elevated LDL is a major risk factor for coronary heart disease (CHD). Mipomersen is an antisense drug that reduces a protein in the liver cells called apolipoprotein B (Apo-B). Apo-B plays a role in producing low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (the bad cholesterol) and moving it from the liver to one's bloodstream. High LDL-C is an independent risk factor for the development of coronary heart disease (CHD) or other diseases of blood vessels. It has been shown that lowering LDL-C reduces the risk of heart attacks and other major adverse cardiovascular events. The purpose of this study is to determine whether mipomersen safely and effectively lowers LDL-C in severely hypercholesterolemic patients who are on a maximally tolerated lipid-lowering regimen and who are not on apheresis.

Samples were taken following an overnight fast. For patients with triglycerides \<400 mg/dL, LDL-C was obtained using Friedewald's calculation; and for patients with triglycerides \>=400 mg/dL, LDL-C was directly measured by the central laboratory using ultracentrifugation. Baseline was defined as the average of the screening and Study Day 1 (pre-treatment) assessments. An assessment was not included in this calculation if it was associated with a non-fasting blood draw or was drawn more than 4 weeks prior to Study Day 1. The PET was the post-baseline visit, for which LDL-C was assessed, closest to 14 days after the last dose of study drug.

Comparison: Based upon prior clinical study experience with mipomersen, it was estimated that the standard deviation of the percent change in LDL-C was approximately 22%. With 15 patients in the control group and 30 patients in the mipomersen-treated group, this study would have at least 80% power to detect a 20 percentage point difference between the 2 treatment groups. Enrollment was to be conducted such that at least 51 patients were randomized to allow for potential exclusions from an analysis set.p-value: <0.001t-test, 2 sided

An assessment was not included in this calculation if it was associated with a non-fasting blood draw or was drawn more than 4 weeks prior to Study Day 1. The PET was the post-baseline visit, for which LDL-C was assessed, closest to 14 days after the last dose of study drug.

Time frame: Baseline (the average of the screening and Day 1 pre-treatment assessments) and the Primary Efficacy Time point (PET) up to week 28
