Brief summary
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of early treatment with evolocumab plus routine lipid management vs routine lipid management alone when administered in the acute setting to reduce myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, arterial revascularization, and all-cause death in subjects hospitalized for an acute myocardial infarction (non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction \[NSTEMI\] and ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction \[STEMI\]).
Interventions
Evolocumab will be provided as a single-dose, prefilled autoinjector pen (AI/pen) for fixed dose subcutaneous (SC) injection.
Routine lipid management therapies will be administered at the discretion of the investigator per SoC.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Age greater than or equal to 18 years * Hospitalized for primary reason of NSTEMI or STEMI due to presumed atherosclerotic disease
Exclusion criteria
* Participants requiring invasive hemodynamic and/or vasopressor/inotropic support at the time of screening * Participants with elevated biomarkers of myocardial injury due to secondary/nonatherosclerotic etiology (eg, sepsis, atrial fibrillation, vasospasm, decompensated heart failure, uncontrolled hypertension, stress induced cardiomyopathy)
