Brief summary
There is limited efficacy and safety data of bempedoic acid or its fixed dose combination (FDC) with ezetimibe in Asian and Latin American patients. This non-interventional study (NIS) will be conducted to characterize the risks and benefits of bempedoic acid or FDC with ezetimibe in a real-world clinical setting in adult patients with primary hypercholesterolaemia (heterozygous familial and non-familial) or mixed dyslipidaemia.
Detailed description
The primary objective of this study is to describe patient characteristics and evaluate adverse drug reactions (ADRs) that occurred since initiation of bempedoic acid/FDC with ezetimibe and adverse events (AEs) collected after signed informed consent and initiation of bempedoic acid/FDC with ezetimibe in a regular clinical care setting in patients with primary hypercholesterolaemia (heterozygous familial and non-familial) or mixed dyslipidaemia during 1-year follow-up. The secondary objectives are defined as the assessment of the cardiovascular risk, rate, level of LDL-C goal attainment, changes over time in LDL-C levels, inflammatory markers, and uric acid levels from prior to treatment with bempedoic acid/FDC, and adverse events (AEs)/adverse drug reactions (ADRs).

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Patients can be enrolled, when they fulfil the following inclusion criteria: * Written informed consent to participate. * At least 18 years of age. * Patients suffering from documented primary hypercholesterolemia or mixed dyslipidaemia treated or intended to be treated with bempedoic acid/ FDC with ezetimibe at the discretion of the physician are appropriate for participation in the observation. * For patients who are treated with bempedoic acid/FDC with ezetimibe prior to signed informed consent, initiation of bempedoic acid/FDC with ezetimibe must be within a maximum of three months prior to inclusion. * No contraindications exist according to the SmPC of bempedoic acid/FDC with ezetimibe. * No concurrent participation in an interventional study (simultaneous participation in other non-interventional study is possible) * Life expectancy \> 1 year. No explicit
Exclusion criteria
exist to avoid selection bias and to allow for documentation of routine clinical practice.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Incidence of adverse events | From pre-bempedoic acid/pre-FDC initiation to 1 year after initiation of therapy | Adverse events (AEs) will be collected after signed informed consent and initiation of bempedoic acid/FDC with ezetimibe. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Cardiovascular (CV) risk of patients treated with bempedoic acid/FDC with ezetimibe using 2019 ESC/EAS guidelines risk classification | From pre-bempedoic acid/pre-FDC initiation to 1 year after initiation of therapy | Cardiovascular (CV) risk of patients treated with bempedoic acid/FDC with ezetimibe will be assessed using 2019 ESC/EAS guidelines risk classification. |
| Proportion of patients with level of LDL-C goal attainment | From pre-bempedoic acid/pre-FDC initiation to 1 year after initiation of therapy | The proportion of patients with level of LDL-C goal attainment at any subsequent data collection time point will be assessed. |
| Change from baseline in LDL-C levels | From pre-bempedoic acid/pre-FDC initiation to 1 year after initiation of therapy | Changes over time in LDL-C levels from prior to treatment with bempedoic acid/FDC to any subsequent data collection points will be assessed. |
| Change from baseline in plasma levels of other potentially ASCVD-modifying cholesterol fragments | From pre-bempedoic acid/pre-FDC initiation to 1 year after initiation of therapy | Changes over time in plasma levels of other potentially atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD)-modifying cholesterol fragments, namely, TC, apoB, HDL-C, non-HDL-C, TGs and Lp(a) from prior to treatment with bempedoic acid/FDC with ezetimibe to any subsequent data collection point will be assessed. |
| Change from baseline in the levels of inflammatory marker hsCRP | From pre-bempedoic acid/pre-FDC initiation to 1 year after initiation of therapy | Changes over time in the levels of inflammatory marker Hs C-reactive Protein (hsCRP) from prior to treatment with bempedoic acid/FDC with ezetimibe to any subsequent data collection point will be assessed. |
| Change from baseline in uric acid levels | From pre-bempedoic acid/pre-FDC initiation to 1 year after initiation of therapy | Changes over time in uric acid levels from prior to treatment with bempedoic acid/FDC with ezetimibe to any subsequent data collection point will be assessed. |
| Incidence of relevant cardiovascular events | From pre-bempedoic acid/pre-FDC initiation to 1 year after initiation of therapy | The incidence of relevant CV events, including myocardial infarction (MI), unstable angina requiring hospitalization, CABG, PCI, stroke (ischemic and haemorrhagic), TIA , acute peripheral arterial occlusion, other arterial revascularization procedures, all-cause death, and CV-death will be assessed. |
| Adverse effects related to lipid-modifying treatments (LMTs) other than bempedoic acid/FDC with ezetimibe | From pre-bempedoic acid/pre-FDC initiation to 1 year after initiation of therapy | Adverse effects related to lipid-modifying treatment (LMT) other than bempedoic acid/FDC with ezetimibe, including insufficient lipid lowering efficacy, laboratory abnormalities, muscle-associated symptoms, new onset and/or worsening of existing diabetes mellitus, reduced kidney function, drug-drug interaction assessed by the physician, and non-compliance assessed by the physician will be assessed. |
| Use of lipid modifying therapies prior or concomitantly to receiving bempedoic acid/FDC with ezetimibe | From pre-bempedoic acid/pre-FDC initiation to 1 year after initiation of therapy | The use of LMTs prior or concomitantly to receiving bempedoic acid/FDC with ezetimibe (including combination treatments) will be assessed. |
| Treatment duration of bempedoic acid/FDC with ezetimibe | From pre-bempedoic acid/pre-FDC initiation to 1 year after initiation of therapy | Bempedoic acid/FDC with ezetimibe treatment parameters such as treatment duration by therapy, dosage, prescription intervals, permanent discontinuations, switches and reasons for these will be assessed. |
