Brief summary

The main purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of selnoflast compared with placebo in participants with atherosclerosis, at high-risk for major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE), who are currently on standard-of-care (SOC) therapy.

Interventions

DRUGSelnoflast

Selnoflast will be administered as per the schedule specified in the respective arm.

Inclusion criteria

* Confirmed evidence of atherosclerosis * Left or right carotid TBR ≥ 1.8 or aorta TBR ≥ 2.0 on centrally-assessed 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose-Positron Emission Tomography (18F-FDG-PET) scan * Stable treatment of atherosclerosis through the use of SOC medications or revascularization * QT interval corrected through use of Fridericia's formula (QTcF) of ≤ 450 milliseconds (ms) in men and ≤ 470 ms in women by a single 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) recording

Exclusion criteria

* Individuals with Class III and IV heart failure * Uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia * Uncontrolled hypertension * Suspected or known immunocompromised state * Planned procedure or surgery during the study and any major surgery within 90 days prior to screening Visit 1 * History of malignancy within 5 years prior to screening, except for appropriately treated carcinoma in situ of the cervix, non-melanoma skin carcinoma, or Stage I uterine cancer * Positive test results for hepatitis B (HBV) infection at screening * Positive hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody test at screening * Positive human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) test at screening * Estimated glomerular filtration rate \<50 mL/min/1.73 m² as calculated through use of the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation, at the time of screening. * Treatment with any live vaccine within 28 days prior to the first dose of study drug until the end of the study * Treatment with other non-live vaccines within 14 days prior to the first dose of study drug until the end of the study
