Results of Bococizumab, A Monoclonal Antibody Against Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9, from a Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Dose-Ranging Study in Statin-Treated Subjects With Hypercholesterolemia
Bococizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody binding proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9, which may be a potential therapeutic option for reducing low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels in patients with hypercholesterolemia. In this 24-week, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-ranging study (NCT01592240), subjects with LDL-C levels ≥80 mg/dl on stable statin therapy were randomized to Q14 days subcutaneous placebo or bococizumab 50, 100, or 150 mg or Q28 days subcutaneous placebo or bococizumab 200 or 300 mg.
