Clinical Trial Summary

The overall objective of the Cholesterol Lowering via Bempedoic Acid/Ezetimibe, an ACL-Inhibiting Regimen in Acute Coronary Syndrome ACS (CLEAR ACS) study is to determine the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of bempedoic acid/ezetimibe (BA/E) in a contemporary and real-world population, enriched for older adults, women, and underrepresented racial/ethnic groups, of adults with a recent acute coronary syndrome (ACS) event independent of use of statin therapy before the ACS event.


Clinical Trial Description

The CLEAR ACS study is a prospective, virtual, electronic health record (EHR)-based, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, pragmatic clinical trial (PCT) embedded within Kaiser Permanente Northern California's fully integrated and learning health care delivery system. The EHR will be screened in real-time for potentially eligible participants across all Kaiser Permanente Northern California hospitals using validated diagnostic and procedural codes, disease registries, laboratory values, pharmacy dispensing information, and sociodemographic data sources. Eligible patients that provide informed consent will be randomized in a 1:1 allocation ratio to an initial 12 weeks of blinded bempedoic acid/ezetimibe (BA/E) vs. matching placebo followed by a 12-week open-label extension phase where all patients will receive open-label, unblinded bempedoic acid/ezetimibe. ;
