Clinical Trial Summary

The main objective will be to evaluate the changes in the cognitive function in naive patients treated with PCSK9 inhibitors (Alirocumab and Evolocumab) by using the Montreal Cognitive Assesment questionnaire (MOCA). The secondary objectives will be: 1) To evaluate the levels of LDL-cholesterol changes from the beginning to the end of the study 2) To evaluate changes in Quality of Life among the EuroQol EQ-5D-3L questionnaire (it will also be associated to the cognitive function) 3) Assesment of direct costs in medications and outpatients consultations related with the health procedures.

Outcome
Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Other Total Cholesterol Total cholesterol evolution during the study in mg/dL 24 to 36 months
Other Lp(a) Lp(a) evolution during the study in mg/dL 24 to 36 months
Other Cost-effectiveness €/QUALY 24 to 36 months
Primary Changes in cognitive function Assesment by Montreal Cognitive Assessment questionnaire (MOCA). Minimum value is 0 and maximum value is 30. A higher or equal value to 26 points will be considered normal. 24 to 36 months
Secondary LDL-cholesterol values LDL-cholesterol changes will be assessed during the study by routine sample tests (mg/dL) 24 to 36 months
Secondary Changes in Quality of life By using the questionnaire called EuroQol EQ-5D-3L assessment. It has 2 parts, the first one has 5 questions with 3 possible answers (5 dimensions and 3 levels), so each health status has a rate called EVA from 1,0000 (the highest value) to - 0,5095 (the worst health status).
The second part is a visual self-assessment between 0 (the worst health status) and 100 (the best health status). https://euroqol.org/		 24 to 36 months
Secondary Direct costs Direct costs related with treatments and consultations (€) 24 to 36 months
