The Medicines Company announced positive topline results for the ORION-9 Phase III clinical study in patients with Heterozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia (HeFH). ORION-9 met all primary and secondary endpoints, and inclisiran demonstrated durable and potent efficacy and was well-tolerated with excellent safety that was generally well-balanced between the treatment groups. Furthermore, there were no treatment-related liver or renal laboratory abnormalities. Detailed efficacy, tolerability and safety data from ORION-9 will be presented at the American Heart Association (AHA) Scientific Sessions in Philadelphia on Monday, November 18, 9:24am EST, during Late Breaking Science VI: New Frontiers in Lipid Therapy.
