Over the 52-week double-blind period, adherence
to study medication (receipt of ≥80% scheduled
injections) was similar between treatment groups (98%
alirocumab; 99% placebo). Based on week 8 LDL-C levels
≥70 mg/dL, 32 (16.8%) of 191 patients had their
alirocumab dose increased to 150 mg subcutaneously
Q2W at week 12 (among patients with ≥1 injection after
week 12)
