-Summary

This multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of zodasiran subcutaneous (SC) injection in subjects 12 years of age and older with genetically or clinically diagnosed Homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH). After completion of the double blind (DB) treatment period subjects will be eligible to continue in the optional open-label extension (OLE) period of the study. All placebo subjects who opt to continue will transition to active drug during the OLE Period.

+Eligibility

Sex: All, ages: 12 Years to any

Inclusion Criteria:

* Age ≥12 years, non pregnant, non lactating, do not plan to become pregnant during the study
* Body weight ≥35 kg at Screening as patients could theoretically be <35 kg as the study continues.

* On standard of care, maximally tolerated lipid-lowering therapy to include a maximally tolerated statin, ezetimibe, and a PCSK9 inhibitor

Exclusion Criteria:

* Use of a hepatocyte-targeted siRNA within 365 days before Day 1 (except inclisiran, which is permitted; administration of inclisiran and study drug must be separated by at least 4 weeks)
* Use of an antisense oligonucleotide molecule within 3 months before Day 1 (except inclisiran, which is permitted; administration of inclisiran and study drug must be separated by at least 4 weeks)
* Use of evinacumab within 3 months before Day 1. Evinacumab use is prohibited during the study.
* Non-response to evinacumab, defined as LDL-C reduction <15% from baseline after 2 doses
* Use of any other investigational agent or device within 30 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) before Day 1
* Use of systemic corticosteroids (unless used as replacement therapy for pituitary/adrenal disease with a stable regimen)
