AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Male or female participants, 2 to \<12 years of age at screening
* HoFH diagnosed by genetic confirmation
\- Note: Participants with known null (negative) mutations in both LDLR alleles are not eligible (see also exclusion criteria)
* Fasting LDL-C \>130 mg/dL (3.4 mmol/L) at screening
* On an optimal dose of statin (investigator's discretion), unless statin intolerant, with or without other lipid-lowering therapy (e.g. ezetimibe)
* Participants on lipid-lowering therapies (such as e.g. statins, ezetimibe) must be on a stable dose for ≥30 days before screening with no planned medication or dose changes during study participation
* Participants on a documented regimen of LDL-apheresis for ≥ 3 months before screening will be allowed to continue the apheresis during the study, if needed. The apheresis schedule/settings/duration must be stable prior to screening, are not allowed to change during the double-blind period of the trial and must permit that an apheresis coincides with each study visit.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Documented evidence of a null (negative) mutation in both LDLR alleles
* Previous treatment (within 90 days of screening) with monoclonal antibodies directed towards PCSK9
* History of poor response to therapy with any monoclonal antibody directed towards PCSK9 (e.g. \<15% reduction in LDL-C)
* Treatment with mipomersen or lomitapide (within 5 months of screening)
* Secondary hypercholesterolemia, e.g. hypothyroidism or nephrotic syndrom…
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
