Evaluation of Efficacy and Safety of QLC7401 Monotherapy in Participants With Non-familial Primary Hypercholesterolemia or Mixed Dyslipidemia: A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Phase III Clinical Study

This Phase III clinical trial aims to assess the efficacy and safety of QLC7401 monotherapy in adults with non-familial primary hypercholesterolemia or mixed dyslipidemia who are not receiving lipid-lowering therapy. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive subcutaneous injections of either QLC7401 or a placebo according to the study schedule.
