CAPRA-EVO: a Randomized Serial PCCT Trial of Early Evolocumab After ACS (CAPRA-EVO)

5 juni 2026 uppdaterad av: Yong He, West China Hospital

A Single-center, Randomized Controlled Comparison of Effect of Evolocumab Versus Standard Lipid Lowering Therapy on Plaque Progression in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome by Serial PCCT(CAPRA-EVO Trial)

The CAPRA-EVO trial is a single-center, randomized, open-label study with blinded endpoint assessment comparing early evolocumab plus standard lipid-lowering therapy versus standard-of-care lipid-lowering therapy in patients with acute coronary syndrome after successful percutaneous coronary intervention. The study will use serial photon-counting coronary computed tomography angiography at baseline and 52 weeks to assess changes in non-culprit coronary plaque burden and stenosis severity. Secondary outcomes include changes in high-risk plaque features, lipid and inflammatory biomarkers, cardiovascular events, and safety outcomes. The trial aims to determine whether early intensive LDL-C lowering with evolocumab can reduce coronary plaque progression and support PCCT-CCTA as a noninvasive tool for monitoring atherosclerotic plaque dynamics.

Beskrivning

Inclusion Criteria:

Eligible patients must meet the following criteria:

  • Age between 40 and 75 years.
  • Diagnosis of ACS, including ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) or non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) or unstable angina (UA).
  • Successful PCI treatment, with post-procedural TIMI grade 3 flow and residual stenosis <30% and atherosclerotic plaque presence in non-culprit coronary vessels (not attributed to this target event).
  • Suboptimal LDL-C control: Patients must have received any statin treatment for at least 4 weeks, with an LDL-C level ≥1.8 mmol/L; or Statin-naive patients must have an LDL-C level ≥3.2 mmol/L.
  • Agreement to complete baseline CCTA and laboratory tests within 7 days of enrollment and signed informed consent.
  • Commitment to complete 52 weeks of follow-up.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • History of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).
  • History of valve surgery.
  • History of PCI treatment before the index ACS event
  • Complex bifurcation lesions (Medina 1,1,1).
  • Use of PCSK9 inhibitors (e.g., evolocumab, alirocumab) or potent CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., itraconazole) within the last 12 months.
  • Known intolerance to statins, evolocumab, or other investigational drugs related to the study.
  • Hepatic or renal insufficiency (eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73m² or ALT/AST >3 times the upper limit of normal).
  • Active autoimmune diseases (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus).
  • Uncontrolled heart failure (NYHA class III-IV) or malignant arrhythmias.
  • Known allergy or hypersensitivity to iodinated contrast media
  • Hyperthyroidism or active thyroid disease
  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding (or plans for pregnancy within the next year).
  • Life expectancy of less than 1 year (e.g., due to advanced malignancy).
  • Participation in another interventional clinical trial within the past 3 months.

Vapen och interventioner

Deltagargrupp / Arm
Intervention / Behandling
Experimentell: Experimental: Evolocumab Plus Standard Lipid-Lowering Therapy
Participants randomized to this arm will receive early evolocumab in addition to standard-of-care lipid-lowering therapy after successful percutaneous coronary intervention for acute coronary syndrome. Participants will undergo serial photon-counting coronary computed tomography angiography at baseline and 52 weeks to evaluate changes in non-culprit coronary plaque burden, stenosis severity, and high-risk plaque features.
Evolocumab will be administered early after randomization in participants assigned to the experimental arm, in addition to standard-of-care lipid-lowering therapy. The treatment is intended to achieve intensive low-density lipoprotein cholesterol reduction and to evaluate its effect on coronary plaque progression or stabilization over 52 weeks.
All participants will undergo photon-counting coronary computed tomography angiography at baseline and at 52 weeks. Imaging will be used to assess changes in total atherosclerotic volume, stenosis severity, and high-risk plaque features in non-culprit coronary vessels.
Aktiv komparator: Active Comparator: Standard Lipid-Lowering Therapy
Participants randomized to this arm will receive guideline-directed standard-of-care lipid-lowering therapy after successful percutaneous coronary intervention for acute coronary syndrome. Participants will undergo serial photon-counting coronary computed tomography angiography at baseline and 52 weeks to evaluate changes in non-culprit coronary plaque burden, stenosis severity, and high-risk plaque features.
All participants will undergo photon-counting coronary computed tomography angiography at baseline and at 52 weeks. Imaging will be used to assess changes in total atherosclerotic volume, stenosis severity, and high-risk plaque features in non-culprit coronary vessels.
Participants will receive guideline-directed standard lipid-lowering therapy according to contemporary clinical practice and investigator judgment.
