ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryMean Circulating High Sensitivity C- Reactive Protein (Hs-CRP) Levels at Week 52.Week 52
hs-CRP is a pentameric protein that is rapidly upregulated in response to inflammation and tissue damage and assessed as circulating biomarkers associated with atherosclerosis and cardiovascular risk. Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF) data was reported. Only data from 3 months onwards was carried forward. hs-CRP has a skewed distribution and values were log transformed before analysis. The statistics was calculated on the log transformed data and back transformed. The adjusted geometric means of hs-CRP levels at Week 52 were reported. The levels were analyzed using analysis of co-variance (ANCOVA), with Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) status, pooled country and treatment included as covariates.
Primary
Change From Baseline in the Density of Rotterdam Classification (ROC) Grade III/IV Strain Spots/10 Millimeter (mm) Within the Region of Interest (ROI) on IVUS Grey Scale Based Palpography at the End of Week 52.
Baseline and Week 52
The ROC grade III/IV strain spots per 10 millimetre (mm) within the ROI on intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) grey scale based palpography were assessed and change from Baseline at end of 52 was reported. Change from Baseline was calculated as the density of spots at the end of study minus the density of spots recorded at Baseline. If either value was considered missing then the change from Baseline value was missing for the participant. Between treatment group comparisons of change from Baseline were analyzed using ANCOVA adjusting for ACS status, pooled country, Baseline value, matched segment length and treatment. Adjusted means and associated standard errors for each treatment group were presented. The baseline value for each participant was defined as the last value prior to the first dose of study drug.
SecondaryCirculating Hs-CRP at the End of Week 26.Week 26
hs-CRP is a pentameric protein that is rapidly upregulated in response to inflammation and tissue damage and assessed as circulating biomarkers associated with atherosclerosis and cardiovascular risk. LOCF data was reported. Only data from 3 months onwards was carried forward. hs-CRP has a skewed distribution and values were log transformed before analysis. The statistics was calculated on the log transformed data and back transformed. The adjusted geometric means of hs-CRP levels at Week 26 were reported. The levels were analyzed using ANCOVA, with ACS status, pooled country and treatment included as covariates.
SecondaryMean Lipoprotein Phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) Activity at the End of Week 26 and Week 52Week 26 and Week 52
Lp-PLA2 is a calcium-independent phospholipase A2 enzyme associated with low density lipoprotein (LDL) in plasma. Blood samples were collected at baseline and at Week 4, 13, 26, and 52 and Lp-PLA2 activity was determined. Percentage inhibition of Lp-PLA2 activity relative to baseline was calculated as, percent inhibition = (\[baseline value - post baseline value\] x 100) / baseline value. The baseline value for each participant was defined as the last value prior to the first dose of study drug.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Plaque Volume as IVUS-Grey Scale Assessments at Week 52Baseline and Week 52
Change from Baseline was calculated for each IVUS grey scale assessment recorded at the end of study. The Baseline value for each participant was defined as the last value prior to the first dose of study drug. Change from Baseline was calculated as plaque volume at Week 52 minus Baseline value. The data was analyzed using ANCOVA, with ACS status, pooled country, Baseline value, matched segment length and treatment included as covariates.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Percent Obstruction Volume as IVUS-Grey Scale Assessments at Week 52Baseline and Week 52
Change from Baseline in percent obstruction volume was calculated for each IVUS grey scale assessment recorded. Percent obstruction volume was calculated as (Plaque volume/ Vessel volume \*100). The Baseline value for each participant was defined as the last value prior to the first dose of study drug. Change from Baseline was calculated as plaque volume at Week 52 minus Baseline value. The data was analyzed using ANCOVA, with ACS status, pooled country, baseline value, matched segment length and treatment included as covariates.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Necrotic Core Volume as Intravenous Ultrasound-Virtual Histology (IVUS-VH) Assessments at Week 52Baseline and Week 52
Change from Baseline was calculated for each IVUS-VH assessment recorded at the end of study. The necrotic core volume was calculated as mean necrotic area multiplied by mean of Baseline and follow-up length. Change from Baseline was calculated as plaque volume at Week 52 minus Baseline value. The data was analyzed using ANCOVA, with ACS status, pooled country, Baseline value, matched segment length and treatment included as covariates. The Baseline value for each participant was defined as the last value prior to the first dose of study drug. Change from Baseline in necrotic core volume as IVUS-VH assessments at Week 52 was reported.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Necrotic Core as a Percent of IVUS-VH Plaque at the End of Week 52.Baseline and Week 52
Change from baseline was calculated for each IVUS-VH assessment recorded at the end of study. The baseline value for each participant was defined as the last value prior to the first dose of study drug. Change from baseline in percent necrotic core was calculated as percent necrotic core at Week 52 minus baseline value. The data was analyzed using ANCOVA, with ACS status, pooled country, baseline value, matched segment length and treatment included as covariates. Change from Baseline in necrotic core as a percent of IVUS-VH plaque at the end of week 52 was reported.
SecondaryMean Interlukin 6 (IL-6) Levels as Circulating Biomarkers Associated With Inflammatory Burden at Week 26 and Week 52Week 26 and Week 52
Blood was collected at baseline, Week 4, 13, 26 and 52 for evaluation of biomarkers. Mean IL-6 levels as circulating biomarkers associated with inflammatory burden at Week 26 and Week 52 were assessed and reported. LOCF data was reported. Only data from 3 months onwards was carried forward. IL-6 had a skewed distribution and values were log transformed before analysis. The statistics was calculated on the log transformed data and back transformed. The adjusted geometric means of IL-6 levels at Week 26 and 52 were reported. The levels were analyzed using ANCOVA, with ACS status, pooled country and treatment included as covariates.
SecondaryMean Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1 (ICAM-1) Levels as Circulating Biomarkers Associated With Inflammatory Burden at Week 26 and Week 52Week 26 and Week 52
Blood was collected at baseline, Week 4, 13, 26 and 52 for evaluation of biomarkers. Mean ICAM-1 levels as circulating biomarkers associated with inflammatory burden at Week 26 and Week 52 were assessed and reported. LOCF data was reported. Only data from 3 months onwards was carried forward. ICAM-1 had a skewed distribution and values were log transformed before analysis. The statistics was calculated on the log transformed data and back transformed. The adjusted geometric means of ICAM-1 levels at Week 26 and 52 were reported. The levels were analyzed using ANCOVA, with ACS status, pooled country and treatment included as covariates.
