To compare the safety, tolerability and LDL-C response after 24 Weeks of monthly (every 4 weeks \[Q4W\]) subcutaneous (SC) dosing of LIB003 300 mg with monthly (Q4W) SC dosing of 420 mg evolocumab (Repatha®) in patients with HoFH on stable diet and oral LDL-C-lowering drug therapy
Patients with verified HoFH on stable and continuing doses of oral lipid lowering therapy will be randomized to either evolocumab 420 mg Q4W or LIB003 300 mg Q4W for 24 weeks (Period A). At Week 24, subjects will be crossed over to LIB003 if they were on evolocumab and vice versa for the next 24 weeks (Period B).
