This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of implementing a systematic augmented low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) management care pathway initiated in hospitals for patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome. This pathway includes treatment with inclisiran on top of the standard of care (SOC), which consists of statins with or without ezetimibe, compared to a high-intensity SOC regimen alone (statins +/- ezetimibe).
This multi-center phase IV study adopted a two-phase design. The first phase (Day 1 to Day 90) is an open-label, randomized, comparative parallel-group design comparing an LDL-C management strategy that includes inclisiran with SOC versus SOC alone. The second phase is an open-label extension design (Day 90 to Day 210). After the EOI visit, the participants from phase 2 will be invited to participate in a 1-year long-term observational phase to assess medication adherence and satisfaction.

Mean score in the Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQMII)
The Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire about Medication (TSQMII) version II is a validated 11 item scale which, in this study, will assess a patients' satisfaction (with regard to their lipid lowering treatments), providing scores on four scales: 1) side effects, 2) effectiveness, 3) convenience and 4) global, overall, satisfaction. TSQMII assesses patients' satisfaction with medication with a higher score, reflecting greater overall satisfaction (1=extremely dissatisfied and 7=extremely satisfied)
Time frame: Day 210
