ClinicaliQ Trial Snapshot
  • A Multicenter Trial Assessing the Impact of Lipoprotein(a) Lowering With Pelacarsen (TQJ230) on the Progression of Calcific Aortic Valve Stenosis — Recruiting • Phase II • Cardiology / Cardiovascular • NCT05646381.
  • What is being tested: Pelacarsen (TQJ230), a subcutaneous antisense oligonucleotide that lowers lipoprotein(a), is being evaluated against placebo to determine whether reducing Lp(a) levels can slow the progression of calcific aortic valve stenosis (CAVS).
  • Patient eligibility overview: The trial enrolls patients with established calcific aortic valve stenosis and elevated lipoprotein(a) levels; specific inclusion criteria typically require measurable aortic valve disease on imaging and baseline Lp(a) concentrations above defined thresholds.
