NCT05292404

Brief Summary

This is a multi-center, prospective, randomized, controlled study. The patients with STEMI who were to undergo PPCI were divided into PCSK9 inhibitor group (n=80) and conventional treatment group (n=80) using the interactive web response system (IWRS), at a 1:1 ratio. In the PCSK9 inhibitor group, a dose of PCSK9 inhibitor (alirocumab) was injected subcutaneously immediately after PPCI and was administered every two weeks thereafter for 3 months; the control group received conventional treatment. Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) were used to measure myocardial salvage index at 1 week after operation as primary endpoints. Eject fraction at 6 months after operation will also be measured by MRI as secondary endpoints. Serum TnI/T,CKMB levels were detected q8h for three times and and LDL-C levels were detected at 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after operation. Blood inflammation indicators were detected before and 1 week after the operation, and 6 months after the operation.
