Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease: registrational readout pending
Entered Phase 3 on partial signal mid-stage evidence. Registrational readout expected around 2031-03.
KRAKEN (NCT05563246): The trial randomized 233 participants to three muvalaplin doses or matching placebo and kept participants and investigators blinded. The primary endpoint was met, with statistically significant reductions in lipoprotein(a) at every dose, but lipoprotein(a) is a surrogate biomarker rather than a clinical cardiovascular outcome, so the findings provide moderate evidence.
