      <scientific_title>A phase III, randomized, multicenter, double-blind, two-armed, parallel, active-controlled, non-inferiority clinical trial to compare efficacy and safety of Evolocumab (CinnaGen) versus Evolocumab (Repatha®, Amgen Inc.) in patients with hyperlipidemia receiving concurrent high intensity statin</scientific_title>

      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Other design features: Group sample sizes of 106 and 106 achieve 80% power to detect non-inferiority using a one-sided, two-sample t-test. Efficacy of Repatha® in comparison with placebo for mean Percent change from baseline in LDL-C at week 12 in the reference study is reported 61.8. The margin of non-inferiority is 12.36%. The true difference between the means is assumed to be 0. The significance level (alpha) of the test is 0.025. The data are drawn from populations with standard deviations of 31.96. Considering a drop-out rate of about 15% total sample size required is 250 (125/125) patients, Randomization description: The randomization plan of the patients will be carried out centrally using an R-CRAN software version 4.2.1. Using permuted block randomization, blocks (length of each block is 4 or 2) will be made, for a total of 250 patients (with 1:1 allocation ratio). Once the randomization will be made, each patient will be given a code with which she/he will be identified throughout the study. The assigned code will be made up of 3 numbers (corresponding to the randomization number) and by 4 initials (corresponding to the 2 first letters of the first name, the 2 first letters of the first surname) and 2 numbers (center code). The randomization number will be assigned in a consecutive way, Blinding description: In general, both studied medications are diagnostically indistinguishable for both patients and medical staff, as they share identical physical characteristics in terms of shape, size, material, and color, rendering them visually indiscernible. The packaging for both formulations of Evolocumab is uniform to eliminate visual distinctions. Additionally, appropriate research labels are designed for the boxes and syringes of the studied medications, adhering to EMEA regulations. Both the brand and factory-produced medications are reliably manufactured and packaged in an identical manner. Specific coding on the medication labels links each medication to the respective patient, keeping patients, medical staff, and other personnel unaware of the type of administered medication. Information regarding patient groups and the type of medication administered is not disclosed to researchers, and sealed, Decoding packets are maintained securely by CRO representative. Furthermore, individuals conducting result preparation and data analyses remain unaware of patient group classifications.</study_design>
