NCT03379558
Brief Summary:
Primary Objective:
To estimate the overall combined rate of major structural birth defects in infants of mothers with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and/or familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) exposed to Praluent® (alirocumab) during pregnancy when used to treat hypercholesterolemia and to compare that rate to unexposed disease-matched and unexposed non-diseased comparison pregnancies.
Secondary Objectives:
* Secondary objectives are to estimate the rates of the outcomes in pregnancies/infants of mothers with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and/or familial hypercholesterolemia exposed to alirocumab during pregnancy when used to treat hypercholesterolemia and to compare that rate to unexposed disease-matched and non-diseased comparison pregnancies, and secondarily to compare the rates of these outcomes in the unexposed disease-matched pregnancies to the rates in the unexposed non-diseased comparison pregnancies.
* Safety and tolerability of alirocumab.
