Background: For the patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) for at least 1 year is recommended in the guidelines to minimize the risk of stent thrombosis. Persistently uncovered stent strut means delayed neointima formation and extend the window of time in which the stent is prone to thrombosis. Previous studies showed that statins could improve post-stenting strut endothelial coverage for patients undergoing PCI. However, there are lack of evidences on whether early initiation of proprotein convertase subtilisin/Kexin type 9 monoclonal antibody (PCSK9mAb) after PCI in ACS patients can further improve the rate of stent strut coverage on the background of oral lipid-lowering therapy (LLT). Methods: This is a single-center, randomized trial to enroll 36 patients undergoing PCI with a clinical diagnosis of non-ST-segment elevation ACS. The baseline level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) of these patients are between 1.4 mmol/L and 3.4 mmol/L. Patients will be assigned to intensive lipid-lowering therapy (LLT) with PCSK9mAb group and conventional LLT without PCSK9mAb group for 12 weeks in a clinical follow-up setting according to 1: 1 randomization. the rate of stent strut endothelial coverage by optical coherence tomography (OCT) examination at 12 weeks after enrollment between the groups will be compared. Conclusion: This will be the first study to investigate changes in the rate of stent strut endothelial coverage under intensive LLT with PCSK9mAb by OCT examination in ACS patients undergoing PCI. The finding of this study will provide clinical evidence for future research about the hypothesis of a novel strategy of “intensive LLT (PCSK9mAb + statin ± ezetimibe) combined with shortened DAPT duration” for ACS patients undergoing PCI.Clinical Trial Registration: URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov.
