The serum pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of olpasiran were calculated using standard noncompartmental methods.

Number of Participants Who Experienced Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
From first dose of trial until the end of trial; median (min, max) duration was 8.54 (0.23, 23.92) months

An adverse event was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical trial participant. A TEAE was defined as any event with onset after the administration of the first dose of investigational product and up to and including the end of treatment date, or end of trial for participants who discontinued the trial during the treatment period. Clinically significant changes in vital signs, electrocardiograms (ECGs), and safety laboratory analytes were included as TEAEs.

Frequently asked questions about AMG 890

What is AMG 890?

AMG 890 is an investigational RNA therapy being developed by Amgen Inc. for cardiovascular disease. It is designed to act on lipoprotein(a) and has been studied in a Phase 1 clinical trial in subjects with elevated plasma lipoprotein(a). It is not an approved medicine.

What does AMG 890 target?

AMG 890 targets lipoprotein(a), often abbreviated Lp(a), a circulating lipoprotein associated with cardiovascular risk. It is an RNA therapy, meaning it works through an RNA-based mechanism directed at lipoprotein(a). The Phase 1 study enrolled subjects with elevated plasma lipoprotein(a).

Who makes AMG 890?

AMG 890 is developed by Amgen Inc., which trades on Nasdaq under the ticker AMGN. Amgen is the sponsor of the clinical program studying the drug in cardiovascular disease.

What phase is AMG 890 in?

AMG 890 is in Phase 1 clinical development. It is investigational and has not been approved by the FDA. The Phase 1 study has been completed, and no active trials are currently listed for the program.

What clinical trials is AMG 890 in?

AMG 890 has been studied in one Phase 1 trial, NCT03626662, titled a safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics study of AMG 890 in subjects with elevated plasma lipoprotein(a). The trial was completed, enrolled 79 participants, was randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled, and ran in the United States and Australia.
