Description of intervention(s) / exposure
ACP-501 Recombinant Lecithin:Cholesterol Acyl Transferase (rLCAT)

Dose Administered : Single dose at 9mg/kg
Mode of Administration : Intravenously infused over 4 hours
Intervention code [1] 286054 0
Treatment: Drugs
Comparator / control treatment
Placebo treatment will be used (saline)
Control group
Placebo

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 288359 0
Primary Outcome : By using atherectomy catheters, plaques will be extracted from arteries of patients. Cholesterol content in these plaques will be analyzed. Cohorts receiving rLCAT will be compared to controls.

Tests used : Freezing sections in OCT compound, sectioning and subsequently staining with oil red O to study lipid content.
Timepoint [1] 288359 0
Primary Timepoint : Post infusion of rLCAT
Primary outcome [2] 288362 0
Primary Outcome : Blood will be collected pre- and post- infusion of rLCAT. Changes in fasting lipid profile and inflammatory markers will be compared. Cohorts receiving rLCAT will be compared to controls.

Test used : We will use COBAS to look at lipid profiles. Inflammatory markers will be assessed by using ELSA kits.
Timepoint [2] 288362 0
Primary Timepoint : Pre and Post infusion of rLCAT
Secondary outcome [1] 299962 0
Secondary Outcome : From blood collected, we can determine the effects of rLCAT on existing LCAT levels in patients and (if possible) look at pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of rLCAT as well.

Test used : LCAT will be assessed by using ELSA kits.
Timepoint [1] 299962 0
Secondary Timepoints : Pre and Post infusion of rLCAT
Secondary outcome [2] 299984 0
Secondary Outcome : From blood collected, we can determine the change, if any, in functionality of HDL by observing cholesterol efflux.

Test used : In-house in vitro system where plasma is incubated with cells containing labelled cholesterol.
Timepoint [2] 299984 0
Secondary Timepoints : Pre and Post infusion of rLCAT
