Systematic review and network meta-analysis on the efficacy of evolocumab and other therapies for the management of lipid levels in hyperlipidemia [PDF]

, 2017
Background: The proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors evolocumab and alirocumab substantially reduce low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL‐C) when added to statin therapy in patients who need additional LDL‐C reduction ...

Anacetrapib reduces progression of atherosclerosis, mainly by reducing non-HDL-cholesterol, improves lesion stability and adds to the beneficial effects of atorvastatin [PDF]

, 2017
The present study is the first intervention study in a well-established, translational mouse model for hyperlipidaemia and atherosclerosis showing that anacetrapib dose-dependently reduces atherosclerosis development and adds to the anti-atherogenic ...
