Evinacumab for children with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia: a plain language summary. [PDF]
What is this summary about? This is a plain language summary explaining the results of a study assessing a treatment, called evinacumab, for children with a condition called homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia, also known as HoFH. HoFH is a rare genetic disorder that makes the liver less able to remove ‘bad’cholesterol (called low-density ...

New, Novel Lipid-Lowering Agents for Reducing Cardiovascular Risk: Beyond Statins [PDF]
Statins are the cornerstone of the prevention and treatment of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). However, even under optimal statin therapy, a significant residual ASCVD risk remains.

Evinacumab Improved the Homozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia Lipid Metabolism: A Case Report. [PDF]
Homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by high levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and increased risk of early onset atherosclerosis. Evinacumab, an angiopoietin-like protein 3 (ANGPTL3)-inhibiting monoclonal antibody, lowers LDL-C independently of LDL receptor activity.

New Therapeutic Approaches to the Treatment of Dyslipidemia 2: LDL-C and Lp(a)
Dyslipidemia is an important risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). There are abundant and unequivocal data to indicate that low-density lipoproteins (LDL) are a cause of ASCVD.

Longer-Term Efficacy and Safety of Evinacumab in Patients With Refractory Hypercholesterolemia
ImportancePatients with refractory hypercholesterolemia who do not achieve their guideline-defined low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) thresholds despite treatment with maximally tolerated combinations of lipid-lowering therapies (LLTs) have an increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD).ObjectiveTo evaluate longer-term ...
