PCSK9 Inhibitors Effective in Reducing Lipids and Cardiovascular EventsPCSK9抑制剂有效降低血脂和心血管事件

Randomized studies showed that evolocumab and alirocumab, two monoclonal antibodies that inhibit proprotein convertase subtilisin–kexin type 9 (PCSK9) significantly reduced LDL cholesterol levels and reduced the incidence of cardiovascular events. 4465 patients who had completed 1 of 12 phase 2 or 3 studies of evolocumab were randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive either evolocumab (140 mg every 2 weeks or 420 mg monthly) plus standard therapy or standard therapy alone. Patients were followed for a median of 11.1 months. As compared with standard therapy alone, evolocumab reduced the level of LDL cholesterol by 61% and cardiovascular outcomes by 53%. Most adverse events occurred with similar frequency in the two groups, although neurocognitive events were reported more frequently in the evolocumab group. 2341 patients at high risk for cardiovascular events who had LDL cholesterol levels of 70 mg per deciliter (1.8 mmol per liter) or more and were receiving treatment with statins at the maximum tolerated dose (the highest dose associated with an acceptable side-effect profile), with or without other lipid-lowering therapy were randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive alirocumab (150 mg) or placebo as a 1-ml subcutaneous injection every 2 weeks for 78 weeks. Alirocumab reduced the level of LDL cholesterol by 62% and the rate of major adverse cardiovascular events was lower with alirocumab than with placebo (1.7% vs. 3.3%, post hoc analysis). The alirocumab group, as compared with the placebo group, had higher rates of injection-site reactions, myalgia, neurocognitive events, and ophthalmologic events. The new class of drug could be used for patients who have elevated cholesterol levels even after maximum-dose statin therapy, as well as for patients who are statin-intolerant. A systematic review and meta-analysis also suggest that PCSK9 inhibitors reduced all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality.
