FOURIER: Use of PCSK9 inhibitor evolocumab - ACC.17

This study – presented during an ACC.17 late breaking trial session and simultaneously published in NEJM – tracked the use of the PCSK9 inhibitor evolocumab. What were the clinical profiles of the over 27,000 high-risk patients enrolled in this multi-year trial? Were they on statins? What were the results on risk reduction in primary and secondary endpoints and why does this constitute a “beautiful regression”? Join M. Sabatine, the study’s lead author, and find the answers to these and other questions here.
