Clinical development of bempedoic acid: phase 2 and phase 3 clinical trials
1Servicio de Cardiología, Hospital Quirón Salud Bizkaia.
Abstract:
We review all the phase II and III studies carried out with bempedoic acid at the dose of 180mg, alone or in combination with different lipid-lowering drugs and in different subgroups of patients that unequivocally show the efficacy and safety of the drug. We point out some of the potential advantages of its use in clinical practice in patients with statin intolerance and the efficacy in reducing LDL-c when combined with statins, and with statins and ezetimibe, as well as in reducing inflammation markers pending the results of the CV Clear Outcomes trial that will end in 2022.
