Summary:
Despite currently available treatments for dyslipidemia, many patients do not reach therapeutic LDL-C goals and others sustain major CV events, even while being treated with adequate doses of medication. LDL-C lowering by inhibiting the action of proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 (PCSK9) appears to be a promising new dyslipidemia treatment.
