In this activity, an expert in hyperlipidemia management examines the evidence for PCSK9-targeting therapies to prevent primary and secondary cardiovascular (CV) events. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Summarize current clinical evidence and guideline recommendations for the treatment of hyperlipidemia, both for primary and secondary prevention of CV events; Recognize novel mechanisms of action and recent clinical evidence on approved and emerging investigational lipid-lowering therapies that target PCSK9; and Develop treatment protocols using appropriate lipid-lowering therapy including available and emerging agents, alone or in combination, for providing long-term LDL-C reduction and improving adherence.
