Show Notes
In the September 10, 2024, issue of JACC, the study by Dr. Doron Seeker and colleagues investigates alirocumab's impact on cardiovascular outcomes related to triglyceride levels. Despite effectively lowering LDL cholesterol, alirocumab did not show significant clinical benefit through triglyceride reduction, suggesting that its efficacy may be limited in addressing cardiovascular risk associated with elevated triglycerides.
