Abstract
Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), a semi-dominant genetic disease affecting more than 25 million people worldwide, is associated with severe hypercholesterolemia and premature atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Over the last decade, advances in data analysis, screening, diagnosis and cardiovascular risk stratification has significantly improved our ability to deliver precision medicine for these patients. Furthermore, recent updates on guideline recommendations and new therapeutic approaches have also proven to be highly beneficial. It is anticipated that both ongoing and upcoming clinical trials will offer further insights for the care and treatment of FH patients.
