Effects of bempedoic acid on markers of inflammation and Lp(a).
Purpose of review: To study the effect of bempedoic acid on markers of inflammation and lipoprotein (a) to help determine if the drug would be useful to treat patients with elevated cardiovascular risks and residual cardiovascular risk despite optimal low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels.
Recent findings: Bempedoic acid is found to cause significant reduction in LDL-C and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) in various randomized clinical trials. Multiple meta-analyses have also found that bempedoic acid therapy leads to reduction in non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C), total cholesterol (TC) and apolipoprotein B (ApoB) levels. However, it has minimal effect on lipoprotein (a) (Lp(a)) level.
Summary: Bempedoic acid is a new lipid-lowering agent that inhibits enzyme ATP-citrate lyase in the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway. Major risk of cardiovascular events and its associated morbidity and mortality are proportional to LDL-C and inflammatory markers levels. It was found that bempedoic acid significantly lowers LDL-C, hs-CRP and other inflammatory markers levels. This drug could potentially be used in patients with elevated cardiovascular risk, in patients with residual cardiovascular risk despite attaining LDL-C goal and in statin intolerant patients.
