Innovative immunotherapy for hypercholesterolaemia

As part of the continuing professional education slide resource programme, PCSK9 Forum announces the next in a series of complementary slide decks.

Why does immunotherapy offer a new approach to improve LDL cholesterol goal attainment?

Therapeutic approaches to managing LDL cholesterol focus on small molecule drugs, such as statins. Although effective, these also pose a number of challenges for clinicians, including their specificity, dosing interval, variability in responsiveness and potential for drug-drug interactions. Additionally, due to their small size, there is also the possibility that these agents may cross the blood-brain barrier.

The discovery of PCSK9 as a key player in the regulation of circulating LDL cholesterol levels paved the way for a new therapeutic approach: monoclonal antibody therapy targeting PCSK9.

The latest complementary slide resource from PCSK9 Forum provides a background to immunotherapy for clinicians involved in the management of patients with hypercholesterolaemia, highlighting the advantages of this novel therapeutic approach.
