Alirocumab Neutralizes the Pro-inflammatory Risk of Oxidized Phospholipids After Acute Coronary Syndrome

Alirocumab Neutralizes the Pro-inflammatory Risk of Oxidized Phospholipids After Acute Coronary Syndrome

A secondary analysis of the ODYSSEY OUTCOMES trial reveals that oxidized phospholipids on apolipoprotein B-100 (OxPL-apoB) independently predict cardiovascular risk in ACS patients, particularly when Lp(a) levels are low. Treatment with alirocumab effectively mitigates this risk while significantly reducing biomarker levels.
