An expert discusses how the CLEAR Outcomes trial data demonstrated that bempedoic acid effectively reduces cardiovascular events by 13% in nearly 14,000 statin-intolerant patients over 4.9 years with excellent tolerability, while long-term data from PCSK9 inhibitor studies such as the FOURIER trial show sustained safety and efficacy over five to eight years with the principle that “lower for longer is better,” as patients who started treatment earlier maintained cardiovascular protection advantages that late-starters could never catch up to despite achieving similar LDL reductions.
