Why should clinicians choose this siRNA therapy that targets the liver for management of elevated LDL-C?

  • Sponsored by

  • Overview

    LEQVIO® (inclisiran) is a first-in-class small interfering RNA (siRNA) that treats low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol in patients with primary hyperlipidemia who have been unable to reach their recommended LDL-C goal with diet and statin therapy. LEQVIO is designed to selectively target the liver. To learn more about this MOA, join Dr Stephanie Saucier, Noninvasive Cardiologist from Hartford, Connecticut, and Dr Richard Wright, Clinical Cardiologist and Cardiovascular Pharmacologist from Santa Monica, California. 

    Dr. Saucier and Dr. Wright have been compensated for their time.

  • INDICATIONS

    LEQVIO (inclisiran) injection is indicated as an adjunct to diet and statin therapy for the treatment of adults with primary hyperlipidemia, including heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH), to reduce low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C).

  • IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

    LEQVIO is contraindicated in patients with a prior serious hypersensitivity reaction to inclisiran or any of the excipients in LEQVIO. Serious hypersensitivity reactions have included angioedema. Adverse reactions in clinical trials (≥3% of patients treated with LEQVIO and more frequently than placebo) were injection site reaction, arthralgia, and bronchitis.
