Lipoprotein(a) Reduction in Persons with Cardiovascular Disease
Open accessAbstract
BACKGROUNDLipoprotein(a) levels are genetically determined and, when elevated, are a risk factor for cardiovascular disease and aortic stenosis.There are no approved pharmacologic therapies to lower lipoprotein(a) levels. METHODSWe conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-ranging trial involving 286 patients with established cardiovascular disease and screening lipoprotein(a) levels of at least 60 mg per deciliter (150 nmol per liter).Patients received the hepatocyte-directed antisense oligonucleotide AKCEA-APO(a)-L Rx , referred to here as APO(a)-L Rx (20, 40, or 60 mg every 4 weeks; 20 mg every 2 weeks; or 20 mg every week), or saline placebo subcutaneously for 6 to 12 months.The lipoprotein(a) level was measured with an isoform-independent assay.The primary end point was the percent change in lipoprotein(a) level from baseline to month 6 of exposure (week 25 in the groups that received monthly doses and week 27 in the groups that received more frequent doses). RESULTSThe median baseline lipoprotein(a) levels in the six groups ranged from 204.5 to 246.6 nmol per liter.Administration of APO(a)-L Rx resulted in dose-dependent decreases in lipoprotein(a) levels, with mean percent decreases of 35% at a dose of 20 mg every 4 weeks, 56% at 40 mg every 4 weeks, 58% at 20 mg every 2 weeks, 72% at 60 mg every 4 weeks, and 80% at 20 mg every week, as compared with 6% with placebo (P values for the comparison with placebo ranged from 0.003 to <0.001).There were no significant differences between any APO(a)-L Rx dose and placebo with respect to platelet counts, liver and renal measures, or influenza-like symptoms.The most common adverse events were injection-site reactions.CONCLUSIONS APO(a)-L Rx reduced lipoprotein(a) levels in a dose-dependent manner in patients who had elevated lipoprotein(a) levels and established cardiovascular disease.

The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“Lp(a) has been identified as an independent risk marker for CVD as it exerts pro-atherogenic, pro-inflammatory, and pro-thrombotic effects which may play a critical role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis [182].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
