Reducing LDL with PCSK9 inhibitors—the clinical benefit of lipid drugs

Everett, Brendan M., Smith, Robert J., Hiatt, William R.·2015·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

Interview with Dr. Kevin Schulman on the recent approval of two PCSK9 inhibitors and what their prices could mean for insurance premiums. (09:12)Download Despite limitations in the data on the two new PCSK9 inhibitors, an FDA advisory committee has voted to approve alirocumab and evolocumab. But committee members emphatically stated that LDL cholesterol levels are not a reliable surrogate for cardiovascular benefit.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • PCSK9 loss-of-function or pharmacologic inhibition lowers LDL cholesterol, but effects on plasma TG in treated patients are less robust and reproducible.

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.
