Therefore, the prevention of chronic post-transplant sequelae, such as chronic kidney disease, allograft vasculopathy, and malignancies is becoming increasingly important. Everolimus, an inhibitor of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), is increasingly used for immunosuppression after heart transplantation. However, everolimus may cause a characteristic complex of adverse effects, including dyslipidemia. Currently there are no guidelines for the long-term screening and treatment of dyslipidemia in heart transplant recipients treated with everolimus. This article presents a clinical case of hypercholesterolemia that developed after the start of the everolimus treatment in a heart recipient. The patient was a 39-year-old man who underwent orthotopic heart transplantation for ischemic cardiomyopathy in 2012 (at the age of 27). In 2019, the patient's immunosuppressive therapy was converted from mycophenolate mofetil to everolimus due to the development of cardiac allograft vasculopathy. The change in the immunosuppressive therapy was associated with increases in total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, which were not reversed with a combined lipid-lowering therapy (maximum doses of rosuvastatin, ezetimibe, fenofibrate). A decrease in lipid levels was achieved with a blocker of hepatic proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 synthesis at the level of microribonucleic acid (inclisiran). This case demonstrates the difficulties in correcting dyslipidemia in patients with cardiac allograft, since the treatment with the immunosuppressant everolimus worsens existing dyslipidemia. However, the combination lipid-lowering therapy, that affects various elements of the pathogenesis (specifically, the combined inhibition of hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase with a statin, cholesterol absorption from the small intestine with ezetimibe, and PCSK9 messenger RNA with inclisiran), provides an effective control of blood lipids and minimizing the adverse effects of immunosuppressive therapy, such as cardiac allograft vasculopathy.</p>","PeriodicalId":54750,"journal":{"name":"Kardiologiya","volume":"64 7","pages":"72-76"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141894902","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
