Purpose of review: In this review, we will discuss the data from early clinical studies of MK-0616 and summarize clinical trials of other oral proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors.
Recent findings: The success of PCSK9 inhibition with monoclonal antibody injections has fueled the development of additional therapies targeting PCSK9, including oral formulations, the most advanced of which is MK-0616. MK-0616 is a novel, orally administered macrocyclic peptide that binds to PCSK9 and inhibits binding of PCSK9 to the LDL receptor, thereby decreasing plasma levels of LDL-C. Clinical trial data on the safety and efficacy of MK-0616 are promising and report LDL-C-lowering efficacy comparable to that provided by injectable PCSK9 inhibitors. Ongoing and future studies of oral PCSK9 inhibitors in development will evaluate the safety, efficacy, and effectiveness of these agents and their potential role in preventing cardiovascular disease events.
期刊介绍:
The aim of this journal is to systematically provide expert views on current basic science and clinical advances in the field of atherosclerosis and highlight the most important developments likely to transform the field of cardiovascular prevention, diagnosis, and treatment.
We accomplish this aim by appointing major authorities to serve as Section Editors who select leading experts from around the world to provide definitive reviews on key topics and papers published in the past year. We also provide supplementary reviews and commentaries from well-known figures in the field. An Editorial Board of internationally diverse members suggests topics of special interest to their country/region and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research.
