1 Cholesterol Medicines New & Old: What to Use When Patrick E. McBride, M.D., M.P.H. Division of Cardiovascular Medicine Preventive Cardiology Program Disclosures McBride no conflicts of interest Outline New lipid guidelines Overview of key points Evidence of statins and PCKS - 9 CVD risk prediction Myalgias Beyond the guidelines Do HDL-C and TG matter? When to use non-statin medications The use of niacin and fish oil
2 2013 ACC/AHA Guideline on the Treatment of Blood Cholesterol to Reduce Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Risk in Adults Endorsed by the American Association of Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Rehabilitation, American Pharmacists Association, American Society for Preventive Cardiology, Association of Black Cardiologists, Preventive Cardiovascular Nurses Association, and Women Heart: The National Coalition for Women with Heart Disease Guideline Scope Focus on treatment of blood cholesterol to reduce ASCVD risk in adults Emphasize adherence to a heart healthy lifestyle - See lifestyle guidelines Identify individuals most likely to benefit from cholesterol-lowering therapy: statin benefit groups Identify safety issues Advances in the Guidelines 1. Focus is on treatment of LDL-C 2. Treatment is based on risk: not just on LDL-C 3. Risk assessment - evidence to support its use in identifying patients to treat 4. Treatment based on evidence and the intensity of treatment;; no LDL targets
3 Why Not Continue to Treat to Target? 1. Current RCT data do not indicate precise targets 2. Unknown magnitude of additional ASCVD risk reduction with one target compared to another target 3. Unknown rate of additional adverse effects from multidrug therapy used to achieve specific goals 4. Unknown net benefit from treat-to-target approach No LDL Targets or Measurements? No targets does not mean not measuring panel to see if appropriate intensity achieved (hypo-responders) Adherence! < 50% take medicine as prescribed LDL-C <40 mg/dl is too low - lower statin dose Consider adjusting therapy (lifestyle, other) if LDL-C not low enough for risk Statin Benefit Groups Clinical ASCVD (includes stroke and PAD) LDL-C 190 mg/dl w/out secondary cause Primary prevention Diabetes mellitus (DM) and years old: LDL-C mg/dl Primary Prevention: No DM and age years: LDL-C mg/dl, if ASCVD risk 7.5% Requires risk discussion consider statin therapy after lifestyle trial
4 Intensity of Statin Therapy Use evidence-based therapy High risk patients = high intensity Rx 10 year ASCVD risk 7.5% (I, A) Moderate risk = moderate intensity Rx 10 year ASCVD risk 5%-7.5% (IIA, B) Consider if LDL-C > 160 mg/dl, genetic dyslipidemia, family hx of premature heart disease, hscrp> 2 mg/l, CAC >300 or 75 th %tile, ABI 0.9, or high lifetime risk (IIB, C) Primary Prevention: Global Risk Assessment To estimate 10-year / lifetime ASCVD risk New Pooled Cohort Risk Equations White and black, men and women More accurately identifies higher risk individuals for statin therapy Focuses statin therapy on those most likely to benefit Consider not initiating statin therapy in high-risk groups not found to benefit from statins (advanced HF, hemodialysis) Primary Prevention: Statin Therapy Thresholds for initiating statin therapy derived from RCTs Before initiating statin therapy, engage in a discussion of the potential for ASCVD risk reduction benefits, potential for adverse effects, medication interactions, and patient preferences
5 Statins Reduce CVD Risk Cholesterol Treatment Trialists (CTT) Collaborators Prospective meta-analysis of RCTs conducted from 1994 to ,526 subjects in 21 statin vs. control 39,612 subjects in 5 more vs. less intensive Median follow-up = 5.1 years Lancet 2010;;376:167 0 CTT Collaborators Improved CVD outcomes per 39 mg/dl reduction in LDL-C (all p<0.0001) 10% reduction in all-cause mortality 20% reduction in coronary mortality 21% reduction in major CVD events 26% reduction in MI or CHD death 24% reduction in PCI/CABG 15% reduction in stroke Lancet 2010;;376:167 0 CTT Collaborators Subgroups
6 Intensity of Statin Therapy*** *Individual responses to statin therapy varied in RCTs - expected to vary in clinical practice. Simvastatin 80 mg was evaluated in RCTs but is not recommended by the FDA due to the risk of myopathy & rhabdomyolysis Safety RCTs & meta-analyses used to identify important safety considerations Allow estimation of net benefit from statins Expert guidance on management of statinassociated adverse effects, including muscle symptoms Advise use of additional information including pharmacists, manufacturers prescribing information, & drug information centers for complex cases Creatinine Kinase and ALT Baseline/ongoing measures of CK and ALT not needed (Routine CK Class III) Consider if underlying muscle or liver disease or patient at increased risk Family or personal history Concomitant meds that may interact Clinical problems that predispose Measure if patient is symptomatic
7 Management of Mild-Moderate Statin-Associated Myalgias Discontinue statin until sx are evaluated Evaluate the patient for other conditions that might increase the risk for muscle symptoms* Hypothyroidism, kidney/liver disease, rheumatologic disorders (PMR), steroid myopathy, low Vitamin D status, or primary muscle diseases If after 2 months without statin Rx, muscle sx or elevated CK levels do not resolve completely, consider other causes of muscle sx Management of Severe Myalgia or Fatigue on Statin Therapy Promptly discontinue the statin Evaluate for rhabomyolysis CK Creatinine Urine analysis for myoglobinuria Statin Safety - Neurocognitive Meta-analysis of 23,443;; statin exposure 3-25 years No adverse effect of statins on cognition long-term data may support a beneficial role for statins in the prevention of dementia 29% RRR incident dementia (HR 0.71, CI: ) Systematic review Published data do not suggest an adverse effect of statins on cognition But: issues of selection and ascertainment Strength limited, esp. with high intensity statin Swiger KJ, et al. Mayo ClinProc2013;;88:121 Richardson K, et al. Ann Inter n Med 2013;;159:688

N Engl J Med 2015;;372:2387 IMPROVE-IT Statin + Ezetimibe: Absolute Benefit 2% Cannon CP et al. N Engl J Med 2015;;372: PCKS-9 Inhibitors Proprotein convertase subtilisin / kexin type 9 Enzyme that modulates LDLR density on hepatocytes (and intestines, kidneys, CNS) Secreted from hepatocytes bindsldlreceptor endocytosis and degradation in lysosomes Inverse relationship between the blood PCSK9 level and LDLR density Inhibition of PCSK9 prevents LDLRdegradation and preserves LDLR recycling to the hepatocyte surface Each receptor normally recycles approximately 150x MAb prevents binding of PCSK-9 to the LDL / LDLR complex greater LDLR density LDL-C clearance

11 Beyond the Guidelines Low HDL-C Hypertriglyceridemia Combined dyslipidemias Lipoprotein evaluation / treatment No RCTs / recommendations Biomarkers Atherosclerosis imaging Medications for VLDL / TGs / HDL Fibrates (e.g. fenofibrate / gemfibrozil) increase lipoprotein lipase production and decrease VLDL production Niacin (vitamin B3) decreases VLDL production Omega 3 fatty acids e.g. fish oil, flax oil reduce VLDL production Use of Non-Statin Lipid Therapies If TGs >500 mg/dl Fibrates (or niacin or fish oil) Prevent pancreatitis and hepatic steatosis (non-guideline) Consider addition of a non-statin medication Statin intolerance Persistent, less than therapeutic response Assure compliance with meds and lifestyle High-intensity: if LDL <50% or >100 mg/dl Moderate intensity: <30% decrease Use the maximum tolerated dose of statin
12 Use of Non-Statin Lipid Therapies Risk-reduction benefits should outweigh potential for adverse effects Focus on: Clinical ASCVD <75 years of age Baseline LDL-C 190 mg/dl (genetic) Diabetes mellitus, years of age Prefer non-statin cholesterol-lowering medication that reduced ASCVD events in RCTs Use of Non-Statin Lipid Therapies Evidence to support monotherapy with niacin and bile acid resins in individuals with high total or LDL cholesterol (older studies CDP, LRC-CPPT) Evidence for using niacin and fibrates as monotherapy in individuals with high TG and low HDL-C (VA-HIT, HHS) Residual CVD Risk on Statins CV Event Rate (%) S CARE HPS PROVE-IT Control Statin TNT
