Introduction: Inclisiran is a novel posttranscriptional gene silencing therapy that inhibits proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) synthesis by RNA interference and has a potent, dose-dependent, durable effect in lowering LDL-C, and therefore is an effective drug to treat dyslipidemia, reducing the risk for acute cardiovascular (CV) events. It is safe and well-tolerated. Areas covered: This paper aims to review the mechanism of action of inclisiran while evaluating its efficacy and safety in the treatment of dyslipidemia from data of the clinical trials in the ORION program. Expert opinion: Data from the clinical trials in the ORION program demonstrated efficacy and safety of inclisiran in patients with dyslipidemia. Adverse events were similar in the inclisiran and placebo groups in the clinical trials, although injection-site reactions were more frequent with inclisiran than with placebo. Although the combination of efficacy and safety makes inclisiran a good option for the treatment of dyslipidemia compared to other PCSK9 targeting therapeutic strategies, however, further studies should exclude the possibility that inclisiran, through lower-affinity interactions, may influence other mRNAs in the physiological milieu.

[Background]: Homozygous familial hypercholesterolaemia (HoFH) is a rare inherited disorder resulting in extremely elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels and premature atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Current guidance about its management and prognosis stems from small studies, mostly from high-income countries. The objective of this study was to assess the clinical and genetic characteristics, as well as the impact, of current practice on health outcomes of HoFH patients globally., [Methods]: The HoFH International Clinical Collaborators registry collected data on patients with a clinical, or genetic, or both, diagnosis of HoFH using a retrospective cohort study design. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04815005., [Findings]: Overall, 751 patients from 38 countries were included, with 565 (75%) reporting biallelic pathogenic variants. The median age of diagnosis was 12∙0 years (IQR 5∙5–27∙0) years. Of the 751 patients, 389 (52%) were female and 362 (48%) were male. Race was reported for 527 patients; 338 (64%) patients were White, 121 (23%) were Asian, and 68 (13%) were Black or mixed race. The major manifestations of ASCVD or aortic stenosis were already present in 65 (9%) of patients at diagnosis of HoFH. Globally, pretreatment LDL cholesterol levels were 14∙7 mmol/L (IQR 11∙6–18∙4). Among patients with detailed therapeutic information, 491 (92%) of 534 received statins, 342 (64%) of 534 received ezetimibe, and 243 (39%) of 621 received lipoprotein apheresis. On-treatment LDL cholesterol levels were lower in high-income countries (3∙93 mmol/L, IQR 2∙6–5∙8) versus non-highincome countries (9∙3 mmol/L, 6∙7–12∙7), with greater use of three or more lipid-lowering therapies (LLT; highincome 66% vs non-high-income 24%) and consequently more patients attaining guideline-recommended LDL cholesterol goals (high-income 21% vs non-high-income 3%). A first major adverse cardiovascular event occurred a decade earlier in non-high-income countries, at a median age of 24∙5 years (IQR 17∙0–34∙5) versus 37∙0 years (29∙0–49∙0) in high-income countries (adjusted hazard ratio 1∙64, 95% CI 1∙13–2∙38)., [Interpretation]: Worldwide, patients with HoFH are diagnosed too late, undertreated, and at high premature ASCVD risk. Greater use of multi-LLT regimens is associated with lower LDL cholesterol levels and better outcomes. Significant global disparities exist in treatment regimens, control of LDL cholesterol levels, and cardiovascular event-free survival, which demands a critical re-evaluation of global health policy to reduce inequalities and improve outcomes for all patients with HoFH., Amsterdam University Medical Centers, Location Academic Medical Center; Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania; and European Atherosclerosis Society

The drug discovery process is very long, costly, and challenging but essential in medical sciences. Advancements in new techniques to improve the efficacy of drug development are therefore needed. The 3D cell culture technique represents a step forward in studying human tissues and diseases, and developed in vitro 3D tissue models can be an excellent alternative to traditional 2D cell cultures and animal testing. They can replicate the physiological microenvironment of the living tissue-mimicking extracellular matrix (ECM), cell-cell/cell-ECM interactions, and the spatial cellular arrangement, thus such models are useful systems to evaluate better and comprehend drug responsiveness. The 3D bioprinting technique brings many advantages in the fabrication of 3D tissue models, such as custom-made microarchitecture, high-throughput capability, and co-culture ability. However, this technique has challenges related to cells and materials requirements as well as tissue maturation and functionality. This review introduces the leading bioprinting technologies (extrusion-based, inkjet-based and laser-assisted) and summarizes and discusses their applications to build organ models such as liver, intestine, cardiac, and tumor tissues for applications in drug discovery and drug toxicity studies. The different bioprinting approaches and 3D printed tissue constructs employed to evaluate drug dose-response and drug metabolism are critically reviewed and discussed.

The primary and secondary prevention strategies of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) largely rely on the management of arterial hypertension and hypercholesterolemia, two major risk factors possibly linked in pathophysiological terms by the renin-angiotensin system activation and that often coexist in the same patient synergistically increasing cardiovascular risk. The classic pharmacologic armamentarium to reduce hypercholesterolemia has been based in the last two decades on statins, ezetimibe, and bile acid sequestrants. More recently numerous novel, additive resources targeting different pathways in LDL cholesterol metabolism have emerged. They include drugs targeting the proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) (inhibitory antibodies; small-interfering RNAs), the angiopoietin-like protein 3 (inhibitory antibodies), and the ATP-citrate lyase (the inhibitory oral prodrug, bempedoic acid), with PCSK9 inhibitors and bempedoic acid already approved for clinical use. With the potential of at least halving LDL cholesterol levels faster and more effectively with the addition of ezetimibe than with high-intensity statin alone, and even more with the addition of the novel available drugs, this document endorsed by the Italian Society of Hypertension proposes a novel paradigm for the treatment of the hypertensive patient with hypercholesterolemia at high and very high ASCVD risk. Our proposal is based on the use as a first-line of a preferably fixed combination of lipid-lowering drugs, under the motto "Our goal: achieve control. No setback: combine and check".
