Research Evaluating Benefits of VASCEPA®/VAZKEPA® (icosapent ethyl) to be Presented at the American College of Cardiology’s (ACC) Annual Scientific Session & Expo
DUBLIN, Ireland and BRIDGEWATER, N.J., March 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Amarin Corporation plc (NASDAQ:AMRN) today announced that additional patient subgroup analyses from the landmark REDUCE-IT outcomes trial and mechanistic data on icosapent ethyl (IPE)/eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) will be presented at the American College of Cardiology’s Annual Scientific Session & Expo, April 6 – 8, 2024 in Atlanta, GA.
- These data demonstrate the molecule’s impact in reducing patients’ residual cardiovascular event risk across these patient sub-groups regardless of their baseline Lp(a) or LDL-C levels.
- Additionally, the meeting provides an opportunity to highlight further evidence regarding the potential mechanistic activity of EPA in reducing cardiovascular events in at-risk patients."
- “This latest research reaffirms Amarin's commitment to advancing cardiovascular care and should help further advance the medical community’s understanding of the role, the value and the potential mechanism of action of VASCEPA/VAZKEPA to reduce cardiovascular events in at-risk patients globally,” concluded Abadir.
- Featured Amarin-supported abstracts to be presented by international academic collaborators at ACC Scientific Sessions 2024 include:
