How should the fact that CV risk is not binary, but progressive, influence the decision to use a PCSK9 inhibitor?

Professor Bhatt, you presented the pharmacoeconomic “in trial” analysis for alirocumab based on the ODYSSEY Outcomes Trial. Can you discuss the clinical implications of your analysis, and how reduced costs for alirocumab will affect IC practice?

Although 70 mg/dL is the target threshold identified by both ESC and AHA, should the interventionalist, in a patient who has just undergone a PCI and has an LDL-C of 69 mg/dL, be considered adequately CV risk-mitigated?

IC and lipid specialists are challenged to maximize CV risk reduction in high-risk populations. How should they approach the 70 mg/dL LDL-C target identified in the AHA Guidelines, and when is the 30 mg/dL – 70 mg/dL even more desirable?

As an interventional cardiologist in the UK, what do the results from the ODYSSEY Outcomes Trial and price reductions mean to the clinician at the front lines of cardiology care as far as access to and triggers for deploying a PCSK9 inhibitor?

What other markers, besides LDL-C levels, do you believe we should consider to refine CV risk stratification?

From the view of an interventional cardiologist and a lipid medicine/atherosclerosis specialist, can you discuss what LDL-C thresholds vs. clinical burden/clinical history thresholds are important for patient selection for PCSK9-based risk reduction?
