While high-intensity statins remain the first-line treatment to prevent recurrent ASCVD events in secondary prevention patients, ezetimibe and PCSK9 inhibitors are evidence-based non-statin agents that can be used when residual on top of maximally tolerated statin therapy in patients deemed to be at very-high risk of recurrent ASCVD events.

While gain-of-function mutations aggravate the degradation of LDLR as in familial hypercholesterolemia whereas loss of function mutations reduce the ability of PCSK9 to promote the degradation of LDLR and thus lower the plasma level of LDL-C and dyslipidemia.

While exposing the polygenic architecture of circulating lipids and the underpinnings of dyslipidaemia, these genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have provided further evidence of the critical role that lipids play in coronary heart disease (CHD) risk, as indicated by the 2.7-fold enrichment for macrophage gene expression in atherosclerotic plaques and the association of 25 loci (such as PCSK9, APOB, ABCG5-G8, KCNK5, LPL, HMGCR, NPC1L1, CETP, TRIB1, ABO, PMAIP1-MC4R, and LDLR) with CHD.

Whether PCSK9 mAbs decrease the rates of recurrent cardiovascular events within 3 months following ACS is questionable; however, these agents, unlike statins, may not have pleiotropic benefits on the unstable plaque.
