Slide 3 - Classes of Recommendations & Levels of Evidence

The slide outlines four classes of recommendations: Class I (strong, benefit >>> risk), IIa (reasonable, benefit >> risk), IIb (may be considered, benefit ≥ risk), and III (not recommended, no benefit or harm). It also details three levels of evidence: A (high, multiple RCTs/meta-analyses), B (moderate, single RCT/large observational), and C (low, expert consensus).

Classes of Recommendations & Levels of Evidence

  • Class I: Strong Recommendation
  • Benefit >>> Risk (Is recommended)

  • Class IIa: Reasonable Option
  • Benefit >> Risk (Should be considered)

  • Class IIb: May Be Considered
  • Benefit ≥ Risk

  • Class III: Not Recommended
  • No benefit or harm

  • Level A: High Evidence
  • Multiple RCTs or meta-analysis

  • Level B: Moderate Evidence
  • Single RCT or large observational

  • Level C: Low Evidence

Slide 4 - Risk Stratification: SCORE2 & SCORE2-OP

SCORE2 estimates 10-year CVD risk for adults under 50 years, while SCORE2-OP targets older populations. These tools integrate dyslipidaemia assessment in primary prevention to guide lipid-lowering therapy intensity.

Risk Stratification: SCORE2 & SCORE2-OP

  • SCORE2: 10-year CVD risk for adults under 50 years.
  • SCORE2-OP: 10-year CVD risk for older populations.
  • Integrates dyslipidaemia assessment in primary prevention.
  • Guides intensity of lipid-lowering therapy.

Slide 5 - LDL-C Treatment Goals (Figure 1)

This slide presents LDL-C treatment goals stratified by cardiovascular risk levels. Very high-risk patients (ASCVD or equivalent) target <1.4 mmol/L, high-risk (SCORE2 ≥7.5%) <1.8 mmol/L, moderate-risk (SCORE2 5-7.4%) <2.6 mmol/L, and low-risk (<5%) <3.0 mmol/L.

LDL-C Treatment Goals (Figure 1)

  • <1.4 mmol/L: Very High-Risk Goal
  • ASCVD or equivalent

  • <1.8 mmol/L: High-Risk Goal
  • SCORE2 10-yr risk ≥7.5%

  • <2.6 mmol/L: Moderate-Risk Goal
  • SCORE2 5-7.4% risk

  • <3.0 mmol/L: Low-Risk Goal

Slide 7 - Pharmacologic Therapy Options

The slide presents pharmacologic therapy options for LDL-C reduction, starting with high-intensity statins as first-line (50-60% reduction). It includes add-on ezetimibe (10-20% further lowering), injectable PCSK9 inhibitors (50-60% additional reduction), and oral bempedoic acid for statin-intolerant patients (15-25% reduction).

Slide 8 - Lipid Management in ACS

In ACS, start high-intensity statin (e.g., atorvastatin 80 mg) on day 1, add ezetimibe 1-4 weeks later if LDL-C >1.8 mmol/L, and escalate to PCSK9i at 3 months if still elevated despite combination therapy. Maintain triple therapy ongoing every 6-12 months to achieve LDL-C ≤1.4 mmol/L, emphasizing lifestyle and adherence.

Source: 2025 ESC/EAS Dyslipidaemia Guidelines

Speaker Notes
Stepwise approach for very high-risk ACS patients: Initiate high-intensity statin on day 1 (Class I, LOE A). Add ezetimibe if LDL-C >1.8 mmol/L at 1-4 weeks. Escalate to PCSK9i if persistent elevation at 3 months. Goal: LDL-C ≤1.4 mmol/L (or ≥50% reduction from baseline if 1.4-1.8 mmol/L). Monitor q6-12 months.

Slide 9 - High Triglycerides & Lp(a)

For high triglycerides (>5 mmol/L), initiate fibrates (e.g., fenofibrate) or icosapent ethyl (4g/day) with lifestyle changes like low-carb diet and exercise, targeting <2.3 mmol/L while monitoring LFTs and myopathy. For elevated Lp(a) (>50 mg/dL), use Figure 3 for CVD risk assessment; if high-risk, consider emerging therapies like pelacarsen or olpasiran, plus statins for LDL-C.

High Triglycerides & Lp(a)

High Triglycerides (TG >5 mmol/L)Elevated Lp(a) (>50 mg/dL)
Initiate fibrates (e.g., fenofibrate) or prescription omega-3 (icosapent ethyl 4g/day) to reduce TG and CV risk. Combine with lifestyle: low-carb diet, exercise, alcohol moderation. Monitor LFTs, myopathy; target TG <2.3 mmol/L.Use Figure 3: Lp(a) risk chart for CVD risk assessment. If elevated + high risk (SCORE2), consider emerging therapies: pelacarsen (antisense), olpasiran (siRNA), or gene editors. Statins for concurrent LDL-C.

Slide 10 - Special Populations: HIV & Oncology

For HIV patients, statins are generally safe but simvastatin should be avoided with protease inhibitors, requiring close monitoring of drug interactions. In oncology, cardio-oncology management is essential, with lipid therapy restarted post-chemotherapy.

Special Populations: HIV & Oncology

  • HIV: Statins safe; avoid simvastatin + protease inhibitors
  • HIV: Monitor drug interactions closely
  • Oncology: Cardio-oncology management essential
  • Oncology: Restart lipids post-chemotherapy

Slide 11 - Follow-up Protocols

Follow-up protocols include assessing LDL-C, adherence, and side effects at 3-6 months, with labs timed 4-6 weeks post-therapy initiation. Therapy intensity should be adjusted per lipid response, and cardiovascular risk reassessed annually.

Follow-up Protocols

  • Assess LDL-C, adherence, side effects at 3-6 months
  • Adjust therapy intensity per lipid response
  • Reassess cardiovascular risk annually
  • Time labs 4-6 weeks post-therapy initiation
