“Despite the many safe, effective, and FDA-approved treatments available on the market with clinically proven reductions of CVD risk, patients are still being treated with fenofibrates off-label.

Key Points: 
  • “Despite the many safe, effective, and FDA-approved treatments available on the market with clinically proven reductions of CVD risk, patients are still being treated with fenofibrates off-label.
  • This results in patients taking a drug proven to have no clinical benefit to reduce CVD risk,” said Nabil Abadir, M.D., Chief Medical Officer at Amarin.
  • “This is a significant issue that is risking patient health and should be addressed quickly by the FDA.
  • The petition also urges the FDA Commissioner to further clarify the position the agency previously took by removing the statin co-administration from fenofibrate labeling.

Amarin Highlights Key Data Providing Mechanistic Insights into Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) at ACC.24

Retrieved on: 
Monday, April 8, 2024

These findings indicate that the net benefits of a high intensity statin and EPA, compared to statin alone, on expression of detoxification proteins during inflammation may contribute to reduced atherothrombotic risk in outcome trials.

Key Points: 
  • These findings indicate that the net benefits of a high intensity statin and EPA, compared to statin alone, on expression of detoxification proteins during inflammation may contribute to reduced atherothrombotic risk in outcome trials.
  • The beneficial effects of a high intensity statin and EPA on endothelial dysfunction may contribute to reduced atherothrombotic risk in outcome trials.
  • Elevated Lp(a) levels are an independent and causal risk factor for cardiovascular (CV) disease with limited treatments available.
  • The potent antioxidant actions of EPA may contribute to reduced CV events in REDUCE-IT, including among those subjects with elevated Lp(a).

New REDUCE-IT® Analyses Show VASCEPA®/VAZKEPA® (Icosapent Ethyl) Benefit in High-Risk Cardiovascular Disease Patient Subgroups

Retrieved on: 
Saturday, April 6, 2024

DUBLIN, Ireland and BRIDGEWATER, N.J., April 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Amarin Corporation plc (NASDAQ:AMRN) today highlighted two data presentations at ACC.24 describing the effects of VASCEPA®/VAZKEPA® (icosapent ethyl) on reducing MACE (Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events) in patients with baseline high or low Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] levels, as well as reducing the risk of cardiovascular (CV) events in patients irrespective of baseline LDL-C level. The REDUCE-IT analysis results relating Lp(a) concentrations with CV risk were also published online today in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology (JACC).

Key Points: 
  • There are no treatments currently approved to reduce residual CV risk on top of contemporary medical therapy in patients with high Lp(a) levels.
  • In this subanalysis, there were 7,026 REDUCE-IT patients with baseline Lp(a) data and a median Lp(a) value of 11.6 (Q1-Q3: 5.0-37.4) mg/dL.
  • Importantly, the treatment benefit of IPE was evident across subgroups with both high (≥50 mg/dL) and low (
  • Limitations are that randomization was not stratified by baseline LDL-C, however, baseline characteristics were similar among the two baseline LDL-C subgroups.

In addition, the Company recently achieved success defending a separate European VAZKEPA patent from third-party opposition within the EPO.

Key Points: 
  • In addition, the Company recently achieved success defending a separate European VAZKEPA patent from third-party opposition within the EPO.
  • Additional independent patent applications from this family remain pending, which when granted, will further reinforce VAZKEPA’s exclusivity in Europe until April 2039.
  • Additionally, in November 2023, Amarin successfully defended a separate patent containing claims covering VAZKEPA in Europe from third-party opposition.
  • At the conclusion of that opposition, the EPO found all claims for Amarin’s 2033 VAZKEPA patent to be valid.

  • 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.
