Recent lipid lowering therapy trials have provided important insights on certain agents while also continuing to expand our understanding of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk. Findings from current trials include the impact of statin therapy on ASCVD among populations with HIV, the benefit of lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol with bempedoic acid among patients considered statin intolerant, the safety and efficacy of inclisiran over a 4-year period, another failed attempt for fibrates to reduce ASCVD risk, which omega-3 fatty to utilize for lowering cardiovascular events, 'n-of-1' trials evaluating statin intolerance, and how low-dose rosuvastatin compared with commonly utilized supplements for lowering lipid parameters. Such data help inform so clinicians can optimize lipid lowering therapy and improve ASCVD outcomes.
