PCSK9 Inhibitors (Evolocumab, Inclisiran)

Evidence: ★★★★★ · Status: FDA Approved

💡 Did you know? PCSK9-inhibitor cholesterol drugs came from studying rare people born with a gene mutation that gave them very low LDL and almost no heart disease.

In plain English

LDL receptors are the vacuum cleaners that remove bad cholesterol; PCSK9 destroys them. Block PCSK9 and the vacuums keep working — dropping LDL dramatically. Inclisiran is a gene-silencing shot given just twice a year.

How it works

Block PCSK9, the protein that degrades LDL receptors — so LDL receptors survive longer and clear far more LDL. Inclisiran is an siRNA silencing PCSK9, dosed twice yearly.

Molecular target & official sources
