The N‐Acetylgalactosamine‐conjugated small interfering RNA inclisiran can be coadministered safely with atorvastatin in cynomolgus monkeys resulting in additive low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol reductions
Abstract Inclisiran, a small interfering RNA, selectively inhibits proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) synthesis in the liver and has been shown to reduce low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL‐C) by ≥50% in patients with hypercholesterolemia receiving maximally tolerated statins...
