    In addition, a recent trial of icosapent ethyl, a highly purified ethyl ester of eicosapentaenoic acid, addresses residual risk in patients with elevated triglycerides already treated with statins. The use of both sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists in patients with type 2 diabetes reduces cardiovascular events independently of glucose lowering.

    High-dose icosapent ethyl is another worthwhile add-on treatment, especially in statin-treated patients with diabetes in whom triglyceride levels remain elevated...Several existing and newer drug treatments reduce ASCVD risk through LDL cholesterol and/or triglyceride reduction in patients with diabetes. Novel approaches using antisense oligonucleotides and monoclonal antibodies may provide potential future therapies for diabetic dyslipidemia.

    The insights gained in this study may be useful for quick approach against COVID-19 in the future. At present, the best available evidence for a role of omega-3 fatty acids in ASCVD risk reduction is for 4 g/day of IPE, as an adjunct to statin therapy, for patients with ASCVD or diabetes mellitus and elevated triglycerides.

    As therapies for ASCVD prevention continue to emerge, clinicians will need to identify the appropriate treatment for individuals based on their estimated risk and risk-enhancing factors. When statin therapy is either not sufficient or patients do not tolerate adequate statin therapy, relying on newer therapies, such as PCSK9-inhibitors, inclisiran, bempedoic acid and icosapent ethyl, will be critical to maximize risk factor profiles to reduce adverse outcomes.

    Journal, HEOR:  The cost-effectiveness of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids - The Australian healthcare perspective. (Pubmed Central) -  Sep 21, 2020   
    Patients with established CVD in whom level of triglycerides is high would benefit from the treatment using icosapent ethyl, however, it is not a cost-effective from an Australian healthcare system perspective. The government may consider subsidising this medication given the clinical need but at a discounted acquisition cost.

    Review, Journal:  Catch of the Day: Icosapent Ethyl for Reducing Cardiovascular Risk. (Pubmed Central) -  Sep 18, 2020   
    Based on the REDUCE-IT trial, the FDA granted IPE an indication for ASCVD risk reduction, making it the first O3FA product to receive such an indication. IPE is a cost-effective approach to reducing residual cardiovascular risk in statin-treated, high risk patients.

    Review, Journal:  Targeting Hypertriglyceridemia to Mitigate Cardiovascular Risk: A Review. (Pubmed Central) -  Sep 18, 2020   
    The REDUCE-IT trial demonstrated that addition of purified prescription eicosapentaenoic acid (icosapent ethyl) 4 g/day in high-risk patients with triglyceride levels 135-499 mg/dL and optimized statin treatment significantly reduced cardiovascular events versus placebo (hazard ratio 0.75; 95% confidence interval 0.68-0.83; P<0.001). Benefit was seen regardless of baseline and on-treatment triglyceride levels, suggesting that other effects of eicosapentaenoic acid besides triglyceride reduction may have played a role.
