    Review, Journal:  "Anti-inflammatory Therapies in Atherosclerosis - Where are we going?". (Pubmed Central) -  Dec 19, 2024   
    Colchicine is by far the only one that has the potential to be widely used due to its cost-effectiveness. Further research is needed on other novel anti-inflammation therapies and their real-world implementation.

    In addition, ziltivekimab has shown efficacy in improving anemia parameters, including hemoglobin levels and iron studies. Ziltivekimab deserves full scale clinical development, and to this aim, large-scale clinical trials are under way.

    Review, Journal:  Recent Advances in Targeted Management of Inflammation In Atherosclerosis: A Narrative Review. (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 20, 2024   
    Evidence suggests that high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), and potentially other inflammatory biomarkers, can be used to identify the inflammatory residual ASCVD risk phenotype and may serve as future targets for the development of more efficacious therapeutic approaches. We review the biological basis for the association of inflammation with ASCVD, propose new therapeutic strategies for the use of inflammation-targeted treatments, and discuss current challenges in the implementation of this new treatment paradigm for ASCVD.

    Journal:  C-reactive protein, pharmacological treatments and diet: how to target your inflammatory burden. (Pubmed Central) -  Jan 26, 2024   
    Whilst advances in the field of specific anti-inflammatory treatments have been made over the last years, their broad implementation is currently limited. Therefore, optimization of diet (and other lifestyle factors) could provide a cost effective and side-effect free intervention to target low-grade vascular inflammation.

    The effect of ziltivekimab on the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio: analysis from RESCUE (Research Gateway 4) -  Jun 15, 2022 - Abstract #ESC2022ESC_4178;    
    The ongoing ZEUS cardiovascular (CV) outcomes trial will assess whether ziltivekimab can reduce CV event rates among individuals with stage 3 to 4 CKD, known atherosclerotic disease, and elevated hsCRP. If ziltivekimab reduces CV risk, it would provide further evidence for critical inter-relationships between bone marrow function and atherothrombosis.

    Biomarker, Clinical, P1 data, Clinical Trial,Phase I, Journal:  A Phase 1 Randomized Dose-Escalation Study of a Human Monoclonal Antibody to IL-6 in CKD. (Pubmed Central) -  Apr 8, 2022   
    The mean t ranged from of 45 to 65 days. In adults with moderate-to-severe CKD and evidence of chronic inflammation, a single-injection of the IL-6 inhibitor ziltivekimab was safe and highly effective at suppressing hsCRP over 12 weeks.

    Journal:  Interleukin-6 Signaling and Anti-Interleukin-6 Therapeutics in Cardiovascular Disease. (Pubmed Central) -  Jan 7, 2022   
    In this review, we provide an overview of the mechanisms by which IL-6 signaling occurs and how that impacts upon pharmacologic inhibition; describe murine models of IL-6 and atherogenesis; summarize human epidemiologic data outlining the utility of IL-6 as a biomarker of vascular risk; outline genetic data suggesting a causal role for IL-6 in systemic atherothrombosis and aneurysm formation; and then detail the potential role of IL-6 inhibition in stable coronary disease, acute coronary syndromes, heart failure, and the atherothrombotic complications associated with chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal failure. Finally, we review anti-inflammatory and anti-thrombotic findings for ziltivekimab, a novel IL-6 ligand inhibitor being developed specifically for use in atherosclerotic disease and poised to be tested formally in a large scale cardiovascular outcomes trial focused on individuals with chronic kidney disease and elevated levels of C-reactive protein, a population at high residual atherothrombotic risk, high residual inflammatory risk, and considerable unmet clinical need.

    Review, Journal:  The role and transformative potential of IL-19 in atherosclerosis. (Pubmed Central) -  Dec 16, 2021   
    Several other drugs have also been investigated in clinical trials as anti-inflammatory agents; the development of some of these agents has been terminated (canakinumab, darapladib, varespladib, losmapimod, atreleuton, setileuton, PF-04191834, veliflapon, and methotrexate), but others remain in development (ziltivekimab, tocilizumab, Somalix, IFM-2427, anakinra, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), colchicine, everolimus, allopurinol, and montelukast)...We propose that IL-19 is a promising biomarker and target for the diagnosis and treatment of atherosclerosis. This review considers the role and mechanism of action of IL-19 in atherosclerosis and discusses whether IL-19 is a potential therapeutic target for this condition.

    Journal:  Anti-inflammatory therapy in ischaemic heart disease: from canakinumab to colchicine. (Pubmed Central) -  Oct 20, 2021   
    In summary, canakinumab and colchicine have shown efficacy in preventing MACE in ischaemic heart disease patients, but only colchicine has acceptable safety (and cost) for use in secondary cardiovascular prevention. Clinical results are expected with the anti-IL6 ziltivekimab.
