In the interventional cardiology setting, what percentage of your patients do not achieve the ESC Lipid Guideline goal of 70 mg/dL and, therefore, are suitable candidates for PCSK9 inhibition? Can you discuss your patient selection process?

From an IC perspective, in a patient who is post-PCI/post-stent insertion for ACS, when is the aggregated risk of the patient sufficiently alarming for you to consider intensive lowering of LDL-C to a level <50 mg/dL with a PCSK9 inhibitor?

If someone is more than 12 months out after an ACS event and currently has a stent, would you still consider them to be eligible for PCSK9 therapy to lower LDL-C and residual CV risk?
