– Patients Prescribed Bempedoic Acid, As Well As Bempedoic Acid and Ezetimibe, With or Without Other Lipid Lowering Therapies, Showed A One-Third Relative Reduction in Low-Density LDL-C From Pre-Treatment To 2-Years in the MILOS Study –
– Real-World Results Demonstrated ~7-Fold Increase in Proportion of Patients Achieving LDL-C Goals When Treated With Bempedoic Acid or Bempedoic Acid and Ezetimibe –
– Data From the MILOS German Cohort Showed Bempedoic Acid, Alone or With Ezetimibe, Was Effective and Had A Safety Profile in Real-World Settings Consistent With the CLEAR Outcomes Study –
ANN ARBOR, Mich., Oct. 02, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Esperion (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ESPR#NASDAQ">ESPR</a>) today announced that its European partner, Daiichi Sankyo Europe (DSE), reported final 2-year follow-up data from the German cohort of the multinational, European observational MILOS study. The European study evaluated the real-world use of bempedoic acid, marketed as NILEMDO&#xAE;&nbsp;in the EU and bempedoic acid and ezetimibe, marketed as NUSTENDI&#xAE; in the EU, in patients with primary hypercholesterolemia or mixed dyslipidemia. The products are marketed as NEXLETOL&#xAE; (bempedoic acid) and NEXLIZET&#xAE;&nbsp;(bempedoic acid and ezetimibe) in the U.S.
The results, presented in Hamburg, Germany at DGK Herztage 2024, demonstrated the effectiveness and safety profile of bempedoic acid, both alone and in combination with other lipid-lowering therapies (LLTs) in clinical practice. Raised LDL-C is a key modifiable contributor to risk of major cardiovascular events, with studies showing that every 1 mmol/L reduction in LDL-C is associated with a 22% reduction in major cardiovascular events after one year.
The German cohort of the MILOS study comprising 973 patients from 125 sites in Germany, is one of the most comprehensive assessments of bempedoic acid in a real-world clinical setting to-date in Germany.&nbsp;Patients were followed-up for two years, with LDL-C levels assessed at pre-treatment, one year (1Y) and two years (2Y). Overall, 638 of 973 patients (65.6%) completed 2Y follow up, with LDL-C values at pre-treatment, 1Y and 2Y available for 451 patients. In these 451 patients, a mean reduction of LDL-C levels from 3.1 mmol/L (121.4 mg/dL) at pre-treatment, to 2.0 mmol/L (77.2 mg/dL) was observed, representing an average relative reduction of 30.3% in the overall population.
Additionally, the percentage of patients reaching their LDL-C goals increased from 4.9% at pre-treatment to 35.3% at the 2Y follow-up – an approximately 7-fold increase.&nbsp;The proportions of high-risk and very high-risk patients reaching LDL-C goals increased from 5.6% to 32.5%, and 3.6% to 35.2%, respectively.
Overall, more than 80% of patients received bempedoic acid in combination with other LLTs at pre-treatment and 2Y, including statins and ezetimibe. The safety profile of bempedoic acid in this real-world population was assessed at 1Y and 2Y and was consistent with that observed in the CLEAR clinical trial program.&nbsp;

Esperion's Clinical and Financial Advancements Solidify Buy Rating

The biotech industry offers a compelling investment opportunity due to its potential for disruptive innovations and high growth. Thus, investing in fundamentally strong small-cap stocks Esperion Therapeutics (ESPR), Innoviva, Inc. (INVA), and SIGA Technologies (SIGA) could be significantly rewarding. Read on… The biotech industry plays a crucial role in advancing healthcare through innovative therapies, genetic research, and drug development. The sector is driven by the demand for therapeutic treatments and genetic disorders cures, which is gaining momentum in the market.
Amid this, it could be wise to invest in fundamentally sound small-cap biotech stocks, Esperion Therapeutics, Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/ESPR/">ESPR</a>), Innoviva, Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/INVA/">INVA</a>), and SIGA Technologies, Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/SIGA/">SIGA</a>), with game-changing potential.
The biotech sector is witnessing heightened activity with firms working on breakthrough technologies. For instance, the broader biopharma sector had a strong second quarter, <a href="https://www.bioworld.com/articles/710642-despite-q2-drop-2024-h1-biopharma-financings-near-full-year-2023?v=preview">raising $22.94 billion</a>, and its half-year 2024 results were almost equal to the full-year 2023 results of $70 million.
Further, factors like increased funding and M&amp;A activities in Q2 are also the reason for such a favorable outlook for this sector. This year, there were <a href="https://investingnews.com/biotech-forecast/">28 merger and acquisition deals</a> where large pharma companies are investing in the research and development of small-cap companies.
According to <a href="https://www.precedenceresearch.com/biotechnology-market">Precedence research</a>, the global biotechnology market is anticipated to reach a value of $4.61 trillion by 2034, exhibiting a CAGR of 11.5%. This growth promises growth and explosive returns, driving market buzz and investment interest.
