Acute Coronary Syndrome – Current Treatment – Treatment Algorithms: Claims Data Analysis – Acute Coronary Syndrome: Secondary Prevention (US)
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS)—a subtype of coronary artery disease—is an umbrella term encompassing ST-elevation myocardial infarction, non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction, and unstable angina. This report focuses on the posthospital, secondary prevention of ACS, aimed at preventing recurrent CV events and adverse cardiac remodeling and prolonging the patient’s survival. The current ACS secondary prevention market is dominated by generic therapies. Branded options include PCSK9 inhibitors (Amgen’s Repatha [evolocumab], Sanofi / Regeneron’s Praluent [alirocumab]); antiplatelets (AstraZeneca’s Brilinta [ticagrelor]); ACL inhibitors (Esperion’s Nexletol / Nexlizet [bempedoic acid]); anti-inflammatory agents (Agepha Pharma’s Lodoco [colchicine]); and prescription omega-3 fatty acids (Amarin’s Vascepa [icosapent ethyl]. In this report, we analyze the secondary prevention of ACS in the United States and provide insight into the factors driving the current treatment of newly diagnosed and recently treated patients.
