Residual ASCVD risk may be present even after the optimization of LDL-C levels and increasing evidence has suggested that elevated Lp(a) is an emerging CVD risk factor that has been shown to be a causal CVD risk factor in epidemiological and genetic studies, as well as enhance CVD risk prediction in certain patients. As emerging CVD risk factors, including Lp(a), are increasingly recognized as a target for therapy in the prevention and treatment of ASCVD, clinicians should be aware of the therapeutic advances in this field.

Effectively managing high cholesterol level and safely lowering LDL-C is crucial for preventing and reducing the risk of adverse cardiovascular events. However, achieving LDL-C goals remains suboptimal, particularly in high-risk and very high-risk patients. The landscape of lipid lowering therapy has significantly evolved, with new consensus statements, newer agents, and important evidence that may help address some current gaps.
