Clinical Outcomes of an ApoE Genotype-Guided Lipid-Lowering Strategy in Acute Coronary Syndrome Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention. (PubMed, Pharmgenomics Pers Med) - Sep 13, 2026 - "The control group (n=120) received standard atorvastatin therapy. An ApoE genotype-guided lipid-lowering escalation strategy, in which E4 carriers-who typically respond suboptimally to statin monotherapy and carry a higher residual risk-received add-on PCSK9-inhibitor (evolocumab) therapy, was associated with improved clinical efficacy, cardiac function, and lipid control in ACS patients after PCI. Because the study group received more intensive lipid-lowering therapy, the observed benefits most plausibly reflect the greater treatment intensity achieved through genotype-directed escalation rather than the act of genotyping alone, and require confirmation in prospective randomized trials with longer follow-up."
