BACKGROUND: Low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) is an independent risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) progression. Although lipid lowering therapies remain the cornerstone of secondary ACSVD prevention, there exists residual dyslipidemia. The current study aimed to evaluate the real-world experience related to the treatment patterns and LDL-C control in Indian Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) patients.
METHODS: This was a real-world, descriptive, retrospective, observational, and multicentric study conducted across India. The data was collected for 1 year following the ACS event. The change in the levels of LDL-C from the baseline to the follow-up visits and the control of LDL-C, the change in lipid profile, lipoprotein levels, treatment patterns for lipid-lowering, and tolerability of existing treatments were evaluated.
RESULTS: Overall, 575 patients were included from 11 centers across India. The mean age of the patients was 52.92 years, with male predominance (76.35%). Although there was a significant reduction in the mean levels of LDL-C from the baseline [(122.64 ± 42.01 mg/dl to 74.41 ± 26.45 mg/dl (p < 0.001)], it was observed that despite high-intensity statin therapy, only 20.87% patients managed to achieve target LDL-C of <55 mg/dL and 55.65% were unable to reach LDL-C levels of <70 mg/dl one year after the event. Six patients reported adverse events without treatment discontinuation.
CONCLUSION: The majority of the patients received high-intensity statins and did not attain target LDL-C levels, suggesting LDL-C control after an ACS event requires management with novel therapies having better efficacy as recommended by international and national guidelines.
