ABSTRACT

Aims:

Limited data exist on low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) level variability or long-term persistence with the monoclonal antibody evolocumab in routine clinical practice. HEYMANS (NCT02770131) is the first multi-country, multicenter, observational study of European patients initiating evolocumab as part of their routine clinical management, based on local reimbursement criteria (overall data recently published). The aim of this analysis is to describe clinical characteristics, baseline and changes in LDL-C levels, treatment patterns and persistence to evolocumab over 30 months in the Spanish cohort using data from the HEYMANS Registry.

Methods:

HEYMANS was a prospective study of adult patients (≥18 years) who received at least one dose of evolocumab. A total of 1951 patients were enrolled from 12 countries and were followed up for 30 months after evolocumab initiation. Data were collected for 6 months before evolocumab initiation and up to 30 months thereafter. The Spanish cohort included patients who started evolocumab in routine clinical practice from March 2016 to September 2019. Demographic and clinical characteristics, lipid-lowering therapies (LLT), and lipid levels were collected. (AU)
RESUMEN

Objetivos:

Existen datos limitados sobre la variabilidad del nivel de colesterol de lipoproteínas de baja densidad (cLDL) o la persistencia a largo plazo con el anticuerpo monoclonal evolocumab en la práctica clínica habitual. HEYMANS (NCT02770131) es el primer estudio observacional multicéntrico y multinacional de pacientes europeos que iniciaron tratamiento con evolocumab en la práctica clínica habitual, basado en criterios de reembolso locales. El objetivo fue evaluar las características clínicas, los cambios en los niveles de cLDL, los patrones de tratamiento y la persistencia a este con evolocumab en la cohorte española con un seguimiento de 30 meses, utilizando datos del registro HEYMANS.

Métodos:

HEYMANS fue un estudio prospectivo de pacientes adultos (≥18 años) que recibieron al menos una dosis de evolocumab prescrita. Se incluyeron 1.951 sujetos de 12 países. Los datos fueron recopilados desde los seis meses previos al inicio del tratamiento hasta los 30 meses posteriores. La cohorte española incluyó pacientes que comenzaron evolocumab en la práctica clínica habitual desde marzo del 2016 hasta septiembre del 2019. Se recogieron las características demográficas y clínicas, los tratamientos hipolipemiantes (LLT) y el perfil lipídico. (AU)
