This program will focus on the evidence with, and use of, non-statin therapies for LDL-C lowering in the settings of primary and secondary prevention. An interpretation of recently presented and published secondary analyses from cardiovascular outcome trials with non-statin agents will provide lipid specialists with a more comprehensive evaluation of the efficacy and safety of non-statin therapy in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Attendees will also receive an expert assessment of non-statin therapy for primary prevention. Four interactive challenging cases for lipid specialists with "real-world" patients will enable faculty members to describe best management strategies.

In support of improving patient care, this activity has been planned and implemented by The National Lipid Association and Voxmedia LLC. The National Lipid Association is jointly accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME), the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE), and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), to provide continuing education for the healthcare team.

This activity is supported by an educational donation provided by Amgen.
