Treatment With Bempedoic Acid And/Or Its Fixed-dose Combination With Ezetimibe in Routine Clinical Practice in Patients With Primary Hypercholesterolemia Or Mixed Dyslipidemia

Daiichi Sankyo Europe, GmbH, a Daiichi Sankyo Company

Overview

Cardiovascular disease (CVD), especially its management and associated costs, remains a major concern globally. There is a direct correlation between circulating levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and the incidence of CVD. This study will assess bempedoic acid/FDC in a real-world clinical setting in adult patients in Spain with hypercholesterolaemia or mixed dyslipidemia.

This non-interventional study will be conducted in order to further understand the potential risks and benefits of bempedoic acid/fixed dose combination (FDC) with ezetimibe in a real-world clinical setting in adult patients with primary hypercholesterolaemia (heterozygous familial and non-familial) or mixed dyslipidaemia and to gain insight into the effectiveness (managing plasma levels of LDL-C) as well as safety (clinical events associated with the treatment modalities). No study medication will be provided as part of this protocol to the patients. Medications will be as prescribed by the treating physician in line with clinical practice.
