Amarin says REDUCE-IT post hoc analysis shows Vascepa cuts events in highest-risk patients
  • Amarin highlighted new clinical findings on icosapent ethyl presented at ACC Scientific Sessions 2026, including a secondary post hoc analysis from REDUCE-IT.
  • The analysis found icosapent ethyl, added to statin therapy, reduced cardiovascular events versus placebo in patients at extreme or very high cardiovascular risk.
  • ACC 2026 discussions tied updated 2026 ACC/AHA/Multi-society dyslipidemia guidelines to ongoing residual cardiovascular risk despite LDL-C control, supporting complementary therapy use in patients with elevated triglycerides.
  • Amarin also pointed to prior studies linking EPA-based therapy to favorable coronary plaque changes, positioning icosapent ethyl as a differentiated option beyond triglyceride lowering alone.
