Abstract

© 2019 National Lipid Association PCSK9 inhibitors are potent low-density lipoprotein cholesterol–lowering medications. There is a lack of data regarding safety and efficacy of PCSK9 inhibitors in cardiac transplant patients. In this case series, we provide data supporting the low-density lipoprotein–lowering efficacy and short-term safety of PCSK9 inhibitors in three cardiac transplant patients.
