A new post hoc sub-analysis of the landmark REDUCE-IT Study, published in the Journal of the American Heart Association (JAHA), found VASCEPA® significantly reduced the risk of cardiovascular death, strokes, heart attacks, coronary revascularization, and unstable angina by 34% in patients with a history of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).(1)
Icosapent ethyl resulted in robust absolute risk reductions of 8.5% and 5.4% and numbers needed to treat (NNT) of 12 and 19, respectively, for the primary and key secondary composite endpoints.
