Esperion Therapeutics presented new data at the 2026 European Atherosclerosis Society Congress showing bempedoic acid effectively lowers LDL cholesterol in children aged 6-17 with familial hypercholesterolemia and is well tolerated. A secondary analysis from the CLEAR Outcomes study also identified factors like female sex, higher baseline LDL-C, and ezetimibe use that enhance LDL-C reduction in statin-intolerant adults. These findings support bempedoic acid as a safe adjunct or alternative to statins, with ongoing Phase 3 pediatric trials planned. The data reinforce the role of Esperion’s products NEXLETOL and NEXLIZET in managing cholesterol and reducing cardiovascular risk.
