Core Tip Lepodisiran is a novel N-acetylgalactosamine-conjugated small interfering RNA that durably reduces lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] levels by silencing hepatic LPA message RNA expression. It offers up to 94% sustained Lp(a) reduction with minimal side effects and extended dosing intervals (6-12 months). This therapeutic breakthrough addresses a key residual cardiovascular risk factor previously untreatable with conventional lipid-lowering agents.
