Résumé

The 2019 European Society of Cardiology/European Atherosclerosis Society Guidelines concluded that apolipoprotein B (apoB) was a more accurate measure of cardiovascular risk and a better guide to the adequacy of lipid lowering than low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) or non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). Also, they stated that apoB can be measured more accurately than LDL-C or non-HDL-C. This strong endorsement of the central role of apoB contrasts with the limited endorsement of apoB by the 2018 American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association Multisociety Guidelines. Nevertheless, both retained LDL-C as the primary metric to guide statin/ezetimibe/Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) therapy. This essay will review the most important recent advances in knowledge about apoB with particular emphasis on the results of Mendelian randomization studies and a new discordance analysis in subjects on statin therapy. We will also lay out why using LDL-C to guide the adequacy of lipid lowering therapy represents an interpretive error of the results of the statin/ezetimibe/PCSK9 inhibitor randomized clinical trials and therefore why apoB should be the primary metric to guide statin/ezetimibe/PCSK9 therapy. There is now a robust body of evidence demonstrating the superiority of apoB over LDL-C and non-HDL-C as a clinical marker of cardiovascular risk. LDL-C is not the appropriate marker to assess the benefits of statin/ezetimibe/PCSK9 therapy.
