Summary
Coronary allograft vasculopathy (CAV) is diffusely accelerated atherosclerosis of a transplanted heart. Evolocumab (Repatha) is an FDA-approved drug for lowering low density lipoprotein (LDL) in patients who have not received a heart transplant. This drug works as a PCSK9-inhibitor. The primary objective of this study is to measure the impact of PCSK9-inhibitors on serum LDL in heart transplant patients with CAV after 12 weeks compared to baseline.
