– Presentations Examine Findings From the Pediatric Phase 2 Study, As Well As Factors Associated With Enhanced LDL-C Reductions in Adult Patients Enrolled in Clear Outcomes – – Pediatric Phase 2 Study Demonstrated Bempedoic Acid Treatment Reduced LDL-C in Children with Heterozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia (HeFH) Congruent with Reductions in Adult Exposures – – New Analyses from CLEAR Outcomes Trial Identified Factors Associated With Enhanced LDL-C Reductions in Adult Patients – ANN ARBOR, Mich., May 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Esperion (NASDAQ: ESPR) today announced that two new abstracts and three encore abstracts have been accepted for presentation at the European Atherosclerosis Society (EAS) Congress 2026 taking place on May 24-27, 2026, in Athens, Greece. “We are pleased to present supportive new data to the global lipid community at EAS Congress 2026, as they highlight the breadth and durability of our bempedoic acid products to meaningfully lower LDL-C levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events,” said Sheldon Koenig, President and CEO of Esperion. “Results from our Phase 2 pediatric study demonstrate LDL C reductions in children with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia are consistent with those observed in adults, supporting the advancement of bempedoic acid into Phase 3 development for pediatric patients with HeFH and homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia. These findings represent an important step toward expanding treatment options for patients with lifelong cardiovascular risk. “In collaboration with our partner, Daiichi Sankyo Europe, we are also presenting a new analysis from the CLEAR Outcomes trial that identifies patient characteristics associated with achieving robust LDL C reductions of 30% or greater, providing additional insight into how bempedoic acid can be optimally utilized in clinical practice,” added Koenig.
