Summary
Brief summary
AMR101 (icosapent ethyl [ethyl-EPA]) is a highly purified ethyl ester of eicosapentaenoic
acid (EPA) developed by Amarin Pharma Inc. for the treatment of cardiovascular disease in
statin-treated patients with hypertriglyceridemia. The purpose of this study was to evaluate
whether this drug, combined with a statin therapy, will be superior to the statin therapy
alone, when used as a prevention in reducing long-term cardiovascular events in high-risk
patients with mixed dyslipidemia.
