Elevated lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] levels is an established independent and causal risk factor for cardiovascular disease. High Lp(a) levels are prevalent and present in approximately 20% of the population. Universal screening of Lp(a) is recommended for all adults. This program will provide an overview of Lp(a) and associated risk for cardiovascular disease. The focus of the program will be on exploring how Lp(a) levels can be utilized in cardiovascular risk assessment and be used to inform treatment strategies. This program will also provide updates on the novel Lp(a)-lowering therapies in development.

1. Describe the association of Lp(a) with risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease
2. Identify patients for Lp(a) screening
3. Apply Lp(a) results towards cardiovascular risk assessment
4. Provide current treatment strategies for patients with high Lp(a)
5. Review upcoming novel Lp(a)-lowering therapies in development
