ANGPTL3 is a compelling target, for a few reasons 1. It's backed by a natural experiment: people with loss-of-function variants have lower LDL cholesterol and lower cardiovascular risk – with no clear negative effects 2. Its inhibition lowers not only LDL-C, but also
In a phase 1 trial, single-dose CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing targeting ANGPTL3 led to reductions in ANGPTL3 protein levels, with few adverse events. Full trial results: https://t.co/cb6T1UDD2g
