Central illustration. Based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria of the ORION-10 and ORION-11 trials, 5 million ASCVD patients and 2.7 million ASCVD-risk equivalent individuals were identified from a population of 261 million Americans. Among the ASCVD patients, 3.5 million (70.2%) could achieve LDL-C reductions of ≥ 50%, 4.6 million (91.3%) could reach LDL-C levels below 70 mg/dL, and 3.8 million (75%) could reach levels below 55 mg/dL with inclisiran treatment. In the ASCVD-risk equivalent population, inclisiran could potentially prevent 202,353 (7.6%) CVD events, including 138,084 (5.2%) CHD events, 37,351 (1.4%) strokes, and 23,894 (0.9%) CHF events over a 10-year period. Note Each small white man icon approximately represents 330,000 Americans. *ORION-11 criteria apply only to ASCVD-risk equivalent subjects. Abbreviations ASCVD, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease; CVD, cardiovascular disease; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; CHD, coronary heart disease; CHF, congestive heart failure
