Amarin Corporation plc presented new data from the REDUCE-IT trial at the EAS Congress 2026, suggesting risk-weighted apolipoprotein B (RW-apoB) as a method for identifying cardiovascular disease. The trial, which involved 8,179 patients, showed that icosapent ethyl reduced LDL-C levels and cardiovascular risk. RW-apoB levels were found to be 30% higher in CVD patients compared to measured apoB levels. The company also recommended high doses of icosapent ethyl for very high-risk CVD patients. AMRN shares closed at $14.52, up 1.54%.
