Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a genetic disorder characterized by high serum levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol (LDL-C), tendon and skin xanthomas, and premature coronary artery disease (CAD). In Japan, detailed information on the current status of drug therapies for patients with FH has not been reported so far, and their efficacy and safety have not been clarified. After the introduction of ezetimibe, which can further reduce serum LDL-C levels on top of statins, the changes of management for FH patients with these drugs are of particular interest. The current study aimed to evaluate the clinical status of FH heterozygotes and homozygotes, especially focusing on the real-world lipid-lowering drug therapy, attained serum LDL-C levels, and cardiovascular events at registration and during the follow-up.
