Abstract Introduction This study characterizes patients receiving evolocumab in clinical practice and assesses treatment effectiveness, safety and persistence outcomes across five countries. Methods This retrospective and prospective observational study enrolled patients initiated on evolocumab during August 2017 to July 2019 at 49 sites across Canada, Mexico, Colombia, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. Medical records data were extracted within 6 months prior to (baseline) and every 3 months for 12 months post evolocumab initiation and reported as available. Results A total of 578 patients were enrolled (40.1% female, median age 60 [interquartile range (IQR) 51–68] years); 83.7% had atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and/or familial hypercholesterolemia. Median low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) at baseline was 3.4 (IQR 2.7–4.2) mmol/L (131.5 [IQR 104.4–162.4] mg/dL), with 75.6% of patients receiving a statin (59.2% high intensity). Compared to baseline, the median lowest LDL-C was reduced by 70.2% and remained stable over 12 months of treatment. Guideline-recommended LDL-C thresholds
