The Global CVCT Forum is an annual gathering of a diverse group of experts who come together to discuss clinical trials in cardiovascular medicine. Participants include researchers, clinicians, industry representatives, patients, regulatory authorities, and investors. The forum offers expert discussions and a unique program focusing on cutting-edge, evidence-based clinical trials in cardiovascular, cardiorenal and cardiometabolic medicine. It serves as an important platform for networking and collaboration in cardiovascular disease research.

Lipigon's CEO Stefan K. Nilsson will participate as a panelist in two sessions on November 30. In the second session, he will also introduce Lipigon and the company's innovative RNA drug, Lipisense^®: 

• Panel discussion on the topic "Clinical Trials Targeting Lipoprotein(a) and Inflammation for Atherosclerosis Therapy".
• Stefan K. Nilsson presents and participates in a panel discussion on the topic "Triglyceride Rich Lipoproteins Trials".

"Being invited to the CVCT Forum is not only a great honor but also a recognition of the important work we are doing at Lipigon. Our dedication and research into ANGPTL4, as well as the development of Lipisense^®, have generated tremendous interest within the medical community. Having the opportunity to share our research with some of the world's foremost experts, pharmaceutical companies, and investors within cardiovascular medicine is both flattering and confirms the interest in our work," says Stefan K. Nilsson, CEO of Lipigon.

Lipisense^® is an RNA drug developed to reduce triglyceride levels in patients with severely elevated levels by preventing the production of the ANGPTL4 protein. Recently, Lipigon presented significant data from the Phase I study, showing that Lipisense^® reduced the target protein ANGPTL4 in the blood upon repeated dosing in all treatment groups in the MAD (Multiple Ascending Doses) part of the Phase I study.
