About REDUCE-IT®REDUCE-IT was a global cardiovascular outcomes study designed to evaluate the effect of VASCEPA in adult patients with LDL-C controlled to between 41-100 mg/dL (median baseline 75 mg/dL) by statin therapy and various cardiovascular risk factors including persistent elevated triglycerides between 135-499 mg/dL (median baseline 216 mg/dL) and either established cardiovascular disease (secondary prevention cohort) or diabetes mellitus and at least one other cardiovascular risk factor (primary prevention cohort). REDUCE-IT, conducted over seven years and completed in 2018, followed 8,179 patients at over 400 clinical sites in 11 countries with the largest number of sites located within the United States. REDUCE-IT was conducted based on a special protocol assessment agreement with FDA. The design of the REDUCE-IT study was published in March 2017 in Clinical Cardiology.i The primary results of REDUCE-IT were published in The New England Journal of Medicine in November 2018ii. The total events results of REDUCE-IT were published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology in March 2019.iii These and other publications can be found in the R&D section on the company’s website at www.amarincorp.com. About Cardiovascular RiskCardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death in the world. In the United States alone, cardiovascular disease results in 859,000 deaths per year.iv And the number of deaths in the United States attributed to cardiovascular disease continues to rise. In addition, in the United States there are 605,000 new and 200,000 recurrent heart attacks per year (approximately 1 every 40 seconds). Stroke rates are 795,000 per year (approximately 1 every 40 seconds), accounting for 1 of every 19 U.S. deaths. In aggregate, in the United States alone, there are more than 2.4 million major adverse cardiovascular events per year from cardiovascular disease or, on average, 1 every 13 seconds. Controlling bad cholesterol, also known as LDL-C, is one way to reduce a patient’s risk for cardiovascular events, such as heart attack, stroke or death. However, even with the achievement of target LDL-C levels, millions of patients still have significant and persistent risk of cardiovascular events, especially those patients with elevated triglycerides. Statin therapy has been shown to control LDL-C, thereby reducing the risk of cardiovascular events by 25-35%.v Significant cardiovascular risk remains after statin therapy. People with elevated triglycerides have 35% more cardiovascular events compared to people with normal (in range) triglycerides taking statins.vi,vii,viii About VASCEPA®/VAZKEPA® (icosapent ethyl) Capsules VASCEPA capsules are the first prescription treatment approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) comprised solely of the active ingredient, icosapent ethyl (IPE), a unique form of eicosapentaenoic acid. VASCEPA was launched in the United States in January 2020 as the first drug approved by the U.S. FDA for treatment of the studied high-risk patients with persistent cardiovascular risk despite being on statin therapy. VASCEPA was initially launched in the United States in 2013 based on the drug’s initial FDA approved indication for use as an adjunct therapy to diet to reduce triglyceride levels in adult patients with severe (≥500 mg/dL) hypertriglyceridemia. Since launch, VASCEPA has been prescribed more than twenty-five million times. VASCEPA is covered by most major medical insurance plans. In addition to the United States, VASCEPA is approved and sold in Canada, China, Australia, Lebanon, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, and Kuwait. In Europe, in March 2021 marketing authorization was granted to icosapent ethyl in the European Union for the reduction of risk of cardiovascular events in patients at high cardiovascular risk, under the brand name VAZKEPA. In April 2021 marketing authorization for VAZKEPA was granted in Great Britain (applying to England, Scotland and Wales). VAZKEPA is currently approved and sold in Europe in Sweden, Finland, England/Wales, Spain, Netherlands, Scotland, Greece, Portugal, Italy, Denmark and Austria. United States Indications and Limitation of Use VASCEPA is indicated: As an adjunct to maximally tolerated statin therapy to reduce the risk of myocardial infarction, stroke, coronary revascularization and unstable angina requiring hospitalization in adult patients with elevated triglyceride (TG) levels (≥ 150 mg/dL) and established cardiovascular disease or diabetes mellitus and two or more additional risk factors for cardiovascular disease.As an adjunct to diet to reduce TG levels in adult patients with severe (≥ 500 mg/dL) hypertriglyceridemia. The effect of VASCEPA on the risk for pancreatitis in patients with severe hypertriglyceridemia has not been determined. Important Safety Information VASCEPA is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity (e.g., anaphylactic reaction) to VASCEPA or any of its components. VASCEPA was associated with an increased risk (3% vs 2%) of atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter requiring hospitalization in a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. The incidence of atrial fibrillation was greater in patients with a previous history of atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter.It is not known whether patients with allergies to fish and/or shellfish are at an increased risk of an allergic reaction to VASCEPA. Patients with such allergies should discontinue VASCEPA if any reactions occur.VASCEPA was associated with an increased risk (12% vs 10%) of bleeding in a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. The incidence of bleeding was greater in patients receiving concomitant antithrombotic medications, such as aspirin, clopidogrel or warfarin.Common adverse reactions in the cardiovascular outcomes trial (incidence ≥3% and ≥1% more frequent than placebo): musculoskeletal pain (4% vs 3%), peripheral edema (7% vs 5%), constipation (5% vs 4%), gout (4% vs 3%), and atrial fibrillation (5% vs 4%).Common adverse reactions in the hypertriglyceridemia trials (incidence >1% more frequent than placebo): arthralgia (2% vs 1%) and oropharyngeal pain (1% vs 0.3%).Adverse events may be reported by calling 1-855-VASCEPA or the FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.Patients receiving VASCEPA and concomitant anticoagulants and/or anti-platelet agents should be monitored for bleeding.

Heartflow Builds Evidence Base Across the Heart Disease Care Continuum, From Precision Risk Stratification to CT-Guided Intervention Planning
Heartflow PCI Navigator is the only integrated, AI-driven PCI planning tool that gives interventional cardiologists a patient-specific 3D model detailing anatomy, plaque composition, and lesion-specific physiology, all aligned to optimize potential stent placement.
Three presentations at ACC reinforce Heartflow’s AI-powered technology predicts MACE, drives superior lipid outcomes and results in cost-effective care First patient enrolled in pioneering NAVIGATE-PCI Registry assessing impact of Heartflow PCI Navigator on clinical strategy, efficiency and physician confidence across 5,000 patients MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., March 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Heartflow, Inc. (Heartflow) (Nasdaq: HTFL), the leader in AI technology for coronary artery disease (CAD), today announced new clinical evidence and a landmark registry launch that together advance the company’s vision of transforming CAD management across every stage of the patient journey. At the American College of Cardiology (ACC) Annual Scientific Session, Heartflow is presenting new clinical evidence that further establishes AI-powered Heartflow Plaque Analysis as the leading tool for identifying high-risk patients earlier and guiding more effective medical management. Simultaneously, Heartflow has enrolled the first patient in the NAVIGATE-PCI Registry, the first large-scale effort to evaluate the real-world impact of CT-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) planning on clinical strategy, procedural efficiency and physician confidence. The registry is evaluating how often treatment plans change when physicians use the AI-driven insights provided by Heartflow PCI Navigator compared to angiography alone. “These milestones reflect tremendous progress toward Heartflow’s goal of transforming coronary artery disease from the world’s leading cause of death into a condition that can be detected early, diagnosed accurately, and managed for life,” said Campbell Rogers, M.D., F.A.C.C., Chief Medical Officer at Heartflow. “The Heartflow Plaque Analysis data presented at ACC and the launch of the NAVIGATE-PCI Registry represent important steps in building the rigorous real-world evidence needed to support AI-driven decision-making across the full continuum of cardiovascular care. From identifying high-risk patients earlier and improving how they are managed to generating the evidence needed to guide more precise interventions when required, Heartflow is giving physicians deeper insights and greater confidence so they can deliver better outcomes for patients.” Heartflow Plaque Analysis: New Clinical Evidence for Earlier Risk Stratification and Management Heartflow Plaque Analysis will be featured in three ACC 2026 presentations, covering long-term validation of risk stratification, real-world comparative effectiveness in lipid management, and economic sustainability. Collectively, these data reinforce Plaque Analysis as a personalized, clinically actionable and cost-effective solution for CAD management. AI-Based Coronary Plaque Analysis and Adverse Cardiovascular Events: The Mass General Brigham CCTA Registry (Poster 1082-09, March 29, 10:06 a.m. CDT)This cohort, based on a large-scale registry tracking over 15,000 patients, with up to 16 years of follow-up, demonstrated that Plaque Analysis is a powerful predictor of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), even after accounting for traditional risk factors and the severity of coronary stenosis. The findings reveal that patients with extensive plaque volume face a fourfold higher risk of such events. This robust, real-world data solidifies Heartflow Plaque Staging as the most powerful CTA-based independent predictor for personalized risk stratification, enabling clinicians to identify high-risk individuals beyond conventional metrics. “Stenosis has long been our primary lens for evaluating coronary risk, but it tells an incomplete story, as this registry demonstrates. With over 15,000 patients and 16 years of follow-up, we now have compelling real-world evidence that total plaque volume independently drives adverse events, regardless of risk factors or the presence of anatomical stenosis,” said Ron Blankstein, M.D., Director of Cardiac Computed Tomography at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, and Professor of Medicine and Radiology at Harvard Medical School. “These findings catalyze a meaningful shift in how we approach risk stratification by more accurately identifying patients who might otherwise have been characterized as having lower risk based on conventional assessment and optimizing management based on their actual disease burden.” Comparative Effectiveness of Coronary Computed Tomographic Angiography With or Without AI-Plaque Analysis and Stress Testing on Lipid Lowering After One Year: A Primary Analysis of the DECIDE Registry (Poster 1469-058, March 29, 12:30 p.m. CDT)This analysis, involving nearly 3,800 patients, compared patient management guided by CCTA with Plaque Analysis versus traditional stress-test-guided care over a one-year follow-up. A significantly higher portion of patients whose care was informed by Plaque Analysis initiated lipid-lowering therapy and achieved guideline-recommended LDL goals (
