They have the biomarker of risk but no evidence of the disease , even later in life when you would expect them to have it. When there is a history of early events, then the likelihood of a member of that family with an elevated Lp(a) having premature coronary atherosclerosis is high. Atherosclerosis. 2017 Jan;256:47-52.

1,6 Until recently atherosclerosis has been thought of as the result of passive lipid accumulation in the vessel wall. However, the development of atherosclerosis is now known to be much more complex, with a key role for immune cells and inflammation in conjunction with hyperlipidemia and elevated LDL levels.7

There was no increase in new onset diabetes mellitus or worsening of diabetes mellitus. Though this effect has also been documented with statin therapy, monotherapy using PCSK9 inhibitors or ezetimibe have not been associated with similar reduction in biomarkers of inflammation. Treatment discontinuation was similar to placebo.
