Ireland based Amarin Corporation plc, a biopharmaceutical company, focuses on the development and commercialization of therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases in the United States. On November 12, 2018, an article was published, entitled "Amarin's REDUCE-IT Trial: Something Fishy?" The article addressed Amarin's "recent revelations of positive topline results" from its REDUCE-IT trial for Vascepa, its sole product. Specifically, the article raised the possibility that "the placebo group received an active agent that in effect was an anti-statin", and that the REDUCE-IT trial results may have consequently exaggerated the efficacy of Vascepa.
