Description: Evacetrapib, also known as LY2484595, is a CETP inhibitor currently under development by Eli Lilly & Company. LY2484595 inhibits cholesterylester transfer protein, which transfers and thereby increases high-density lipoprotein and lowers low-density lipoprotein. It is thought that modifying lipoprotein levels modifies the risk of cardiovascular disease. The first CETP inhibitor, torcetrapib, was unsuccessful because it increased levels of the hormone aldosterone and increased blood pressure, which led to excess cardiac events when it was studied. Evacetrapib does not have the same effect. When studied in a small clinical trial in people with elevated LDL and low HDL, significant improvements were noted in their lipid profile.

More Info: Evacetrapib is one of two CETP inhibitors currently being evaluated (the other being anacetrapib). Two other CETP inhibitors (torcetrapib and dalcetrapib) were discontinued during trials due to increased deaths and little identifiable cardiovascular benefit (despite substantial increases in HDL). Some hypothesize that CETP inhibitors may still be useful in the treatment of dyslipidemia, though significant caution is warranted. (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evacetrapib).         

Product Data:
Biological target: Evacetrapib is a CETP inhibitor, which inhibits human recombinant CETP protein (IC50 5.5 nM) and CETP activity in human plasma (IC50 36 nM) in vitro.
In vitro activity: The in vitro activity of evacetrapib against CETP was first tested in the buffer CETP assay, in which human recombinant CETP protein was used as the source for the protein activity. The concentration of the compound causing half-maximum inhibition of CETP activity in this assay was 5.5 nM. This compares to 25.2 nM for torcetrapib and 21.5 nM for anacetrapib in the same assay. Reference: J Lipid Res. 2011 Dec;52(12):2169-2176. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21957197/
In vivo activity: Evacetrapib administered orally at 30 mg/kg resulted in 98.4%, 98.6%, and 18.4% inhibition of CETP activity at 4, 8 and 24 h post dose respectively. Evacetrapib dosed orally at 30 mg/kg resulted in 129.7% increase in HDL-C 8 h after oral administration (Fig. 2A, B). The efficacy of evacetrapib was comparable to that of torcetrapib.
