Agents to Raise HDL

Do we have the right Biomarker of HDL

function?

The Case for HDL

The clinical equipoise

HDL-C as a biomarker of CAD, CVD

HDL Functions and biomarkers

Where do we go from here?

Yin and Yang of HDL

The epidemiological association between HDL-C and CVD is strong and coherent.

HDL-C still predicts events if LDL-C is low

Animal data is unequivocal: HDL protect against atherosclerosis

Strong biological plausibility for HDL as a therapeutic target

Mendelian Randomization does not support HDL-Cholesterol as a causal risk factor

The Clinical trial data is neutral (and, in some cases, there is harm)

►The purpose of this study is to investigate

apolipoprotein-mimetic peptides for their ability to

mimic the functionality of HDL particles

►We therefore investigated compound ATI-5261 in the

process of HDL biogenesis

Conclusion: In ASSURE potentially more favorable effects of the apoA-I inducer, RVX-208, on coronary disease progression and MACE were observed in patients with higher levels of systemic inflammation.

Why does this NOT work?

HDL might not be causal in protection against atherosclerosis

HDL-cholesterol is a biomarker of CV health

Need for better biomarkers of HDL function

This does not fit the biology

Most likely

Yes, but which one?

Cellular Cholesterol Efflux

Anti-oxidant

Anti-inflammatory

Vascular Endothelial function

Anti-thrombotic

The Challenge

Develop Biomarkers of HDL Function

That can be tested in outcome studies, be reproducible and brought to high throughput.

The HDL pathway remains a sound therapeutic target.

HDL-C is not a good biomarker of therapeutic success

HDL biogenesis, lipidome and proteome may hold the key to novel therapies.
