Identification of a potent and metabolically stable series of fluorinated diphenylpyridylethanamine-based cholesteryl ester transfer protein inhibitors.

TLDR
A novel series of diphenylpyridylethanamine-based inhibitors of cholesteryl ester transfer protein is described, and optimization of the urea moiety is explored to balance in vitro metabolic stability with CETP potency in the whole plasma assay.

The Prediction of Human Pharmacokinetic Parameters from Preclinical and In Vitro Metabolism Data

TL;DR: This retrospective analysis has identified several approaches by which human pharmacokinetic data can be predicted from preclinical data and/or in vitro metabolism data that should find utility in the drug discovery and development processes in the identification and selection of compounds that will possess appropriate pharmacokinetics characteristics in humans for progression to clinical trials.

Relation of gemfibrozil treatment and lipid levels with major coronary events: VA-HIT: a randomized controlled trial.

TL;DR: Concentrations of LDL-C achieved with gemfibrozil treatment predicted a significant reduction in CHD events in patients with low HDL-C levels, however, the change in HDL- C levels only partially explained the beneficial effect of gem fibroZil.

Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein: A Novel Target for Raising HDL and Inhibiting Atherosclerosis

TL;DR: Small-molecule inhibitors of CETP have now been tested in human subjects and shown to increase the concentration of HDL cholesterol while decreasing that of LDL cholesterol and apoB, and test the hypothesis in randomized trials of humans that pharmacological inhibition of CETp retards the development of atherosclerosis.
