Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) is an exchange protein which transfers cholesteryl esters from HDL to VLDL, IDL, and LDL in exchange for triglycerides.{11793,15303} Dalcetrapib is an inhibitor of CETP that exhibits an IC50 value of 9 µM for plasma CETP in rabbits.{8320} Inhibition of CETP by dalcetrapib in rabbits given an atherogenic diet leads to elevation of HDL, decreased VLDL, and attenuation of the induced atherosclerosis.{8320} In human subjects, dalcetrapib also inhibits CETP activity and increases plasma HDL levels but it does not reduce the risk of recurrent cardiovascular events.{15303,21933}
