Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) inhibitor; increases serum levels of HDL-cholesterol
Dalcetrapib is a cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) inhibitor. It increases HDL levels, but showed variable results on clinical outcomes. Clinical outcomes, effects on C-reactive protein and cholesterol efflux have been found to be genotype-dependent, influenced by correlated polymorphisms in the ADCY9 (adenylate cyclase type 9) gene. Positive results were obtained with AA genotype of ADCY9 gene whereas the GG genotype showed negative results and the AG genotype was neutral.

Cardiovascular (CV) atherosclerotic disease remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, despite the advances in contemporary therapies. Inflammation is an important process in atherosclerosis, leading to plaque rupture and acute coronary syndrome. Although statin therapy has substantially reduced

High-density lipoproteins are involved in reverse cholesterol transport and possess anti-inflammatory and antioxidative properties. Paradoxically, CETP (cholesteryl ester transfer protein) inhibitors have been shown to increase inflammation as revealed by a raised plasma level of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein.
