Frequently asked questions about dalcetrapib

What is dalcetrapib used for?

Dalcetrapib was developed for cardiovascular disease, including coronary heart disease, dyslipidemia, and peripheral arterial disease. It was studied in patients with stable coronary heart disease, recent acute coronary syndrome, and low HDL cholesterol. All trials are completed, and the drug remains investigational.

What does dalcetrapib target?

Dalcetrapib targets CETP, cholesteryl ester transfer protein. It is a CETP inhibitor small molecule. By inhibiting CETP, dalcetrapib was intended to raise HDL cholesterol levels, though its clinical development has not led to an approved product.

Who is developing dalcetrapib?

Dalcetrapib was developed by Roche Holding AG, which trades under the ticker RHHBY. Roche sponsored the clinical trial program for dalcetrapib, including the Phase 3 studies in cardiovascular disease.

What phase is dalcetrapib in?

Dalcetrapib reached Phase 3 clinical development. Six trials have been completed, including Phase 3 studies, and no trials are currently active. Dalcetrapib is not approved and remains an investigational drug.

What clinical trials is dalcetrapib in?

Dalcetrapib has been studied in six completed trials, including NCT01516541, NCT01323153, NCT00697203, and NCT00658515. The largest, NCT00658515, enrolled 15,871 patients with stable coronary heart disease and recent acute coronary syndrome. All trials are completed.

Is dalcetrapib the same as RO4607381?

Yes, dalcetrapib is also known as RO4607381. Both names refer to the same CETP inhibitor small molecule developed by Roche Holding AG for cardiovascular conditions. The alternative designation RO4607381 appears in several trial titles.
