RVX-208 is a first-in-class, small molecule that inhibits BET bromodomains. It is currently in clinical study for the treatment of atherosclerosis. RVX-208 functions by removing atherosclerotic plaque via reverse cholesterol transport (RCT), the natural process through which atherosclerotic plaque is transported out of the arteries and removed from the body by the liver. RVX-208 increases production of ApoA-I, the key building block of functional high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles and the type required for RCT. Because they are newly produced, these functional HDL particles are flat and empty and can efficiently remove plaque and stabilize or reverse atherosclerotic disease. RVX-208 is currently being evaluated in phase 2b studies for its ability to reverse and/or stabilize atherosclerotic disease. The drug candidate also has the potential to treat other indications, including neurodegenerative disorders.

If Linus Pauling and Matthias Rath's Unified Theory is basically correct,http://www.drrathresearch.org/research/publications/leading-publications/97-unified-theory-of-human-cardiovascular-disease-leading-the-way-to-the-abolition-of-this-disease-as-a-cause-for-human-mortality.html then this drug, if it works as advertised, will kill people.

But what else is new. Pharmaceuticals (toximolecular substances) routinely kill and debilitate.

Why you ask?

It would be like using high doses of lysine and proline without taking vitamin C.

Is anything else, i.e. other than ascorbate [and possibly lysine, and maybe proline], needed to reverse "CVD?" Of course, I understand "big pharma's" [and doctor's] interest!
