Anacetrapib is a CETP inhibitor which was being developed to treat elevated cholesterol levels in an effort to prevent cardiovascular disease.[1] In 2017 its development was abandoned by Merck.[2]
Evidence
In 2017 REVEAL trial anacetrapib was shown to decrease the risk of repeat heart attacks in high-risk patients with previous acute coronary events.[3]

Other CETP inhibitors:
- Torcetrapib was developed by Pfizer until December 2006 but caused unacceptable increases in blood pressure and had net cardiovascular detriment.
- Dalcetrapib was developed by Hoffmann–La Roche until May 2012. It did not raise blood pressure and did raise HDL, but it showed no clinically meaningful efficacy.
- Evacetrapib was developed by Eli Lilly & Company until October 2015.
