2 Ezetimibe Inhibits Intestinal Cholesterol Uptake and Absorption (Discovered in mid 1990s by in-vivo cholesterol absorption screening) 1000 mg ABCG5/G8 MTP Transporter or Passive Diffusion? Ezetimibe?

11 Ezetimibe: Clinical Summary Selective intestinal cholesterol (10 mg average 54% to 65% reduction) and phytosterol absorption inhibitor (no effect on fat soluble vitamins, triglycerides, etc) Maximally effective dose is 10 mg once a day for hypercholesterolemia and sitosterolemia Extremely low systemic plasma levels (Cmax um), circulates enterohepatically, repeatedly delivering the agent back to the site of action (glucuronide metabolite 88% of total plasma drug concentration) LDL-C reduction 18% as monotherapy, and incremental 18-25% additional reduction with statin co-administration Plasma phytosterol levels reduced approximately 50% in patients with sitosterolemia or hypercholesterolemia
12 Molecular Target of Ezetimibe (Zetia, Ezetrol)? Intestinal Localization 125 I-Gluc-Ezetimibe in Rats
13 Genomic/ Bioinformatic Strategy to Identify the Molecular Target of Ezetimibe All known sterol processing mechanisms, as well as biochemical and molecular approaches were evaluated for more than 12 years. All identified proteins were not involved in the mechanism of action of Ezetimibe. Genomic/ Bioinformatic Strategy Hypothetical properties of an ideal candidate cholesterol transporter: Will be expressed in enterocytes in the proximal small intestine restricted tissue expression Membrane bound protein expressed on the surface of the cell Contain features found in proteins involved in sterol metabolism e.g. cholesterol regulated expression, sterol sensing domain Created and sequenced a rat small intestine DNA library of > 16,000 genes Using bioinformatics these sequences were assembled and human and mouse databases mined for the properties of the ideal cholesterol transporter
14 Niemann-Pick C1 Like 1 Protein Is Critical for Intestinal Cholesterol Absorption Scott W. Altmann,* Harry R. Davis, Jr., Li-ji Zhu, Xiaorui Yao, Lizbeth M. Hoos, Glen Tetzloff, Sai Prasad N. Iyer, Maureen Maguire, Andrei Golovko, Ming Zeng, Luquan Wang, Nicholas Murgolo, Michael P. Graziano Dietary cholesterol consumption and intestinal cholesterol absorption contribute to plasma cholesterol levels, a risk factor for coronary heart disease. The molecular mechanism of sterol uptake from the lumen of the small intestine is poorly defined. We show that Niemann-Pick C1Like 1(NPC1L1) protein plays a critical role in the absorption of intestinal cholesterol. NPC1L1 expression is enriched in the small intestine and is in the brush border membrane of enterocytes. Although otherwise phenotypically normal, NPC1L1-deficient mice exhibit a substantial reduction in absorbed cholesterol, which is unaffected by dietary supplementation of bile acids. Ezetimibe, a drug that inhibits cholesterol absorption, had no effect in NPC1L1 knockout mice, suggesting that NPC1L1 resides in an ezetimibe-sensitive pathway responsible for intestinal cholesterol absorption.

49 Conclusions IMPROVE-IT: First trial demonstrating incremental clinical benefit when adding a non-statin agent (ezetimibe) to statin therapy: YES: Non-statin lowering LDL-C with ezetimibe reduces cardiovascular events YES: Even Lower is Even Better (achieved mean LDL-C 53 vs. 70 mg/dl at 1 year) YES: Confirms ezetimibe safety profile Reaffirms the LDL hypothesis, that reducing LDL-C prevents cardiovascular events Results could be considered for future guidelines
