International Steering Committee for RVX-208 IVUS Trial Formed
Date:10/7/2008

is the

Director of the Atherosclerosis Research Group.

Dr. Allen Taylor, M.D., Chief, Cardiology Service, Professor of

Medicine, USUHS Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C.

The role of the Steering Committee is to provide overall supervision of the trial and ensure that it is being conducted in accordance with the principles of Good Clinical Practice and FDA regulations. The Steering Committee will agree on the trial protocol, any protocol amendments and provide advice to the investigators on all aspects of the trial.

Apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I), the main component of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) represent the body's natural defense system against atherosclerosis by mediating reverse cholesterol transport, i.e. transport of peripheral cholesterol including that of the vessel wall to the liver for elimination from the body. In multiple human and animal studies over-expression or repeated infusion of ApoA-I inhibit progression and induce regression of atherosclerosis in animals and humans.

RVX-208, a novel small molecule drug that facilitates endogenous ApoA-I production, is positioned as an emerging drug that holds the most promise for the treatment of atherosclerosis. RVX-208 is designed to increase ApoA-I production and thereby raise HDL levels thus enhancing HDL functionality to augment reverse cholesterol transport.
