The apoA-1 Milano discovery fueled a race to discover new HDL-raising drugs. Pfizer alone poured more than $800 million into torceptrapib, which raised HDL by 60%. But the drug was shelved in December because of a higher-than-expected death rate among study participants.

This tells me that forcing the body to increase HDL is not healthy. High HDL may well be a symptom of good heath, rather than a cause of it. |
