Dezima Pharma is a biopharma company developing novel drugs to treat dyslipidemia.

Dezima Pharma – anti-dyslipidemic compounds

Dyslipidemia is a major modifiable risk for cardiovascular disease. Dezima aims to develop novel anti-dyslipidemic compounds in cardiovascular disease from pre-clinical development to meaningful proof of concept (PoC) in patients. Dezima’s lead program is DEZ-001. DEZ-001 is a potent cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) inhibitor that has shown a significant decrease of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels, and an increase of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels. DEZ-001 has shown a clean safety profile in clinical single and multiple ascending dose studies with an extensive preclinical and clinical safety and efficacy package supporting further development. Dezima Pharma also recently announced the complete enrolment of a study with TA-8995 in asymptomatic subjects with isolated, severely elevated Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)). Following proof of concept, Dezima Pharma will seek strategic partners to further development in the larger cardiovascular indications, and/or continue in-house development of its compounds in smaller, orphan-type indications.
