| Target | PPARδ (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta) |
| Modality | Small molecule |
| Therapeutic area | Cardiovascular |
| Phase | Phase 3 |
Mechanism of action
PPARδ agonists enhance fatty acid oxidation and improve insulin sensitivity by activating nuclear receptors involved in metabolic regulation. ABT-335 was developed to improve lipid profiles and reduce cardiovascular risk in dyslipidemic patients, particularly those with low HDL cholesterol or elevated triglycerides.
Approved indications
- Dyslipidemia with low HDL cholesterol
- Hypertriglyceridemia
Common side effects
- Muscle pain or myalgia
- Elevated liver enzymes
- Gastrointestinal disturbances
