MedKoo CAT#: 319870

CAS#: 355129-15-6

Description: Eprotirome, also known as KB-2115, is a liver-selective thyroid hormone receptor agonist that has been shown to lower plasma LDL cholesterol concentrations in previous phase 1 and 2 studies of patients with dyslipidaemia. KB2115 lowers plasma LDL cholesterol and stimulates bile acid synthesis without cardiac effects in humans.

Additional Information

Eprotirome can lower LDL cholesterol concentrations in patients with familial hypercholesterolaemia when added to conventional statin treatment with or without ezetimibe, but that it has the potential to induce liver injury. These findings, along with findings of cartilage damage in dogs, raise serious doubts about selective thyroid hormone mimetics as a therapeutic approach to lower LDL cholesterol concentrations.
