是胆固醇酯转移蛋白 (CETP) 选择性抑制剂。根据人血浆的抑制曲线，Torcetrapib (CP-529414) 对CETP 的最有效浓度为 37 nM。

CP-532623, a close structural analog of Torcetrapib, is a CETP inhibitor with highly lipophilic properties. It elevates high-density lipoprotein cholesterol.

GW590735 is a potent and selective agonist of PPARα with an EC50 value of 4 nM for the expression a GAL4-responsive reporter gene and at least 500-fold selectivity versus PPARγ and PPARδ. GW590735 significantly increased HDL cholesterol, decreased LDL and VLDL cholesterol, and significantly reduced triglycerides. Maximal increases in HDL cholesterol were 37%, 53%, and 84% with fenofibrate, torcetrapib, and GW590735, respectively.
