Gemcabene is a dialkyl ether dicarboxylic acid with antihyperlipidemic activity. In animal models gemcabene increased high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels and increased HDL particle size. Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, trigylcerides, and apolipoprotein C-III levels were decreased as well. In human test subjects, the HDL lowering effect of gemcabene was only seen in patients with high (>200 mg/dl) levels of triglycerides.
