BET inhibition is an epigenetic mechanism that can regulate disease-causing genes. Apabetalone is a BET inhibitor selective for the second bromodomain (BD2) within the BET proteins. This selective inhibition of apabetalone on BD2 produces a specific set of biological effects with potentially important benefits for patients with high-risk cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, end-stage renal disease treated with hemodialysis, neurodegenerative disease, Fabry disease, peripheral artery disease and other orphan diseases, while maintaining a well described safety profile.Resverlogix common shares trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX:RVX).Follow us on:Twitter: @Resverlogix_RVXLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/resverlogix-corp-/For further information please contact:Investor Relations
