The strong negative association between HDL level and CVD risks has lead to the development of the “HDL-C hypothesis” which suggests that raising HDL level with pharmacological intervention is likely to reduce cardiovascular risks. In fact, HDL based therapies are challenging and their efficacy in reducing cardiovascular risks has not been uniform among all studies. While some studies reported that raising HDL-cholesterol in patients with a low baseline serum concentration may be effective for secondary prevention of coronary heart disease, other studies failed to decrease cardiovascular risks by raising HDL.<ref name="pmid20425274">{{cite journal| author=Khera AV, Rader DJ| title=Future therapeutic directions in reverse cholesterol transport. | journal=Curr Atheroscler Rep | year= 2010 | volume= 12 | issue= 1 | pages= 73-81 | pmid=20425274 | doi=10.1007/s11883-009-0080-0 | pmc=PMC3315100 | url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=20425274 }} </ref>

| ===HDL Raising Therapies===
| |
| | |
| ====Niacin====
| |
| According to several studies, [[niacin]] therapy is associated with improved [[lipoprotein]] profile in general and increase in the level of [[HDL]] in particular, which has been associated with decrease in cardiovascular events, decrease in mortality and regression of [[atherosclerosis]] plaques. Increase in [[HDL]] level by niacin can be attributed to the direct effect of the drug itself as well as to the niacin-induced decrease in the [[triglycerides]] level. The link between increasing HDL and improving cardiovascular outcomes is difficult to interpret as niacin's effects are not only limited to HDL but also include decreasing [[LDL]] and [[triglyceride]] levels.<ref name="pmid18239670">{{cite journal| author=Joy T, Hegele RA| title=Is raising HDL a futile strategy for atheroprotection? | journal=Nat Rev Drug Discov | year= 2008 | volume= 7 | issue= 2 | pages= 143-55 | pmid=18239670 | doi=10.1038/nrd2489 | pmc= | url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=18239670 }} </ref>

| ===Challenging HDL-C Hypothesis===
| |
| Studies have proven the inverse relationship between HDL levels and cardiovascular risks. Several therapies were designed to increase HDL levels aiming for secondary prevention of coronary heart diseases. While some trials succeeded to improve the cardiovascular outcomes by increasing HDL quantity, other trials failed to achieve this goal. The failure of these trials have raised questions regarding the efficacy of HDL-targeted therapies and the concept of improving HDL quality rather than quantity. The main trials that failed to improve cardiovascular outcomes by raising HDL levels are [[ILLUSTRATE]], [[RADIANCE 1]], [[RADIANCE 2]], [[ILLUMINATE Trial]] and [[Dal-OUTCOMES Trial]] which investigated CETP inhibitors as well as [[AIM-HIGH Trial]] which investigated the combination of niacin and statin. The failure of the CETP inhibitors studies can be attributed to the associated increase in [[blood pressure]] or direct impairment of the HDL quality by the CETP inhibitor.<ref name="pmid18239670">{{cite journal| author=Joy T, Hegele RA| title=Is raising HDL a futile strategy for atheroprotection? | journal=Nat Rev Drug Discov | year= 2008 | volume= 7 | issue= 2 | pages= 143-55 | pmid=18239670 | doi=10.1038/nrd2489 | pmc= | url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=18239670 }} </ref>
