About Company
Resverlogix based in Calgary-based TSX-list biotech
company that is a world-leader in the development of
an oral therapy to actually regress plaque build-ups in
a person’s arteries.
Plaque build-up also known as atherosclerosis, is the
leading cause of cardiovascular disease (CVD), the
leading killer of men and women in the industrialized
world with over 18 million deaths reported in 2005
(World Health Organization).

About Company
NexVas™ Plaque Regression (NexVas PR), is a novel technology platform with
drugs that increase apolipoproteinA-I (ApoA-I) to reduce atherosclerosis (fatty
plaque build-up in the arteries), which is the leading cause of CVD. ApoA-I is
the key protective protein of high density lipoprotein (HDL), commonly known
as the “good cholesterol”. Current drugs on the market only manage
atherosclerosis burden but they have very limited or no effect on
atherosclerosis regression. NexVas PR aims to manage and regress
atherosclerosis. Resverlogix’s lead ApoA-I drug RVX-208 recently completed a
Phase 1b/2a human clinical trial.

Why Invest Now?
 Recent US analyst coverage by Rodman & Renshaw
with 1-year $8 price target
 Moving towards a Stage 2 Human Clinical Trial
(IVUS)
 Big Pharma could invest at any time as financing
will need to be done prior to IVUS
 1-per-cent and 5-per-cent regression of
atherosclerosis would save the U.S. health care
system between $22.9-billion (U.S.) and $76.8billion (U.S.) annually
