ESC finishes up this Wednesday 8/31. Here's what's on tap for the next two and a half weeks. Of course, we are all expecting a reschedule of the AGM as well. Check out the end of the message for the "bonus" October event.

European Association for the Study of Diabetes meeting in Munich Sept 12-16. They will present a poster entitled "Apabetalone (RVX-208) acts on epigenetics to lower Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events (MACE) in diabetes patients with atherosclerosis via microbiome activity," which focuses on a new mechanism of how RVX-208 beneficially affects the complement cascade via modulating the hepatic response of trimethylamine oxide (TMAO) to increase complement proteins, as well as RVX-208 suppressing levels of flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 (FMO3), the enzyme that makes TMAO. Full abstract at the end of this previous post.
BioPharm America in Boston Sept 13-15. Resverlogix is listed as a presenting company, but not sure what day they are presenting
Here's the bonus event. Just saw this tonight when I searched for "resverlogix" on Twitter. In a tweet from Life Science Report from 8/25, it linked to a document advertising this:

One American dies every 40 seconds of cardiovascular disease. Diabetic patients have a 2-4 times higher death rate and 68% of people with diabetes over the age of 65 will die from heart disease even if their glucose is well managed. By 2030, the total projected economic burden and direct costs of cardiovascular disease in the U.S. is estimated at $918B annually. We hope you will attend the event to hear from world leading experts on the latest technologies of how this grievous disease burden is being addressed.
Resverlogix Corp. (TSE:RVX) is a leading biotechnology company developing novel drugs for the treatment of high-risk cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease via ‘epigenetics’ - modifications of gene expression without altering DNA sequence. Their lead drug candidate apabetalone (RVX-208) is currently in a Phase 3 clinical trial ‘BETonMACE’ for high-risk cardiovascular disease patients with T2 diabetes mellitus to reduce the incidence of Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE) in this sick patient group. 15% of patients will also have renal disease. MACE in the BETonMACE study is defined as cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction or stroke.
