Conclusions•High Cholesterol is a Growing Epidemic in the U.S.
•40 mg/day of SQ1 will Reduce the Serum Cholesterol Level by 60% •Higher Efficacy•Lower Side Effects
•Demand for this Price of Drug is Close to 800,000 Patients
•Best Price to a Corresponding High Demand and NPV of the Project is $1.33 for 10 mg/day.
Aim
The objective of this project is to determine the feasibility of manufacturing and commercialization of a novel enzyme inhibitor of cholesterol synthesis. The goal is to propose a drug capable of lowering at least 50% of the total cholesterol level in patients dealing with high serum levels with the highest efficacy. This is done by
•Analyzing the FDA
• Manufacturing processes,
•Equipment pricing.
Introduction
According to the Center for Disease Control, heart diseases and strokes are the first and third leading causes of death in the United States. In this presentation Squalestatin 1 is being evaluated as a new enzyme inhibitor for lowering cholesterol.
•Selective Inhibitor of Squalene Synthase•Key Enzyme in Cholesterol Biosynthesis
•SQ1 will be used to lower serum cholesterol level•By Controlling the Flux of Cholesterol Biosynthesis
This work mainly focuses on the eradication of these diseases by using a new enzyme to lower the cholesterol level in humans.

Discussion
•The chances of passing FDA are estimated at 69%
•The total cost is $69.3 millions for 10 years
•31% Risk of failing FDA approval for a total loss of $138 millions

•SQ1 is orally introduced into the organism and will inhibit cholesterol synthesis in the hepatic cells
• In 24 hours 99% of the daily dose of SQ1 ingested will be eliminated by the kidneys.
• Due to its lower molecular size and dosage SQ1 presents a higher clearance than the other statins. This will considerably decrease the risk of side effects.
Squalestatin Pathway
Arthralgia
•43% of statins produce severe side effects such as myalgia and athralgia (figure below) were related to their impact on ATP biosynthesis.
• The replacement of these statins by SQ1 will eliminate the occurrence of these side effects.
