Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether LCQ908 is effective and safe in lowering triglycerides in subjects with Familial Chylomicronemia Syndrome (FCS) (Hyperlipoproteinemia \[HLP\] type I). Data from this study will be used to support a registration submission of LCQ908 20 mg and 40 mg as treatment of chylomicronemia in subjects with FCS (HLP Type 1).

Primary Outcome

Blood samples were collected for a fasting lipid panel, including triglycerides. If the 12-week value was missing, the measurement value at 12 weeks or the last available post-baseline measurement value during the double-blind treatment period was analyzed. Baseline is defined as the average of fasting triglyceride values taken at day -3 and day 1. Adjusted geometric means are calculated by back-transforming the adjusted means from the model and expressing as a percentage change from baseline.
