Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Serum Non-HDL Cholesterol
6 weeks

The primary endpoints are the differences in mean percent changes from baseline to end-of-treatment in non-HDL cholesterol between placebo and the 2g/day and 4g/day Epanova groups.

Change From Baseline to Week 12 in % Liver Fat as Assessed by MRI (Comparison Versus Placebo)
12 weeks

To evaluate the efficacy of the combination therapy (Epanova + Dapagliflozin) when compared to placebo with respect to reduction in liver fat content (%) at the end of 12 weeks of double-blinded treatment. Treatment effect in liver fat reduction (%) was assessed using a mixed linear model with the change from baseline on logarithmic scale as response variable and the logarithm of the baseline value as covariate, treatment as fixed effect, and center as random effect. The treatment effect was then back-transformed to original scale as Geometric mean ratio and presented as percentage change from baseline.
