Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Percent Change in Fasting Triglycerides From Baseline to 12 Weeks
Baseline to 12 weeks

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.

Secondary Endpoints
Percentage of Patients Responding to Investigational Treatment by Achieving Fasting Triglycerides (TG) of at Least 40% From Baseline or Final Fasting TG < 8.4 mmol/L (750 mg/dL)
Baseline, 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 52 weeks
Percentage of Patients Responding to Investigational Treatment by Achieving Final Fasting Triglycerides < 8.4 mmol/L (750 mg/dL)

LCQ908 20 mgEXPERIMENTALIn period II (0-12 weeks) double-blind treatment: one LCQ908 20 mg active tablet + one LCQ908 placebo matching to 40mg tablet, once daily. No dose titration allowed. In period III (12-52 weeks) double blind treatment: Without down titration, the period II dosing regimen will follow. Following decision to down titrate: one LCQ908 10 mg active tablet + one LCQ908 placebo matching to 40 mg tablet + one LCQ908 placebo matching to 10mg tablets, once daily. A low fat diet will be followed and recorded in patient diary.
