Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Past or present disease (e.g., clinically significant forms of atherosclerotic disease, malignancy, gastrointestinal surgery or disease) that is judged by the Investigator to have the potential to interfere with the study procedures, compromise safety, or affect the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic evaluations. 2. Uncontrolled hypertension with blood pressure higher than 160/95 mmHg or poorly controlled diabetes with HbA1C > 9% at Screening. 3. Active pancreatitis. 4. Presence of overt proteinuria (> 200 mg/L) at Screening. 5. Glomerular filtration rate of = 40 mL/minute at screening (calculated using Cockkroft and Gault's formula). 6. Screening liver function tests alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), gamma-glutamyl-transferase (GGT) exceeding three-times the upper limit of the normal range. 7.

A history of drug abuse. 9. Any prescribed or over the counter medication taken within 2 weeks prior to the administration of study drug or within 6 times the elimination half life of the medication prior to the study drug intake (whichever is longer). Exceptions will include any concomitant medication that fulfils the criteria described in Section 4.2.4. 10. History or presence of gastro-intestinal, hepatic or renal disease or other condition known to interfere with the absorption, distribution, metabolism or excretion of drugs. 11. Exposure to any new chemical entities within 12 months prior to the first dosing day. 12. Participation in a trial with any drug within 3 months before the start of the study. 13. Blood donation of more than 500 mL blood in the previous 3 months. 14. Subjects attempting to father a child during and up to 3 months after the study 15. Any confirmed significant allergic reaction against any drug or multiple allergies. 16. Subjects do not report to the unit fasting on the evening of Day -1 and/or do not provide a diary card with sufficient information to derive their average daily food intake.

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To investigate the effect of repeat oral doses of SLx-4090 200 mg tid and 200 mg od for 14 days on plasma triglycerides in subjects with high triglyceride values.;Secondary Objective: •To investigate the effect of repeat oral doses of SLx-4090 for 14 days on additional pharmacodynamic parameters (high density lipoprotein (HDL), LDL, total cholesterol and ApoB lipoprotein) in subjects with high triglyceride values. • To determine the safety and tolerability of repeat oral doses of SLx-4090 for 14 days in subjects with high triglyceride values. • To investigate the pharmacokinetics of repeat oral doses of SLx-4090 for 14 days in subjects with high triglyceride values. • To determine changes in pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic profiles following daily tid and od doses of SLx-4090 and on a day where all administered meals have a high fat content (Day 10). • To investigate the effects of SLx-4090 on the composition, including the fat and lipid composition, of feces following Day 1 (placebo), 2 and 15 daily doses of SLx-4090 in male and female patients with hypertriglyceridemia ;Primary end point(s): Plasma triglyceride concentrations: on Day 1 after placebo dosing, on Day 2 following SLx-4090 (or placebo) and on Day 15, after repeat dosing for 14 days.
