Brief summary

The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of multiple doses of gemcabene 600 mg QD compared to placebo in patients with hypercholesterolemia not adequately controlled on high-intensity or moderate-intensity stable statin therapy. Patients with HeFH, ASCVD, or otherwise uncontrolled, may be included with baseline LDL-C value ≥ 100 mg/dL. Subjects were randomized 1:1 to gemcabene 600 mg once daily (QD) or placebo.

Interventions

Two 300 mg tablets and 1 placebo tablet administered orally, once daily for 12 weeks.

DRUGPlacebo

Three placebo tablets administered orally once daily for 12 weeks.

Uncontrolled hypertension, defined as sitting systolic blood pressure \> 180 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure \> 110 mmHg, and confirmed by repeat measurement; 13. Currently receiving cancer treatments or, in the Investigator's opinion, at risk of relapse for recent cancer; 14. Inadequate wash-out of a PCSK9 inhibitor (8 weeks prior to the Screening Visit), a fibrate lipid-regulating agent (6 weeks prior to the Screening Visit), niacins (4 weeks prior to the Screening Visit), or other lipid-regulating therapies such as bile acid sequestrants (4 weeks prior to the Screening Visit); 15. Hypersensitivity to or a history of significant adverse reactions to any fibrate lipid-regulating agent; 16. Use of any excluded medications or supplements (e.g. potent cytochrome P450 \[CYP\] 3A4 inhibitors as described in Appendix D; 17. History of drug or alcohol abuse within the past year or inability to comply with protocol requirements, including subjects restrictions (see Section 5.6.3); 18. Previously treated with gemcabene (CI-1027), participation in another clinical study of an investigational agent or device concurrently or within 1 month prior the Screening Visit, or use of an investigational agent within 1 month or 5 half-lives (if known), whichever is longer, prior to the Screening Visit; 19. Any other finding which, in the opinion of the Investigator, would compromise the subject's safety or participation in the study.

Reported score is a percentage. Change from baseline calculated as mean at week 12 minus mean at baseline. Negative scores indicate less risk of developing cardiovascular disease.

Change From Baseline in Framingham Risk Score

Framingham Risk Score was an estimate of a participant's 10-year risk of developing cardiovascular disease which was computed using sex-specific algorithms based on total point score (range less than negative 3 \[best\] to greater than or equal to 14 \[worst\] for men; less than or equal to negative 2 \[best\] and greater than or equal to 17 \[worst\] for women) : which was derived of participant's age, systolic blood pressure , smoking status, TC, HDL-C, treatment for hypertension, and diabetes status. Reported score is a percentage. Change from baseline calculated as mean at week 12 minus mean at baseline. Negative scores indicate less risk of developing cardiovascular disease.
