Mean Percent Change in Non-high-density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (Non-HDL-C) From Baseline to Week 12

Non-HDL-C were determined by ultracentrifugation. LS mean was provided for the comparison of MGL-3196 versus placebo and it used a linear model with percent change from baseline as the dependent variable and treatment as a factor

Time frame: Baseline up to Week 12

Mean Percent Change In Triglycerides From Baseline To Week 12

Triglycerides were determined by ultracentrifugation. LS mean was provided for the comparison of MGL-3196 versus placebo and it used a linear model with percent change from baseline as the dependent variable and treatment as a factor.

Time frame: Baseline up to Week 12

Population: mITT population: all participants who were randomized in the study, received at least 2 weeks of study drug, and had a valid lipid measurement at Week 2 or later.

Percent Change From Baseline in LDL-C at Week 2 and Week 4 in Patients in the 100 mg and the 60 mg Groups

LDL-C was determined by ultracentrifugation or direct measure. Least-squares (LS) mean was provided for the comparison of MGL-3196 versus placebo and it used a linear model with percent change from baseline as the dependent variable and treatment as a factor.

Percent Change in LDL-C From Baseline to Week 12 by Systemic Exposure Category

The effect on percent change in LDL-C from baseline to Week 12 was determined by patient exposure category (higher/lower). Patients taking MGL-3196 were categorized into lower and higher exposure groups. Patients in the higher exposure group must either have had estimated Week 2 AUC ≥5,000 mg∙h/L, or if Week 2 AUC \<5,000 mg∙h/L but Week 4 pre-dose concentration \>1.5 ng/mL (if on 60 mg MGL-3196). All other patients were in the lower exposure group.
