Familial Chylomicronemia, Hypertriglyceridemia
Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of single- and multiple doses of ARO-APOC3 in healthy adult volunteers and in patients with severe hypertriglyceridemia and familial chylomicronemia syndrome (FCS).
Interventions
single or multiple doses of ARO-APOC3 by subcutaneous (sc) injections
calculated volume to match active treatment
