Brief summary
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the effect of MAR001 compared to placebo on levels of TG in adults with elevated TG and RC.
Detailed description
MAR-103 is a randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled study with two parts (Part A and Part B). In both Part A and Part B, participants will be randomized at Day 1. The study will include a screening period (up to 8 weeks), a 24-week treatment period, and a 12-week safety follow-up period. The 12-week safety follow-up period will include 2 clinic visits at Week 28 and Week 36 (End of Study). Part A: Approximately 216 participants with baseline TG between 150 to 880 mg/dL will be enrolled in Part A at a 3:1 ratio of MAR001 to placebo for dosing every 4 weeks (Q4W). Three doses of MAR001 will be administered. Part B: Approximately 100 participants with baseline TG between 450 and 2000 mg/dL will be enrolled in Part B at a 1:1 ratio of MAR001 to placebo for dosing every 4 weeks (Q4W). The MAR001 dose will be within the range tested during Part A and will be selected based on emerging Part A data.
