Pilot Study To Assess CAT-2003 in Patients With Chylomicronemia

A Phase 2 Pilot Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of CAT-2003 in Patients With Chylomicronemia

The purpose of this study is to assess safety and efficacy of CAT-2003 in patients with chylomicronemia. The study will evaluate the effects of CAT-2003 on fasting total and chylomicron triglyceride levels, as well as postprandial total and chylomicron triglyceride clearance.

This is a single-blind study. All patients will receive placebo for 1 week, and CAT-2003 for 12 weeks during the 13 week treatment period.

Key Inclusion Criteria:

• Familial Chylomicronemia (Fasting triglycerides ≥ 880 mg/dL at Screening and documented history of plasma post-heparin LDL activity < 20% of normal or genetic confirmation of homozygosity or compound heterozygosity for loss-of-function mutations in familial chylomicronemia-causing genes) OR
• Non-familial Chylomicronemia (Fasting triglycerides ≥ 440 mg/dL at Screening and documented history of fasting triglycerides ≥ 880 mg/dL)

Key Exclusion Criteria:

• History of any major cardiovascular event within 6 months of Screening
• Type I diabetes mellitus or use of insulin
• History of pancreatitis within 3 month of Screening
