What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published

Summary

This trial tests whether EDP167, an experimental RNA drug, can safely lower triglycerides and other harmful fats in the blood of adults with mixed dyslipidemia. Participants receive one of three doses of EDP167 or a placebo as an injection every 12 weeks, alongside their usual statin therapy. The study measures changes in blood fat levels over 24 weeks and includes an extension phase to assess longer-term effects.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
EDP167, an experimental small interfering RNA (siRNA) drug that targets ANGPTL3 protein
What this could lead to
If EDP167 works, it could offer a new way to lower harmful fats in the blood, potentially reducing heart disease risk for people with mixed dyslipidemia.
What could go wrong
This is an early Phase 2 trial with a small number of participants. The drug may not lower lipids enough, and side effects are still being studied.

Inclusion Criteria: * Participants aged ≥18 years and ≤75 years at the time of signing the informed consent form, male or female, with a BMI of ≥18.5 and \<40 kg/m²; * Fasting serum TG at screening: TG ≥ 150 mg/dL (1.7 mmol/L) and \< 500 mg/dL (5.6 mmol/L), and LDL-C ≥ 70 mg/dL (1.8 mmol/L) * Willing to maintain a routine low-fat diet throughout the study * Have received stable-dose statin therapy of moderate intensity or higher for at least 4 weeks prior to lipid testing at screening (unless statin-intolerant). Exclusion Criteria: * Participants who have used any antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) or small interfering RNA (siRNA) agents within 12 months prior to randomization; * Participants who have received or are receiving ANGPTL3- or ApoC3-targeted therapy, or have participated in any other clinical drug study within 6 months prior to screening or within 5 half-lives (whichever is longer); * Participants planning to undergo bariatric surgery or weight-loss intervention during the study; * Participants with uncontrolled medical conditions that may affect lipid or lipoprotein levels, such as nephrotic syndrome, severe hepatic disease, Cushing's syndrome, thyroid disorders, etc.; * Participants with a history of acute pancreatitis within 12 weeks prior to randomization; * Participants with a history of acute coronary syndrome, stroke, or NYHA Class III-IV heart failure within 24 weeks prior to randomization; * Participants who have undergone coronary intervention within 24 weeks prior to randomization or plan to receive coronary intervention or pacemaker implantation during the study; * Participants with a history of major surgery within 12 weeks prior to screening or scheduled elective surgery requiring hospitalization during the study; * Participants with uncontrolled hypertension at screening.
