NCT ID NCT05902598
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This phase 3 study tested a drug called Plozasiran in 37 Chinese adults with Familial Chylomicronemia Syndrome (FCS), a rare condition causing extremely high blood fats. The trial compared the drug to a placebo over about two years, measuring how much it lowered triglyceride levels. All participants who finished could then receive the drug in an open-label extension.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Plozasiran (a drug injection that targets a protein to lower blood fats)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a new treatment option to control severe high triglycerides and reduce risk of pancreatitis in people with Familial Chylomicronemia Syndrome.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial with only 37 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug may cause side effects or fail to show lasting benefit.
