A Phase III, Long Term, Open Label, Follow on Study of Microsomal Triglyceride Transfer Protein (MTP) Inhibitor 'Lomitapide' (LOMITAPIDE) in Patients With Homozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia
This was a long term follow on study to assess the continued long term safety and efficacy of
lomitapide in patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia.
lomitapide in patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia.
This was a phase III open label clinical trial to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety
of lomitapide at the maximum tolerated dose (for each patient) established during the
clinical trial 733-005/UP1002. Subjects completing the 78-week treatment period in study
733-005/UP1002 who have not met any of the stopping criteria will be eligible to participate
in 733-012. The treatment period continued until a decision was made by the local competent
authority regarding marketing authorization. Lomitapide will be given orally once daily.
Patient specific doses will be carried forward from 733-005/UP1002, but will not exceed the
maximum tolerated dose the patient received during 733-005 /UP1002. The maximum dose for any
patient was 80 mg/day. There was no reference therapy in this trial. The effects of the study
drug were compared to baseline data (from 733-005/UP1002). Concomitant lipid-lowering therapy
including plasmapheresis or LDL apheresis is permitted.
Note that hereafter, Week 0 in Study 733-005/UP1002 will be referred to as Baseline and Week
48 in Study AEGR-733-012 will be referred to as Week 126 (of overall treatment).
