Brief Summary:
The primary objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of CaPre 4 g daily, compared to placebo, in lowering fasting triglyceride (TG) levels in patients with fasting TG levels ≥500 mg/dL and ≤1500 mg/dL (≥5.7 mmol/L and ≤17.0 mmol/L) after 12 weeks of treatment.
Approximately 615 subjects will be screened to obtain 245 randomized subjects following a 2.5:1 treatment allocation ratio (CaPre: placebo).

- Significant coagulopathy as defined by a known hereditary deficiency of coagulation factors or platelet function or an unexplained elevation of the prothrombin time (PT) international normalized ratio (INR) of ≥1.5. Subjects using warfarin [Coumadin®] or heparin are allowed. Subjects receiving other anticoagulants dabigatran, rivaroxaban, or apixaban are allowed.
