A Second Open-Label Extension of a Double-Blind, Parallel, Phase IV Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Adjunctive Lovaza® (Formerly Known as Omacor®) Therapy in Hypertriglyceridemic Subjects Treated With Antara™
This was a 24-month, open-label extension study that followed an 8-week double-blind study (Study LOV111859/OM5) and an 8-week, open-label extension study (LOV111860/OM5X). Study LOV111859/OM5 was conducted to evaluate whether combination therapy with Lovaza (omega-3-acid ethyl esters) and Antara (fenofibrate) would result in a greater reduction in serum triglyceride levels in hypertriglyceridemic subjects than treatment with fenofibrate alone. This second extension of 24 months was to assess the continued efficacy of adjunctive Lovaza (omega-3-acid ethyl esters) \[formerly known as Omacor\] therapy in hypertriglyceridemic subjects treated with Antara (fenofibrate) in lowering serum triglyceride (TG) levels.
