Percent Change in Fasting Triglyceride Levels Primary · 5 years on metreleptin or last observation carried forward

Fasting triglyceride levels after 5 years on metreleptin, measured in mg/dL are compared to fasting triglyceride levels at baseline). The median percent increase (positive numbers) or decrease from baseline is shown, along with the full range.

GroupValue95% CI
Metreleptin55.76-66.79 – 203.80
Percent Change in Hemoglobin A1c Levels Secondary · 5 years on metreleptin or last observation carried forward

Fasting hemoglobin A1c levels after 5 years on metreleptin, measured in % are compared to fasting Hemoglobin levels at baseline). Thus, for example, a change from 10% to 5% would be a -50% change (or 50% decrease). The median percent increase (positive numbers) or decrease from baseline is shown, along with the full range.
