Percent Change in Fasting Triglyceride LevelsPrimary· 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.

Percent Change in Hemoglobin A1c LevelsSecondary· 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.

The study investigators' aim is to determine the long term safety and efficacy of Metreleptin (Myalept,) in promoting amelioration of metabolic abnormalities in patients with all forms of partial lipodystrophy. Patients will be offered this protocol under the following condition: Subjects have completed University of Michigan research protocol MB002-014 and have shown improved clinical benefit as judged by clinical criteria set forth in this protocol.
