Ion775 for high triglyceride levels: safety, tolerability, and how well it works
Official title: A Phase 2, Open-label Trial Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy of ION775 in Adults With Hypertriglyceridemia
Run by Ionis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. · NCT07604974 · Data updated 2026-11-12
A drug called ION775 is being tested to see if it can safely lower fasting triglycerides in adults with hypertriglyceridemia or severe hypertriglyceridemia who are already on standard lipid medicines.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults with fasting triglycerides ≥350 mg/dL (≥3.95 mmol/L) or ≥500 mg/dL (≥5.65 mmol/L) who are on standard of care lipid therapy.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with severely impaired kidney function, uncontrolled diabetes (HbA1c ≥ 8.5%), or significantly abnormal liver tests may not experience benefit and could be excluded from participation.

What this trial studies
This is a Phase 2, open-label, parallel-dose study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and effect of ION775 on fasting triglyceride levels. The trial includes a 4-6 week screening period, a 6-month treatment period, and a 6-month post-treatment follow-up. Participants will continue standard of care lipid-lowering therapy while receiving ION775. Key exclusions include high HbA1c, elevated liver enzymes, high bilirubin not due to Gilbert's syndrome, and significantly reduced kidney function. The study is conducted at three Ionis investigative sites in the U.S. and is sponsored by Ionis Pharmaceuticals.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, participants may experience reductions in fasting triglyceride levels while retaining their current lipid-lowering regimens.
How similar studies have gone: There is prior work in this therapeutic area with similar approaches; results to date vary and this study aims to further establish safety and efficacy for ION775.
