Researchers are investigating the effects of obicetrapib 10 mg, both combined with ezetimibe 10 mg as a fixed-dose combination and as monotherapy, in people with metabolic syndrome and/or Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus who are already receiving standard lipid-lowering therapy. This Phase 3, placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized study aims to evaluate how well these treatments lower LDL cholesterol and assess their safety and tolerability. Participants will be assigned to one of three groups: obicetrapib 10 mg plus ezetimibe 10 mg fixed-dose combination, obicetrapib 10 mg alone, or placebo, all added to their existing guideline-recommended lipid-lowering therapy. The treatments are taken daily, and the study measures the percent change in LDL cholesterol from the start to Day 84. During the study, participants will undergo regular monitoring including lipid measurements and safety assessments. Researchers will carefully track changes in LDL cholesterol and other health markers over the 84-day treatment period. The study focuses on how these treatments perform in real-world patients with metabolic syndrome or Type 2 Diabetes while continuing standard care.
