Brief Summary

This study is a phase 3, randomized, double-blind,placebo-controlled, parallel-group study to assess the safety and efficacy oftwo different regimens of mipomersen in patients with familialhypercholesterolemia and inadequately controlled low-density lipoproteincholesterol. This study will be conducted in about 30 countries globally,enrolling 480 patients. From India,40 patients will be enrolled in to the study at 4 centers.

Theprimary objective of this study is to determine whether mipomersen (ISIS301012) significantly reduces atherogenic lipid levels in patients with severeheterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (severe HeFH), defined aslow-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels ≥200 mg/dL plus the presenceof coronary heart disease (CHD)/risk equivalents or LDL-C levels ≥300 mg/dLregardless of the presence of CHD/risk equivalents compared to placebo. Twodifferent mipomersen dosing regimens will be studied: subcutaneous (SC)mipomersen 200 mg once weekly versus placebo, and SC mipomersen 70 mg thriceweekly versus placebo.

Primary outcome measure will be percent change fromBaseline in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in Cohort 1 [ TimeFrame: Baseline and Week 60 ]
