Brief Summary

The rate of change in fasting apoB48 from baseline to week 16 in pemafibrate treated group and omega-3 fatty acid ethyl were -50.8%(IQR-62.9,-30.3) and -17.5%(IQR -38.3, 15.3) (p<0.001),respectively. We concluded that pemafibrate was superior to omega-3 fatty acid ethyl in lowering effect of fasting apo B48.Pemafibrate is expected to reduce the residual risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease with statin treatment.
