    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Percent lowering of TG levels from baseline following 12 weeks of repeated IV doses of evinacumab [Week 12]

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Percent TG lowering from baseline following 2 to 24 weeks of repeated IV doses of evinacumab [Up to 24 weeks]

    2. Changes in patient reported abdominal and GI daily symptom questionnaire [Up to 48 weeks]

    4. Degree of pancreatic injury/inflammation through 18F-2-Fluoro-2-Deoxy-D glucose positron emission tomography (18F-FDG-PET) imaging at baseline as assessed by 18F-FDG standardized uptake values SUVmax and SUVmean [Baseline]

    5. Change from baseline to degree of pancreatic injury/inflammation through 18F-FDG-PET imaging following 12 weeks of treatment with evinacumab as assessed by 18F-FDG standardized uptake values SUVmax and SUVmean [Week 12]

    6. Degree of pancreatic injury/inflammation through Diffusion Weighted-Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DW-MRI) at baseline as assessed by ADC [Baseline]

    7. Change from baseline to degree of pancreatic injury/inflammation through DW-MRI following 12 weeks of treatment with evinacumab as assessed by ADC [Week 12]

    8. Change from baseline to degree of pancreatic injury/inflammation through DW-MRI following 24 weeks of treatment with evinacumab as assessed by ADC [Week 24]

    9. Total evinacumab concentration in serum [Up to 48 weeks]

    10. Total ANGPTL3 concentrations [Up to 48 weeks]

    11. Incidence of anti-drug antibody (ADA) [Up to 48 weeks]

    12. Incidence of Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) [Up to 48 weeks]

    13. Incidence of serious adverse events (SAEs) [Up to 48 weeks]

    14. Incidence of laboratory abnormalities [Up to 48 weeks]
