About this trial

This is an open-label, single-arm, dose-escalation Phase I clinical trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamics (PD), and pharmacokinetics (PK) of CS-121, an in vivo base editing therapy delivered by lipid nanoparticles targeting APOC3, in adult participants (18-55 years) with familial chylomicronemia syndrome (FCS).
