Abstract
Background: Genetic loss-of-function variants in ANGPTL3 are associated with lower levels of plasma lipids. Vupanorsen is a hepatically targeted antisense oligonucleotide that inhibits Angiopoietin-like 3 (ANGPTL3) protein synthesis. Methods: Adults with non–high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) ≥100 mg/dL and triglycerides 150 to 500 mg/dL on statin therapy were randomized in a double-blind fashion to placebo or 1 of 7 vupanorsen dose regimens (80, 120, or 160 mg SC every 4 weeks, or 60, 80, 120, or 160 mg SC every 2 weeks). The primary end point was placebo-adjusted percentage change from baseline in non–HDL-C at 24 weeks. Secondary end points included placebo-adjusted percentage changes from baseline in triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), apolipoprotein B (ApoB), and ANGPTL3. Results: Two hundred eighty-six subjects were randomized: 44 to placebo and 242 to vupanorsen. The median age was 64 (interquartile range, 58–69) years, 44% were female, the median non–HDL-C was 132.4 (interquartile range, 118.0–154.1) mg/dL, and the median triglycerides were 216.2 (interquartile range, 181.4–270.4) mg/dL. Vupanorsen resulted in significant decreases from baseline over placebo in non–HDL-C ranging from 22.0% in the 60 mg every 2 weeks arm to 27.7% in the 80 mg every 2 weeks arm (all P <0.001 for all doses). There were dose-dependent reductions in triglycerides that ranged from 41.3% to 56.8% (all P <0.001). The effects on LDL-C and ApoB were more modest (7.9%–16.0% and 6.0%–15.1%, respectively) and without a clear dose-response relationship‚ and only the higher reductions achieved statistical significance. ANGPTL3 levels were decreased in a dose-dependent manner by 69.9% to 95.2% (all P <0.001). There were no confirmed instances of significant decline in renal function or platelet count with vupanorsen. Injection site reactions and >3× elevations of alanine aminotransferase or aspartate aminotransferase were more common at higher total monthly doses (up to 33.3% and 44.4%, respectively), and there was a dose-dependent increase in hepatic fat fraction (up to 76%). Conclusions: Vupanorsen administered at monthly equivalent doses from 80 to 320 mg significantly reduced non–HDL-C and additional lipid parameters. Injection site reactions and liver enzyme elevations were more frequent at higher doses, and there was a dose-dependent increase in hepatic fat fraction.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
