Implication

LpL-targeted therapies for hypertriglyceridemia merit prospective trials; should not yet change practice.

Population

Patients with primary hypertriglyceridemia

Intervention

Therapies targeting lipoprotein lipase (LpL) or its cofactors (e.g., antisense Apo-CIII, LpL gene therapy, NO-1886)

This review highlights the importance of lipoprotein lipase in triglyceride metabolism and outlines emerging therapies targeting this pathway for hypertriglyceridemia.
