Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting
Positive signals in HDL-C/HDL-P and early TG reductions plus solid safety can support upside if confirmed in larger trials; however, 24-week liver fat and weight data were not statistically significant, tempering upside without a confirmatory Phase 2/3 readout.
