Weight, total cholesterol (TC) and triglyceride (TG) depicted are at the beginning of the diet period. In Study 1, 21% milkfat/1.25% cholesterol diet started at −4 week and switched to 0.5 % HC-diet at −2 week before the infusion of IK17-Fab (0 week); In study 2, adenovirus gene therapy started one week before 1.25 % HC-diet feeding (0 week). Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. No statistically significant differences were noted in total cholesterol levels between groups at each timepoint in both studies.
