To describe the changes in other lipid parameters. To evaluate the plasma exposure of GFT505 after repeated once daily administrations of GFT505. |

Known history of infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or hepatitis B or C 8. Known history of malignant disease (excluding treated basal cell carcinoma) 9. Patients who have serious or unstable medical or psychological conditions which, in the opinion of the Investigator, would lead the patient to be non-compliant or uncooperative during the study or would compromise the patient’s safety or successful participation in the study 10. Patients who have donated blood or blood products within the previous month prior to screening or who plan to donate blood or blood products at any time during the trial and in the 3 months following the end of the study 11. The Patient is a female of childbearing potential, is pregnant or lactating 12. Any medication that may interfere with study medication absorption, distribution, metabolism or excretion or could lead to induction or inhibition of microsomial enzymes within 3 months prior to the screening day 13. Currently taking other investigational drugs or have taken part in a clinical trial within the previous month prior to screening 14. Known intolerance or contra-indication to the list of excipients of GFT505 (Gelatin, Lactose, Glycerol, Titanium dioxide, Red Iron dioxide) 15. Patient not covered by Health Insurance System and / or not in compliance with the recommendations of National Law in force 16. Patient who cannot be contacted in case of emergency 17. Uncontrolled hypothyroidism defined as TSH > 2 x the upper limit of normal (ULN) at V2 (thyroid dysfunction controlled for at least 6 months prior to screening is permitted) 18. Significant renal disease, including nephritic syndrome, chronic renal failure and/or serum creatinine >180µmol/L at V2 19. Active liver disease or hepatic dysfunction as defined by elevations in liver enzymes [alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), gamma glutamyltransferase (GGT) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP)] > 2 x the upper limit of normal (ULN) at V2 20. Unexplained serum creatine kinase (CPK) > 3 x the upper limit of normal (ULN) at V2. Patients with a reason for CPK elevation may continue in screening and have the measurement repeated prior to randomization; a repeat CPK > 3 x ULN is exclusionary 21. Patient for whom the wash-out period of lipid-regulating drugs (fibrates, statins and other classes of lipid-regulating drugs) has not been respected or who has taken any other drug that is known to affect the lipid metabolism |
