Change in basal insulin regimen >20% within 3 months prior to screening or during the screening period. 4. For participants with type 1 diabetes: episode of diabetic ketoacidosis, or ≥3 episodes of severe hypoglycemia within 6 months prior to screening or during the screening period. 2. History of bleeding, diathesis, or coagulopathy. 3. Major surgery within 3 months of screening. 4. Plasma apheresis within 4 weeks prior to screening or planned during the study. 5. Treatment with another investigational drug, biological agent, or device within one month of screening, or 5 half-lives of investigational agent, whichever is longer. 6. Active pancreatitis within 4 weeks prior to screening or during the screening period. 7. Malignancy diagnosed or treated within 5 years prior to screening or during the screening period.

Experimental Cohort 1 |
Participants aged 12 to <18 years will receive multiple doses of olezarsen, at a dose level that depends on body weight, once every month by subcutaneous injection for up to 1 year. All participants may continue to the optional 1-year long-term extension period with the last dose received being after 2 years of treatment. |

Experimental Cohort 2 |
Participants aged 2 to <12 years will receive multiple doses of olezarsen, at a dose level based on information obtained from Cohort 1, once every month by subcutaneous injection for up to 1 year. All participants may continue to the optional 1-year long-term extension period with the last dose received being after 2 years of treatment. |

Detailed Description
This is a Phase 3 multi-center open-label study to evaluate safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), efficacy, and pharmacodynamics (PD) of olezarsen in pediatric participants (aged 2 to less than (<)18 years) with FCS. This study consists of three to four periods with the following approximate timeframes: 1-month screening period, 1-year treatment period, an optional 1-year long-term extension treatment period, and a 3-month post-treatment follow-up period.
