Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Percentage change in LDL-C levels from baseline to Week 12 [ Time Frame: Week 12 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Percentage of subjects with low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels of <100 mg/dL (LDL-C responders) at Week 12 [ Time Frame: Week 12 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Percentage change from baseline in TC, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglycerides, and high sensitivity C-reactive protein at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 [ Time Frame: Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Adverse events at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 [ Time Frame: Baseline and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Clinical laboratory changes at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 [ Time Frame: Screening and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Vital signs at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 [ Time Frame: Screening and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Percentage change in LDL-C levels from baseline at Weeks 4 and 8 [ Time Frame: Weeks 4 and 8 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Percentage of LDL-C responders at Weeks 4 and 8 [ Time Frame: Weeks 4 and 8 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Percentage of subjects with total cholesterol (TC) levels of <160 mg/dL (TC responders) at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 [ Time Frame: Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
