Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Subject incidence of treatment emergent adverse events [ Time Frame: 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
    Subject incidence of treatment emergent adverse events


Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Percent change in low density lipoprotein-cholesterol [ Time Frame: Every scheduled visit over 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Percent change in low density lipoprotein-cholesterol from baseline open label at each scheduled visit

  • Percent change in non-high density lipoprotein-cholesterol [ Time Frame: Every scheduled visit over 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Percent change in non-high density lipoprotein- cholesterol from baseline open label at each scheduled visit

  • Percent change in apolipoprotein B [ Time Frame: Every scheduled visit over 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Percent change in apolipoprotein B from baseline open label at each scheduled visit

  • Percent change in total cholesterol/high density lipoprotein-cholesterol ratio [ Time Frame: Every scheduled visit over 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Percent change in total cholesterol/high density lipoprotein-cholesterol ratio from baseline open label at each scheduled visit

  • Percent change in apolipoprotein B/apolipoprotein A1 ratio [ Time Frame: Every scheduled visit over 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Percent change in apolipoprotein B/apolipoprotein A1 ratio from baseline open label at each scheduled visit
