Primary Outcome Measures:
- The primary objectives of the study are to assess the non-HDL cholesterol and triglyceride lowering efficacy as well as the HDL cholesterol increasing efficacy of LCP AtorFen versus atorvastatin. [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- The secondary objectives of the study are to assess the non-HDL and LDL cholesterol lowering efficacy as well as the HDL cholesterol increasing efficacy of LCP-AtorFen versus fenofibrate. [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]

Detailed Description:
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, 12 week study with a 52-week open-label follow-up to evaluate the safety and efficacy of LCP-AtorFen (the combination of atorvastatin and fenofibrate) in the treatment of hyperlipidemia.
After a wash-out phase, eligible patients will be randomized on a 1:1:1 ratio to either LCP-AtorFen, atorvastatin or fenofibrate for 12 weeks. After the completion of the 12-week phase, all eligible patients will be offered to receive open-label LCP-AtorFen for another 52 weeks.
Eligibility| Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Senior) |

- Subject may be currently on a statin or other lipid-lowering therapy but must be willing and able to washout for 8 weeks if on a fibrate or high-dose niacin, 6 weeks if on a statin or low-dose niacin per day, or 4 weeks if on a bile acid sequestrant, ezetimibe, or >1000 mg of fish oil per day.
- Other inclusion criteria might apply
Exclusion Criteria:
- TGs > 500 mg/dL.
- History of coronary heart disease (CHD), transient ischemic attacks, stroke or revascularization procedure in the six months prior.
- Presence of an aortic aneurysm or resection of an aortic aneurysm within six months.
- Poorly controlled diabetes mellitus (glycosylated hemoglobin >8.0% )or diabetes mellitus requiring insulin therapy.
- Known lipoprotein lipase impairment or deficiency or Apo C-II deficiency or familial dysbetalipoproteinemia.
- History of pancreatitis.
- Known allergy or sensitivity to statins or fibrates.
- Poorly controlled hypertension.
