Inclution Criteria
Subject eligibility should be reviewed and documented by an appropriately qualified member of the investigator’s study team before subjects are included in the study.
Subjects must meet all of the following inclusion criteria to be eligible for enrollment into the study:1. Evidence of a personally signed and dated informed consent document indicating that the
subject (or a legal representative) has been informed of all pertinent aspects of the study.
2. Subjects who are willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan,
laboratory tests, and other study procedures.
3. Males and females 18 years of age.
4. With primary hyperlipidemia or mixed dyslipidemia.
5. Subjects are required to be treated with atorvastatin, simvastatin, or rosuvastatin at the
highest locally approved dose. If at a lower dose, there must be documentation that the

Subjects on simvastatin 80 mg must have been on this dose for >1 year before
screening.
All subjects must be on a stable dose at least 6 weeks prior to screening. There
should be no plans at the time of screening and randomization to modify the dose
of statin for the duration of the trial.
Source records and case report form (CRF) must show documentation of the
requirements shown above..
6. Subjects should be at high or very high risk of incurring a CV event, defined as:
a. Known CVD or CVD risk equivalents:

Coronary heart disease: history of acute myocardial infarction, evidence of silent
myocardial infarction or myocardial ischemia, history of unstable angina and
stable angina pectoris, and history of coronary procedures (coronary angioplasty
and coronary artery surgery), or;
Other clinical atherosclerotic diseases: peripheral arterial disease, abdominal
aortic aneurysm, carotid artery disease (symptomatic [eg, transient ischemic
attack or stroke of carotid origin] or >50 percent stenosis on angiography or
ultrasound), and likely other forms of clinical atherosclerotic disease (eg, renal
artery disease),
or;
Type 2 or Type 1 diabetes, or;
Chronic kidney disease (CKD), defined as glomerular filtration rate (GFR) calculated
by Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formula between 30 and
60 mL/min/1.73m2
(inclusive).

randomization 3
.
8. Male and female subjects of childbearing potential must agree to use a highly effective
method of contraception throughout the study and for at least 63 days after the last dose
of assigned treatment. A subject is of childbearing potential if, in the opinion of the
investigator, he/she is biologically capable of having children and is sexually active
(Section 4.4.2).
Female subjects who are not of childbearing potential (ie, meet at least one of the
following criteria):
Have undergone a documented hysterectomy and/or bilateral oophorectomy;
Have medically confirmed ovarian failure or;
Achieved post-menopausal status, defined as: cessation of regular menses for at
least 12 consecutive months with no alternative pathological or physiological
cause; and have a serum follicule-stimulating hormone(FSH) level within the
laboratory’s reference range for postmenopausal females.
Exclusion Criteria
Subjects presenting with any of the following will not be included in the study:
1. Subjects who are investigational site staff members directly involved in the conduct of
the trial and their family members, site staff members otherwise supervised by the
Investigator, or subjects who are Pfizer employees directly involved in the conduct of the
trial.
2. Participation in other studies involving small molecule investigational drug(s)
(Phases 1-4) within 1 month except for cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP)
inhibitors (indefinitely), or biological agents within 6 months or 5 half lives, whichever is
longer before the current study begins and/or during study participation (the investigator
should refer to documents provided by the subject on the other study to determine the
investigational product half life). If the blind has been broken and the Investigator knows
(with documentation) that the subject received placebo, he/she can be included.
3. Subjects with prior exposure to PF-04950615 or other investigational PCSK9 inhibitor.
