Objectives

main purpose: (1) The efficacy of MK-0616 compared with placebo was evaluated based on the average percentage change in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) from the base period to week 24. (2) Evaluate the safety and tolerability of MK-0616. Secondary purpose: (1) Evaluate the efficacy of MK-0616 compared with placebo based on the average percentage change in LDL-C from the baseline period to week 52. (2) Evaluate the efficacy of MK-0616 compared to placebo based on the average percentage change in non-HDL-C from the baseline period to week 24. (3) Evaluate the efficacy of MK-0616 compared to placebo based on the average percentage change in apolipoprotein B (ApoB) from the base period to week 24. (4) Evaluate the efficacy of MK-0616 compared to placebo based on the average percentage change in lipoprotein a (Lp(a)) from the base period to week 24. (5) Evaluate the efficacy of MK-0616 compared with placebo in terms of the proportion of subjects with LDL-C <70 mg/dL at week 24 and a decrease of ?50% from the base period. (6) Evaluate the efficacy of MK-0616 compared with placebo in terms of the proportion of subjects with LDL-C <55 mg/dL and a ?50% decrease from the base period at week 24.
