EXPERIMENTALInterventions
Participants from 01-04-TL-475-008 Monotherapy Study: Lapaquistat acetate 100 mg, tablets, orally, once daily for up to 48 weeks.
Participants from 01-04-TL-475-009 Atorvastatin Add-on Study: Lapaquistat acetate 100 mg, tablets, orally, once daily and current Atorvastatin therapy for up to 4 weeks.

- Females of childbearing potential who are sexually active must agree to use a medically accepted means of contraception, and can neither be pregnant nor lactating from Screening throughout the duration of the study.
- Has clinical laboratory evaluations within reference range for the testing laboratory at the previous visit in study 01-04-TL-475-008 or 01-04-TL-475-009 unless the results were deemed not clinically significant by the investigator or sponsor.
- Is willing and able to comply with a standardized low cholesterol diet.
- Is willing to continue taking the protocol-specified companion lipid-altering medication from the previous study (if applicable) for at least the first 4 weeks.
You may not qualify if:
- Has an alanine aminotransferase or aspartate aminotransferase level greater than or equal to 3 times the upper limit of normal at the previous visit in the prior study, active liver disease, or jaundice.

- Has an endocrine disorder, such as Cushing's syndrome, hyperthyroidism, or inappropriately treated hypothyroidism, affecting lipid metabolism.
- Has a positive hepatitis B surface antigen, or hepatitis C virus antibody, as determined by medical history and/or participant's verbal report.
- Has a positive human immunodeficiency virus status or was taking antiretroviral medications, as determined by medical history and/or subject's verbal report.
- Has a known hypersensitivity to lapaquistat acetate.
- Has a history or presence of clinically significant food allergy that prevented them from maintaining Therapeutic Lifestyle Change (or equivalent) diet.
- Has a known homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia or known Type III hyperlipoproteinemia.
