Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percentage Change in Low-density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C) (mg/dL) From Baseline at Day 150 - Core Analysis: Core Part

    Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol is a type of lipoprotein in the blood. Lipoproteins are particles made of lipids(fats) and proteins that carry fats through the bloodstream. Because of their structure, fats can't move through the blood on their own. So, lipoproteins carry fats to various cells in the body.

    Baseline, Day 150

Secondary Outcomes (22)

  • Absolute Change in LDL-C (mg/dL) From Baseline at Day 150 - Core Analysis: Core Part

    Baseline, Day 150

  • Absolute Change in PCSK9 (ng/mL) From Baseline at Day 150 - Core Analysis: Core Part
