  • C.Have history of primary hypercholesterolemia and total fasting cholesterol above 5.0mmol/L at screening;
  • D.Have any symptoms associated with OA of the knee for at least 6 months prior to screening visit and confirmation of OA based on the clinical and radiological criteria of American College of Rheumatology Criteria for OA (Altman et al, 1986) of the knee prior or at screening.
