Adult male or female subjects (non-pregnant and non-lactating) who are at least 18 years of age, who meet the following lipid criteria:
• Prior to Randomization, the subject must have a mean LDL-C =100 mg/dL (2.59 mmol/L) for 2 consecutive samples (at least 1 week apart). The difference between the two individual LDL-C values must not exceed 15% of the higher value
• Prior to Randomization, the subject must have mean triglycerides =400 mg/dL (4.52 mmol/L) for 2 consecutive samples (at least 1 week apart). The upper value for either sample must be =450 mg/dL (5.1 mmol/L)
The subject must be taking the highest recommended dose of an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor once daily for at least 4 weeks prior to Visit 1. Subjects who are on a stable regimen of ezetimibe, in addition to their HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor will be allowed to participate in the study while continuing the ezetimibe.
