Goal Achievement After Utilizing an Anti-PCSK9 Antibody in Statin Intolerant Subjects -2

Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Hyperlipidemia
Interventions
Drug: Placebo to Evolocumab
Biological: Evolocumab
Drug: Placebo to Ezetimibe
Drug: Ezetimibe
Registration Number
NCT01763905
Lead Sponsor
Amgen
Brief Summary

The primary objective was to evaluate the effect of 12 weeks of subcutaneous (SC) evolocumab every 2 weeks (Q2W) and monthly (QM), compared with ezetimibe, on percent change from baseline in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in hypercholesterolemic adults unable to tolerate an effective dose of a statin (HMG-CoA (5-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A) reductase inhibitors).
