A Study to Evaluate Tolerability and Efficacy of Evolocumab (AMG 145) in Japanese Subjects

Phase 2

Completed

• Conditions: Hypercholesterolemia and High Risk for Cardiovascular Events

• Registration Number: NCT01652703
• Lead Sponsor: Amgen

Brief Summary

The primary objective is to evaluate the effect of 12 weeks of subcutaneous evolocumab every 2 weeks or every 4 weeks, compared with placebo, on percent change from baseline in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) when used in addition to statin therapy in Japanese adults with hypercholesterolemia and high cardiovascular risk.
