Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Patients will be selected for V1 based on the biological values (not older than 6 months) of LDL-C, HDL-C and TG in their medical files. A patient will be eligible for study participation if he/she meets the following criteria at randomisation (V2): 1. Both genders, from 18 to 70 years old, 2. Presenting with type IIb dyslipidemia, as evidenced by: • LDL-C >or= 160 mg/dL (>or= 4.15 mmol/L) • TG >or= 150 mg/dL (>or= 1.7 mmol/L), and 102 cm, women >88cm • HDL cholesterol: men =65 years) yes F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: A patient will be excluded from the study if he/she meets any of the following criteria at V2: 1.

Women who are not surgically sterilized or not using adequate contraceptive precautions or not postmenopausal 3. Pregnant or lactating women 4. Having received an investigational drug or vaccine in the last 30 days before date of inclusion, or still participating in such a trial at V1 Associated diseases or conditions: 5. Type 1 or type 2 diabetes (fasting plasma glucose = 7 mmol/L) 6. Current chronic pancreatitis or identified risk or known history of acute pancreatitis 7. Known cholelithiasis in absence of cholecystectomy 8. Known gastric or peptic ulcer or intestinal disease within the previous 3 months of randomisation capable of modifying the intestinal absorption of the drugs 9.

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To demonstrate, in patients with type IIb dyslipidemia and features of the metabolic syndrome, the clinical advantage of 145mg NanoCrystal® fenofibrate over 10mg ezetimibe on plasma triglycerides (TG) and HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) levels.;Secondary Objective: To compare the efficacy of 145mg NanoCrystal® fenofibrate, 10mg ezetimibe and combined therapy (145mg NanoCrystal® fenofibrate + 10mg ezetimibe) from baseline to 12 weeks treatment on Total Cholesterol, LDL-Cholesterol, HDL-Cholesterol, Triglycerides, Non HDL-Cholesterol, LDL size, Remnant Like Particles Cholesterol (RLP-C), Apo AI, Apo AII, Apo B, hs CRP, Fasting plasma Glucose and Insulin, HOMA-IR. To assess the safety of 145mg NanoCrystal® fenofibrate, 10mg ezetimibe and combined therapy after 12 weeks of treatment.;Primary end point(s): Percent change in TG and HDL-C from baseline to 12 weeks treatment between 145mg NanoCrystal® fenofibrate and 10mg ezetimibe.
