| Main Objective: To evaluate the effect of dalcetrapib treatment for 2 years on atherosclerotic disease progression - as assessed by coronary intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and carotid B-mode ultrasound - in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). ;Secondary Objective: To evaluate the effect of dalcetrapib treatment for 2 years on atherosclerotic disease progression - as assessed by Coronary Angiography – in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). To explore the effect of dalcetrapib on lipid metabolism and biomarkers of inflammation, oxidation and cardiovascular risk. To evaluate the long-term safety profile of dalcetrapib. ;Primary end point(s): There are two co-primary endpoints, for the assessment of atherosclerotic disease progression based on the two modes of measuring atherosclerotic plaque, they are defined for a patient as: Nominal change from baseline to study end in coronary percent atheroma volume (PAV) of the target coronary artery assessed by IVUS. Rate of change from baseline to study end in carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) using B-mode ultrasound. Nominal changes from baseline to study end in coronary artery score and cumulative coronary stenosis score as assessed by quantitative coronary angiography. | — |
