Type II Hyperlipidemia
Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of two dose levels of JTT-705 when co-administered with pravastatin 40 mg on HDL-C and LDL-C and the inhibition rate of CETP activity and to document short term safety.
Interventions
* JTT-705 300 mg tablets, 600 mg dose, 2 tablets, oral, once daily, immediately following breakfast and/or assessment * Pravastatin 40 mg tablets, 40 mg dose, one tablet, oral, once daily, at bedtime
* JTT-705 300 mg tablets, 300 mg dose, 1 tablet, oral, once daily, immediately following breakfast and/or assessment * Placebo tablets, one tablet, oral, once daily, immediately following breakfast and/or assessments * Pravastatin 40 mg tablets, 40 mg dose, one tablet, oral, once daily, at bedtime
* Placebo tablets, 2 tablets, oral, once daily, immediately following breakfast and/or assessments * Pravastatin 40 mg tablets, 40 mg dose, one tablet, oral, once daily, at bedtime
