Brief summary
This study will test whether darapladib can safely lower the chances of having a cardiovascular event (such as a heart attack or urgent coronary revascularization (e.g. medical procedures performed to restore the normal blood flow in patients with atherosclerosis)) when treatment is started within 30 days after an acute coronary syndrome (also called ACS).
Detailed description
Subjects who qualify for the study will be randomized 1:1 to either darapladib or placebo administered in addition to standard therapy. Following the baseline visit, subjects will be expected to return for clinic visits at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and every 6 months until the end of the study.
