Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Lipid Panel ControlFrom Visit 1 entrance evaluation (Week 0) to Visit 2 (between Weeks 8-22)Lipid Panel Control was defined as achieving target for one or more of the following parameters: low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) at goal (\<100mg/dL), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) within normal range (40mg/dL for males and 50mg/dL for females), and/or triglycerides within normal range (≤ 150mg/dL).

Outcome results

Primary

Number of Participants With Lipid Panel Control

Lipid Panel Control was defined as achieving target for one or more of the following parameters: low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) at goal (\<100mg/dL), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) within normal range (40mg/dL for males and 50mg/dL for females), and/or triglycerides within normal range (≤ 150mg/dL).

Time frame: From Visit 1 entrance evaluation (Week 0) to Visit 2 (between Weeks 8-22)

Population: Results are for the Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population. Information regarding the participation in a disease management program was not reported for 63 participants in the ITT Population.
