Brief summary

The primary objective was to evaluate the effect of 12 weeks of subcutaneous evolocumab (AMG 145), compared with ezetimibe, on percent change from baseline in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in patients with hypercholesterolemia unable to tolerate an effective dose of a statin.

Participant flow

Recruitment details

The study enrolled adults aged 18 to 75 years with hypercholesterolemia who were statin intolerant and with low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels above risk-based goals recommended by the National Cholesterol Education Program. The first patient enrolled on 28 July 2011; last patient enrolled 14 February 2012.

Pre-assignment details

Randomization was stratified by screening LDL-C level (\< 130 mg/dL \[3.4 mmol/L\] or ≥ 130 mg/dL) and statin use at baseline (yes or no).
