Brief summary

This is a phase 1 study in otherwise healthy participants with high LDL cholesterol. Following multiple doses of LY3015014, the safety and tolerability of the drug, how the body handles the drug, and the drug's effect on the body will be evaluated. Participants will participate in the study for approximately 3 months not including screening. Screening is required within 42 days prior to the start of the study.
