Conditions

Dyslipidemia, Type2 Diabetes

Brief summary

The primary objective of the study is to determine whether pemafibrate administered twice daily will delay the time to first occurrence of any component of the clinical composite endpoint of: * nonfatal Myocardial Infarction (MI) * nonfatal ischemic stroke * coronary revascularization; or * Cardio Vascular (CV) death.

Detailed description

A multi-regional clinical trial with participating sites in the following countries. India is being conducted under a previous protocol version due to regulatory requirements. * Argentina * Brazil * Bulgaria * Canada * Colombia * Czech Republic * Denmark * France * Germany * Hungary * India * Israel * Japan * Mexico * Netherlands * Poland * Romania * Russian Federation * Slovakia * South Africa * Spain * Ukraine * United Kingdom * United States

Pre-assignment details

Prior to treatment, participants attended a Prescreening Visit, a Screening/Enrollment Visit and a Placebo Run-In Period. Eligible subjects who were compliant with study treatment during the Placebo Run-In Period returned for the Randomization Visit, at which time they were randomly allocated to receive either pemafibrate or a matching placebo tablet.
