Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the dose-related effect of treatment with rosuvastatin on production and fractional catabolism of apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) and apolipoprotein A-II (apoA-II), and on the plasma apoA-I, apoA-II and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) concentration.
