Participant Flow

First Patient In: 30-Jul-2007 Last Patient Last Visit: 10-Jul-2008 Investigators: 161 sites participated: Australia-5; Austria-4; Canada-11; Czech Republic-5; Denmark-4; France-10; Germany-24; Hungary-6; Israel-4; Italy-11; Netherlands-2; Norway-10; Poland-11; Russian Federation-7; South Africa-9; Spain-4; Sweden-17; United States-17

Patients on atorvastatin (10mg) or simvastatin (10mg or 20mg) had a 2 week run-in of their statin. Naïve patients or patients on other statins were started on simvastatin (10 or 20mg) or atorvastatin (10mg) for a 6 week run-in. Patients were eligible to be randomized if their Visit 1 low density lipoprotein cholesterol values were above goal.
