Participant Flow

Participants completed a 6-8 week washout then completed a 2-week placebo run-in prior to the start of active treatment. Includes 6 participants who had an adverse event that began during the placebo run-in but did not lead to discontinuation until after randomization in Period I or II.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline (Week 4 for Period II; Week 12 for Period III) and after 8 weeks of treatment during each period (Week 12 for Period II and Week 20 for Period III)

Population: Participants who completed the study and had respective endpoint data available at baseline and end of each treatment period. End of period value was defined as measurements collected on the same date as the corresponding end of period visit date. Results were reported by dose of study drug taken and not by randomly assigned sequence.

Blood samples taken at baseline (Week 4 for Period II; Week 12 for Period III) and after 8 weeks of treatment during each period to determine the LDL-C levels. The change from baseline after 8 weeks of treatment was recorded.

Population: All participants who received at least 1 dose of study drug. Safety analysis was based on the experiences accumulated during Periods I/II combined (pre-crossover), where the study follows a parallel design. A separate safety analysis was performed for Period III (post-crossover).

Participants had AST and ALT levels assessed during Period I (4 weeks ) throughout each 8 week treatment period (20 weeks total). Participants who had an assessment of either AST or ALT that was 3 x ULN or greater were recorded. The AST ULNs for males and females were 43 U/L and 36 U/L, respectively. The ALT ULNs for males and females were 40 U/L and 33 U/L, respectively.

Safety analysis was based on the experiences accumulated during Periods I/II combined (pre-crossover), where the study follows a parallel design. A separate safety analysis was performed for Period III (post-crossover).

Participants had fasting glucose levels assessed during Period I (4 weeks ) throughout each 8 week treatment period (20 weeks total). Participants who had the new diagnosis of impaired fasting blood glucose were recorded. A pre-defined set of MedDRA terms was used to identify participants whose glycemic status became 'impaired' during the course of treatment (from clinical adverse experience reports). The MedDRA terms were as follows: blood glucose increased, blood glucose abnormal, glucose tolerance decreased, glucose tolerance test abnormal, carbohydrate tolerance decreased, glucose tolerance impaired, hyperglycaemia, impaired fasting glucose, impaired insulin secretion, metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, insulin resistance syndrome.

Safety analysis was based on the experiences accumulated during Periods I/II combined (pre-crossover), where the study follows a parallel design. A separate safety analysis was performed for Period III (post-crossover).

Participants who with newly diagnosed of diabetes were recorded. A participant was classified as having new onset diabetes if they experienced an adverse Event (AE) related to a diagnosis of diabetes (based on a pre-defined set of Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities \[MedDRA\] terms), or if they started taking an anti-diabetic medication during the course of the study. The MedDRA terms were as follows: diabetes mellitus, diabetes mellitus insulin-dependent, diabetes mellitus non-insulin dependent, insulin-requiring type II diabetes mellitus, insulin resistant diabetes, diabetes with hyperosmolarity, latent autoimmune diabetes in adults.

An AE was defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the product, whether or not considered related to the use of the product. Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a preexisting condition which was temporally associated with the use of the product, was also an AE. A clinical AE was an AE reported as a result of a clinical examination or reported by the participant.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline (Day1 of Period I) and Week 4

Population: Participants that completed the study and had respective endpoint data available at baseline and end of each treatment period. End of period value was defined as measurements collected on the same date as the corresponding end of period visit date. Results were reported by dose of study drug taken and not by randomly assigned sequence.

Blood samples taken at baseline (Day1 of Period I) and after 4 weeks of treatment to determine the HDL-C levels. The change from baseline after 4 weeks of treatment was recorded.
