Summary

The primary purpose of this study is to test the effect and safety of once daily ABT-335 on the thickness of the lining of the carotid artery (a blood vessel to the brain) in patients with abnormal blood lipids who have optimal levels of low density lipoprotein cholesterol ("bad cholesterol") after taking atorvastatin.
