Summary

This study will evaluate whether fasting/postprandial serum ApoB-48 levels are increased in diabetic participants compared to nondiabetic participants with the same range of serum LDL-C levels, and whether ApoB-48 levels can be used, along with LDL-C levels, to identify potential cardiovascular disease risk.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion criteria

  • Participant has an LDL-C ranging from ≥100 mg/dL to <160 mg/dL.
  • Patient has a triglyceride (TG) level of ≤500 mg/dL.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Participant treated with a lipid-lowering agent in the 6 weeks prior to Visit 1 (screening period).
  • Participant has active liver disease or persistent unexplained serum transaminase elevations (≥2 x the upper limit of normal [ULN])
  • Participant has increased creatine kinase (CK) (≥2 x ULN).
  • Participant has a history of type 1 diabetes mellitus, ketoacidosis, or gestational diabetes mellitus.
  • Participant has a history of alcohol and/or drug abuse.
