Primary outcomePrimary: Percent Change From Baseline in Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C) at Week 12 — -3.71; 4.54; -14.26; -40.98 percent change — p=<0.001
Summary
The primary objective was to evaluate the effect of 12 weeks of subcutaneous evolocumab (AMG 145) every 2 weeks (Q2W) or every 4 weeks (Q4W), compared with placebo, on the percent change from baseline in LDL-C when used as monotherapy in adults with hypercholesterolemia.
