A Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Multicenter Study to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of Evolocumab (AMG 145) on LDL-C in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Hypercholesterolemia/Mixed Dyslipidemia
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of 12 weeks of subcutaneous evolocumab taken monthly compared with subcutaneous placebo taken monthly on low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus and high blood cholesterol on a maximally tolerated oral dose of statin of at least moderate-intensity.
This study will enroll adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus and elevated LDL-C or non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) levels on a stable, maximally tolerated statin dose of at least moderate-intensity at signing of the informed consent; statin therapy must remain unchanged during screening and the remainder of the study.
