Inhibition of cholesteryl ester transfer protein with evacetrapib may provide an additional treatment option for patients who do not reach their low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) goal with statins or patients who cannot tolerate statins.Methods and Results:This multicenter, randomized, 12-week, double-blind, parallel group, placebo-controlled, outpatient, phase 3 study evaluated the efficacy of evacetrapib in reducing LDL-C in 54 Japanese patients (27 evacetrapib, 27 placebo) with primary hypercholesterolemia. Primary efficacy measure was the percent change from baseline to week 12 in LDL-C (β quantification). Treatment with evacetrapib 130 mg once daily for 12 weeks resulted in statistically significant (P&lt;0.001) change in LDL-C (β quantification) compared with placebo. Least-squares mean percentage changes from baseline were -34.3% in the evacetrapib group vs. 0.0% in the placebo group. Treatment with evacetrapib 130 mg also resulted in a statistically significant (P&lt;0.001) increase in high-density lipoprotein cholesterol compared with placebo in mean percent change from baseline, with a least-squares mean difference of 124.0% (95% confidence interval: 104.6-143.5). No deaths, serious adverse events, or discontinuations because of adverse events were reported; 5 patients (18.5%) in the evacetrapib group and 7 patients (26.9%) in the placebo group experienced treatment-emergent adverse events.
