Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Diagnosis of dysbetalipoproteinemia defined as VLDL-C/VLDL-TG mass ratio >0.35 at Visit 2 or the concurrence of mixed hyperlipidemia (fasting TC ≥ 200mg/dL, fasting TG ≥ 200mg/dL at Visits 2 and 3) and a genotype of ApoE published to be associated with dysbetalipoproteinemia

Exclusion Criteria:
