LAPLACE-TIMI 57: Low-density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C) Assessment With PCSK9 monoclonaL Antibody Inhibition Combined With Statin thErapy

To evaluate the effect of 12 weeks of subcutaneous (SC) evolocumab (AMG 145) administered every 2 weeks (Q2W) or every 4 weeks (Q4W), compared with placebo, on percent change from baseline in LDL-C when used in addition to a statin in adults with hypercholesterolemia.
