TA-8995: Its Use in Patients With Mild Dyslipidaemia (TULIP)

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of different doses of TA-8995, a cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) inhibitor, on the elevation of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and reduction of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), alone and in combination with statin therapy.

The secondary objectives of this study are to determine the safety and tolerability of TA-8995 in patients with mild dyslipidaemia.
