Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange From Baseline to End of Study (Week 104) in Percent Atheroma Volume (PAV)End of study (Week 104)
Change in PAV computed as PAV(Week 104)-PAV(baseline) where PAV is calculated as: \[sum(EEMcsa-LUMENcsa)/sum EEMcsa\]\*100 where EEMcsa is the cross-sectional area of the external elastic membrane and LUMENcsa is the cross-sectional area of the lumen, as measured by intravascular ultrasound IVUS of a coronary artery in patients with CAD.
SecondaryNumbers of Patients Showing Regression in PAVEnd of study (Week 104)Regression defined as a change from baseline in PAV \< 0
SecondaryChange From Baseline to End of Study (Week 104) in Total Atheroma Volume (TAV)End of study (Week 104)
Change in TAV, as measured by IVUS, computed as TAV(Week 104)-TAV(baseline) where TAV is the sum(EEMcsa-LUMENcsa)/n. n is the number of cross-sections measured. TAV for each patient is calculated as the average area of atheroma per cross-section multiplied by the median number of cross-sections measured for all patients in the analysis population.
SecondaryNumbers of Patients Showing Regression in TAVEnd of study (Week 104)Regression defined as a change from baseline in TAV \< 0
SecondaryTotal Cholesterol Blood Level104 weeks
Time-weighted average is calculated as the lipid value times the number of days since last lipid assessment, summed for all and divided by the number of days from Part B randomization to date of the last lipid evaluation.
SecondaryLDL-C Blood Level104 weeks
Time-weighted average is calculated as the lipid value times the number of days since last lipid assessment, summed for all and divided by the number of days from Part B randomization to date of the last lipid evaluation.
SecondaryHDL-C Blood Level104 weeks
Time-weighted average is calculated as the lipid value times the number of days since last lipid assessment, summed for all and divided by the number of days from Part B randomization to date of the last lipid evaluation.
SecondaryTriglycerides Blood Level104 weeks
Time-weighted average is calculated as the lipid value times the number of days since last lipid assessment, summed for all and divided by the number of days from Part B randomization to date of the last lipid evaluation.
SecondaryNon-HDL-C Blood Level104 weeks
Time-weighted average is calculated as the lipid value times the number of days since last lipid assessment, summed for all and divided by the number of days from Part B randomization to date of the last lipid evaluation.
SecondaryLDL-C/HDL-C Blood Level104 weeks
Time-weighted average is calculated as the lipid value times the number of days since last lipid assessment, summed for all and divided by the number of days from Part B randomization to date of the last lipid evaluation.
