apoAI, apolipoprotein AI; apoB, apolipoprotein B; atorvastatin, atorvastatin 20 mg; CI, confidence interval; HDL, high-density lipoprotein; IQR, interquartile range; LDL, low-density lipoprotein; Lp(a), lipoprotein(a); TC, total cholesterol; TG, triglyceride.

LDL-C estimated using Friedewald equation.

Anacetrapib, combined anacetrapib 150- and 300-mg treatment groups.

*

Least squares mean and 95% CI from analysis of covariance model with treatment as a factor and baseline lipid level as a covariate.

Significant between-group difference with 2-stage false discovery rate approach, which ensures the overall false discovery rate to be less than 5%.

Significant dose-response including placebo and all anacetrapib doses (ie, 10 mg, 40 mg, 150 mg/300 mg).
