Summary

Primary Objective:

To demonstrate the reduction of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) by alirocumab as add-on therapy to stable maximally tolerated daily statin therapy with or without other lipid-modifying therapy (LMT) in comparison with placebo after 24 weeks of treatment in high cardiovascular risk participants with hypercholesterolemia in South Korea and Taiwan.

Secondary Objectives:

* To evaluate the effect of alirocumab in comparison with placebo on LDL-C after 12 weeks of treatment.
* To evaluate the effect of alirocumab on other lipid parameters: apolipoprotein B (Apo B), non high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C), total cholesterol (TC), lipoprotein (a) (Lp \[a\]), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), triglycerides (TGs), and apolipoprotein A-1 (Apo A-1).
* To evaluate the safety and tolerability of alirocumab.
* To evaluate the development of anti-alirocumab antibodies (ADA).
