Summary

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, balanced-parallel-group, efficacy and safety trial of ezetimibe coadministered with atorvastatin in adult participants with primary hypercholesterolemia. The primary hypothesis is that the coadministration of ezetimibe 10 mg/day with atorvastatin (pooled across all doses: 10 mg, 20 mg, 40 mg, 80 mg) will result in a significantly greater reduction in direct low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) when compared with atorvastatin (pooled across all doses: 10 mg, 20 mg, 40 mg, 80 mg) alone and ezetimibe 10 mg alone.
