Primary Outcome Measures:
  • The primary efficacy endpoint will be the percent change in non-HDL-C from baseline (average of weeks -2, -1, and 0) of the PRV-06009 double-blind study to Week 6 of PRV-06009X [ Time Frame: Week 6 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • The percent change in non-HDL-C from baseline (average of weeks -2, -1, and 0) of the PRV-06009 double-blind study to week 52 of PRV-06009X open-label treatment [ Time Frame: 52 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • The percent change in non-HDL-C from baseline (average of weeks -2, -1, and 0) of the PRV-06009 double-blind study to week 104 of PRV-06009X open-label treatment [ Time Frame: 104 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Estimated Primary Completion Date: August 2009 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Intervention Details:
    Drug: Omacor + simvastatin
    Omacor 4 grams/day plus simvastatin 80 mg/day. Simvastatin dose adjusted at Investigator discretion after week 6.

The present trial is an open-label, uncontrolled extension to the previous trial (PRV-06009) which utilized a randomized,double-blind, two-period crossover design with eight clinic vists.

The current trial consists of nine clinic visits over 104 weeks. There will be two treatment periods in this study:

  • Phase I: All subjects will receive simvastatin 80 md/d plus Omacor 4 g/d for the first six weeks of the trial.
  • Phase II: All subjects will receive simvastatin (at a dose to be determined at the discretion of the Investigator) plus Omacor 4 g/d for the remainder of the treatment period.
