Study Type	Interventional
Study Design	Allocation: Randomized; Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment; Masking: Quadruple (Participant, Care Provider, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor); Primary Purpose: Treatment
Condition	Hypercholesterolemia
Interventions	Drug: Alirocumab; Drug: Placebo; Drug: Atorvastatin; Drug: Non-statin Lipid-Modifying Therapy; Other: Diet Alone
Enrollment	163

Participant Flow

Recruitment Details	The study was conducted at 30 active centers in Japan. Overall 241 participants were screened between 30 November 2015 and 19 October 2016, of whom 78 were screen failures and 163 were randomized. Screen failures were mainly due to exclusion criteria met.
Pre-assignment Details	Randomization stratified per background statin therapy (Yes/No). “No statin” also stratified per background fibrate/ezetimibe therapy (Yes/No), ‘Yes’ =fibrate/ezetimibe, ‘No’ =diet therapy alone. Randomization followed 1:1:1 ratio (Alirocumab 150 mg Q4W: Alirocumab 150 mg Q2W: Placebo Q2W).

Adverse Events

Time Frame	All Adverse Events (AEs) were collected from signature of the informed consent form up to the end of study (up to Week 64) regardless of seriousness or relationship to investigational product.
Adverse Event Reporting Description	Reported AEs and deaths are TEAEs that is AEs that developed/ worsened and death that occurred during ‘treatment-emergent period’ (time from first dose of study drug up to last dose of study drug +70 days). Analysis performed on safety population which included randomized participants who actually received at least 1 dose or partial dose of double-blind IMP injection for double-blind treatment period and at least 1 dose or partial dose of open-label IMP injection for open-label treatment period.

Arm/Group Description	Participants received Placebo (for alirocumab) SC injection Q2W added to lowest-strength statin therapy (atorvastatin 5 mg), stable non-statin LMT or diet therapy alone for 12 weeks.	Participants received Alirocumab 150 mg SC injection Q4W alternating with placebo (for alirocumab) Q4W added to lowest-strength of statin therapy (atorvastatin 5 mg daily) stable non-statin LMT or diet therapy alone for 12 weeks.	Participants received Alirocumab 150 mg SC injection Q2W added to lowest-strength statin therapy (atorvastatin 5 mg), stable non-statin LMT or diet therapy alone for 12 weeks.	All participants received alirocumab 150 mg Q4W from the start of the open-label treatment period. Alirocumab dose up-titrated from 150 mg Q4W to 150 mg Q2W at Week 24 (Week 12 of OLTP), when LDL-C levels ≥ 100 mg/dL (2.59 mmol/L) or ≥ 120 mg/dL (3.10 mmol/L) at Week 20 according to JAS Guidelines for Prevention of Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Diseases 2012.
