In October 2013, initiate the ETC-1002-008 Phase 2b clinical study in approximately 322 patients with hypercholesterolemia and either a history of statin intolerance or a history of statin tolerance. The goal of this study is to demonstrate comparable tolerability and superior efficacy to ezetimibe for the treatment of patients with elevated LDL-C levels and intolerance to two or more statins due to muscle-related adverse events.

Later in 2013, present full results of the ETC-1002-006 Phase 2a clinical study in patients with hypercholesterolemia and a history of statin intolerance at a major scientific meeting.
