  • Subject has atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease including any of the following: clinical signs of atherosclerosis including peripheral arterial disease, abdominal aortic aneurysm, carotid artery disease \[symptomatic (e.g., myocardial infarction, angina, transient ischemic attack or stroke of carotid origin) or \>50% stenosis on angiography or ultrasound\] or other forms of clinical atherosclerotic disease (e.g., renal artery disease).
  • Subject has a history or presence of a clinically important medical condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, could interfere with the interpretation of the study results.
  • Individual has a positive urine drug screen for illicit drugs.
  • Individual has uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure ≥160 mm Hg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥100 mm Hg) at visit 1 (week -1).
  • Subject has a history of cancer in the prior 5 years, except for non-melanoma skin cancer or carcinoma in situ of the cervix.
