The lead study's design has limits that temper confidence (see the rationale below), and its results have not been reported. This tier describes the design, not an outcome.
NCT01516541: The study was randomized and double-blind, compared dalcetrapib with placebo, and enrolled 2,220 participants. Its primary endpoint was a hard clinical composite cardiovascular outcome, but the comparison cannot be judged because trial results have not been posted.
