Abstract
Evaluating a new drug for the first time in patients requires knowledge of clinical trial methodology, the pharmacology of the drug, and the clinical condition being treated. When the new drug is designed to modify blood lipids this undertaking is complicated by many factors and circumstances affecting the accurate determination of safety and efficacy parameters in hyperlipidemic patients.
