Recent acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) occurred within 2 weeks prior to randomization. 7. Relapse and highly symptomatic arrhythmia uncontrolled by drugs within the past 3 months, such as ventricular tachycardia, atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular rate and paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia. 8. Prior treatment with CABG, heart transplantation, SAVR/TAVR, etc., or CABG, heart transplantation, SAVR/TAVR, etc., is required or planned during the study. 9. PCI performed within 4 weeks prior to randomization or PCI is required or planned during study treatment. 10. New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III or IV, or last known left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \<40%. 11. Recent clinically evident stroke occurred within 6 months prior to randomization (except for TIA). 12. Presenting with history of myopathy/myalgia, or susceptible to myopathy/rhabdomyolysis. 13. Known inflammatory bowel disease, ulcers, gastrointestinal or rectal bleeding within 6 months prior to randomization. 14.

Presence of any type of autoimmune disease. 17. Allergy to multiple food or drugs or known sensitivity to any components to be administered during dosing 18. Life expectancy is less than 1 year. 19. Systolic blood pressure of ≥150 mmHg at final screening despite antihypertensive therapy. 20. Known familial hypercholesterolemia 21. Triglycerides≥400 mg/dl (4.5 mmol/l) at final screening. 22.
