Title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Parallel Group Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of SAR236553/REGN727 Versus Ezetimibe in High Cardiovascular Risk Patients With Hypercholesterolemia Not Adequately Controlled With Their Statin Therapy
Brief Summary: Alirocumab (SAR236553/REGN727) is a fully human monoclonal antibody that binds PCSK9 (proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9).

Primary Objective of the study:

To demonstrate the reduction of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) by alirocumab as add-on therapy to stable maximally tolerated daily statin therapy in comparison with ezetimibe after 24 weeks of treatment in participants with hypercholesterolemia at high cardiovascular (CV) risk.

Secondary Objectives:

* To evaluate the effect of alirocumab in comparison with ezetimibe on LDL-C at other time points
* To evaluate the effect of alirocumab on other lipid parameters
* To evaluate the safety and tolerability of alirocumab
