Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Diagnosis of high risk vascular disease (HRVD) (that is, meet at least one of the disease diagnostic criteria of):
  • Must be treated with a statin for at least 30 days prior to screening. If not treated with a statin must have documented statin intolerance, or contraindication to statin
  • Have a screening high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) ≤80 milligram per deciliter (mg/dL) (≤2.1 millimole per liter [mmol/L])
  • Have screening triglycerides (TG) ≤400 mg/dL (≤4.5 mmol/L)
  • Meet 1 of the following criteria:
    • Screening low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) no more than 10 mg/dL (0.3 mmol/L) above the target chosen by the investigator (either LDL-C <100 mg/dL [<2.6 mmol/L] or LDL-C <70 mg/dL [<1.8 mmol/L]
    • If LDL-C is greater than target, the patient participant must be on maximum tolerated statin dose (for at least 30 days), have documented statin intolerance, or contraindication to statin

Exclusion Criteria

  • Currently enrolled in, or discontinued within the last 30 days from, a clinical trial involving an investigational product or non-approved use of a drug or :device, or concurrently enrolled in any other type of medical research judged not to be scientifically or medically compatible with this study
  • Have previously completed or withdrawn from this study, or withdrawn from any other study investigating evacetrapib
  • Female participants who are known to be pregnant or breastfeeding
  • Women of child-bearing potential only, who test positive for pregnancy between screening and randomization, or who do not agree to use a reliable method of :birth control during the study
  • History of transient ischemic attack (TIA) or ischemic stroke <30 days and ACS <30 days
  • Any reading of systolic blood pressure ≥180 millimeter of mercury (mm Hg) or diastolic blood pressure ≥110 mm Hg at screening or randomization
  • History of hemorrhagic stroke or intracranial hemorrhage
  • New York Heart Association class III or IV congestive heart failure
  • Serum creatinine >2.2 mg/dL (>194.5 micromole per liter [μmol/L]) at screening
  • Clinically active liver disease. Participants are not excluded due to Gilbert’s Syndrome or a history of cholelithiasis/cholecystectomy
  • History of malignancy within the preceding 3 years prior to screening
  • Known malabsorption syndrome with the exception of lactose intolerance
  • Participants with a known history of primary or secondary hyperaldosteronism
  • Participants with a history of intolerance/hypersensitivity to cholesterol ester transfer protein (CETP) inhibitors
  • Any clinically significant medical condition that according to the investigator could interfere with participation in the study
  • Participants whose life expectancy is anticipated to be less than 4 years
  • Unable or unwilling to comply with study requirements, or deemed by the investigator to be unfit for the study
  • Have a history of drug, alcohol, or substance abuse within the past 6 months, as assessed by the investigator
  • Concurrent or anticipated need for treatment with niacin >250 mg/day or for chronic administration of drugs on the exclusion list
  • Previous exposure to the CETP inhibitors dalcetrapib or evacetrapib within the last 3 months or anacetrapib within the last 12 months
  • Any planned coronary angiography or coronary revascularization procedure. If angiography or revascularization is planned, participants may be screened and :enrolled after all such planned procedures are completed.
