Summary
This is a 24-week study to determine the lipid metabolic effects, safety, and tolerability of
tesaglitazar compared with metformin and metformin in combination with fenofibrate in
patients with type 2 diabetes and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C).
Improvement in dyslipidemia will be evaluated. The study comprises a 2-week enrollment
period, 6-week run-in and a 24-week randomized, double blind, parallel group, multi-center,
active controlled (metformin with or without fenofibrate) treatment period and a 3-week
follow-up. From visit 2 (run-in), all patients will receive a standardized dose of statin
