* 24-week placebo-controlled phase Subjects will receive either 0.45 mg QD, 0.3 mg QD, 0.15 mg QD or placebo for the first 24 weeks of treatment.
* 28-week active treatment phase At Week 24, all subjects on placebo will be re-randomized to active treatment.
* 52-week long-term extension phase Subjects who complete the treatment phase may be eligible to roll over into a Long-term Extension of up to 52 weeks of treatment.
