EASEGO Study: Doubling of Atorvastatin/Simvastatin or INEGY in Patients With Hypercholesterolemia and Coronary Artery Disease(CAD)(0653A-089)

Atherosclerosis Clinical Trial

Official title:
A Prospective Randomized Open Label Blinded Endpoint Multicenter Study in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease to Assess the LDL Lowering Effect of Switching to Ezetimibe (+) Simvastatin for Cholesterol Lowering, Compared the Dose of the Statin Used.

Clinical Trial Summary

In patients with coronary artery disease and a LDL-C level between 2.5 mmol/L and 5.0 mmol/L on a stable (> 4 weeks) statin starting dose (simvastatin 20 mg or atorvastatin 10 mg), investigate what the LCL-C lowering efficacy is of doubling the statin dose (to 40 mg simvastatin or 20 mg atorvastatin) versus a combination tablet of ezetimibe 10 mg plus simvastatin 20 mg once daily for 12 weeks. It is postulated that more patients reach their LDL-C treatment goal with the combination tablet compared to doubling the starting dose. Furthermore, the effect of both treatment regimens on other lipid parameters, safety and LDL-subfractions will be measured.

Clinical Trial Description

Patients with simvastatin 20 mg or atorvastatin 10 mg were randomized to (1) double statin dose (to 40 mg simvastatin or 20 mg atorvastatin) or (2) switch to a combination tablet of ezetimibe 10 mg plus simvastatin 20 mg once daily for 12 weeks. ;
