MK0653C in High Cardiovascular Risk Patients With High Cholesterol (Switch Study)(MK-0653C-162)

Hypercholesterolemia Clinical Trial

Official title:
A Randomized, Double-Blind, Active-Controlled, Multicenter Study of Patients With Primary Hypercholesterolemia and High Cardiovascular Risk Who Are Not Adequately Controlled With Atorvastatin 10 mg: A Comparison of the Efficacy and Safety of Switching to Coadministration Ezetimibe and Atorvastatin Versus Doubling the Dose of Atorvastatin or Switching to Rosuvastatin

Clinical Trial Summary

This study will compare the lipid-altering efficacy and safety of switching to co-administration of ezetimibe and atorvastatin versus treatment with atorvastatin or rosuvastatin in high cardiovascular risk patients with hypercholesterolemia who have not achieved specified low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels. The primary hypothesis is that the co-administration of ezetimibe 10 mg and atorvastatin 10 mg will be superior to both atorvastatin 20 mg and rosuvastatin 10 mg with respect to the percentage reduction in low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) after 6 weeks of treatment.

Clinical Trial Description

This is a 18 week randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, multicenter study composed of a 6 week screening/run-in and 12 week double-blind treatment period (composed of 2 phases; each 6 weeks in duration). Only those participants who do not meet low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) goals at the end of Phase I (Week 6), were eligible to continue into Phase II (Week 12). ;
