Observational study to investigate the use and efficacy of CRESTOR 5 mg in reaching LDL-C target goals in both statin naïve and statin treated primary and secondary prevention patients at high risk for a cardiovascular event.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate that 76 weeks of treatment with rosuvastatin calcium 2.5-20 mg results in no progression of coronary artery atherosclerotic volume as measured by intravascular ultrasonography (IVUS) imaging in hypercholesterolaemic subjects with coronary heart disease (CHD).
The primary objective of the study is to compare the efficacy of rosuvastatin 10 mg with atorvastatin 10 mg by assessment of the percentage of subjects who reach EAS LDL-C target goals after 12 weeks of therapy.
