NCT00730132

Brief Summary

This study is being performed to evaluate what variants of lipid-lowering therapy are used in Russian clinical practice in coronary heart disease (CHD) patients with hypercholesterolemia in whom the initial statin therapy did not achieve low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) goals. Additionally, the efficacy and safety of all variants of modified lipid-lowering therapy are to be evaluated.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

  • Percentage of Patients Receiving Each Variant of Modified Lipid-lowering Therapy: Statin Dose Titration, Administration of a New Statin, Administration of a Ezetimibe in Addition to a Current Statin.

    Statins included: 1. statin dose (atorvastatin, fluvastatin, rosuvastatin, simvastatin) titration . 2. shift to a (atorvastatin, fluvastatin, lovastatin, pravastatin, rosuvastin, simvastatin) different statin . 3. Ezetimibe added to existing statin (atorvastatin, lovastatin, rosuvastatin, simvastatin).

    During the study

  • Percentage of Patients Per Group Who Reach Goal for Total Cholesterol (TC) (< 4.5 mmol/L) According to All-Russian Scientific Cardiologists Society (ARSCS) Recommendations by End of Observation

    Statins included in this outcome measure included: 1. statin dose (atorvastatin, fluvastatin, rosuvastatin, simvastatin) titration. 2. shift to a different (atorvastatin, fluvastatin, lovastatin, pravastatin, rosuvastin, simvastatin) statin . 3. Ezetimibe added to existing statin (atorvastatin, lovastatin, rosuvastatin, simvastatin).

    Visit 2 (Month 2, end of observation)

  • Percentage of Patients Per Group Who Reached Goal for Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL-C) (< 2.6 mmol/L) According to ARSCS Recommendations by End of Observation

    Visit 2 (Month 2, end of observation)

  • Percentage of Relative Change of Total Cholesterol (TC) Level Measured on Visit 2 Compared With the Baseline (Visit 1) in Each of the Three Therapy Groups

    Visit 2 (Month 2, end of observation) and Visit 1 (Day 0, baseline)

  • Percentage of Relative Change of LDL-C Level Measured on Visit 2 Compared With the Baseline (Visit 1) in Each of the Three Therapy Groups

    Visit 2 (Month 2, end of observation) and Visit 1 (Day 0, baseline)

Study Arms (3)

New Statin

Group 1 - Patients with established diagnosis of CHD and hypercholesterolemia who did not achieve the target values for TC and LDL-C with existing statin therapy (atorvastatin, fluvastatin, lovastatin, pravastatin, rosuvastatin, simvastatin) whose lipid-lowering therapy was modified by transition to a new statin treatment

Drug: Statin

Statin Dose Titration

Group 2 - Patients with established diagnosis of CHD and hypercholesterolemia who did not achieve the target values for TC and LDL-C with existing statin therapy (atorvastatin, fluvastatin, lovastatin, pravastatin, rosuvastatin, simvastatin) whose lipid-lowering therapy was modified by increasing the dose of ongoing statin treatment

Drug: Statin

Ezetimibe added to existing statin

Group 3 - Patients with established diagnosis of CHD and hypercholesterolemia who did not achieve the target values for TC and LDL-C with existing statin therapy (atorvastatin, fluvastatin, lovastatin, pravastatin, rosuvastatin, simvastatin) and whose lipid-lowering therapy was modified by the addition of ezetimibe to ongoing statin treatment

Drug: Ezetimibe

Interventions

Dosage determined by the investigator based on standard and applicable routine clinical practice for CHD and hypercholesterolemia patients

Also known as: SCH 58235, Ezetrol
Ezetimibe added to existing statin
StatinDRUG

Statin titration for the Statin Dose Titration group, and new statin treatment and dosage for the New Statin group, determined by the investigator based on standard and applicable routine clinical practice for CHD and hypercholesterolemia patients
