NCT01551173

Brief Summary

This study is to demonstrate therapeutic comparability of Fluvastatin sodium Extended Release Tablets 80 mg QD and Fluvastatin sodium Immediate Release Capsules 40 mg BID in LDL-C lowering from baseline to week 12 (endpoint) in patients with primary hypercholesterolemia or mixed dyslipidemia at moderate or high CV risk who did not achieve their lipid goals when treated with Fluvastatin sodium Immediate Release Capsules 40 mg QD.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Mean Percent Change in LDL-C From Baseline at Study Endpoint, Week 12 (LOCF)

    After the patient has been sitting for at least 5 minutes, a 12 hour fasting blood sample will be withdrawn at baseline and endpoint. An analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) with treatment, center, and indication category as factors and baseline LDL-C as a covariate will be used to analyze percent change from baseline in LDL-C.

    Baseline, week 12

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Change From Baseline at Week 4, Week 8, Week 12, and Endpoint for Lipid Variables Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C) , Total Cholesterol (TC), High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDL-C) , Non HDL-C, Triglycerides (TG)

    Baseline, week 4, week 8, week 12, Endpoint

  • Proportion of Patients Achieving Their LDL-C Treatment Goals at Week 4, Week 8, Week 12, and Endpoint

    Baseline, week 4, week 8, week 12, Endpoint

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients with known hypersensitivity to fluvastatin or any of the excipients.
  • Dyslipidemia secondary to other causes.
  • Known muscle disease or history of muscle disease and/or serum CPK levels greater than 2 x upper limit of normal (ULN).
  • A history or evidence of Acute Myocardial infarction (AMI), unstable angina (UA) or Coronary artery bypass surgery or Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) within the previous 8 weeks.
  • Active liver disease and/or serum transaminase levels (ALT, AST) greater than 1.5 x ULN.
  • Patients on a proper lipid lowering monotherapy (defined as at least 12 weeks continuous monotherapy with a recommended dose and administration in the label) within the previous 3 months prior to visit 1.
