Status and phase
Completed
Phase 4
Conditions
Primary Hypercholesterolemia
Treatments
Drug: Rosuvastatin
Drug: Atorvastatin
Drug: Ezetimibe
Details and patient eligibility
About
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of atorvastatin 10 mg and ezetimibe 10 mg coadministration in Japanese participants with hypercholesterolemia whose low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol levels have not reached the lipid management target value with atorvastatin 10 mg alone, versus increasing the dose of atorvastatin to 20 mg or changing to rosuvastatin 2.5 mg.

Inclusion criteria
- atorvastatin 10 mg monotherapy for 4 weeks or longer before the start of the 4-week washout and low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) levels that had not reached the following lipid management target values during treatment: Category I (low-risk group) with no other risk factors - LDL-C <160 mg/dL; Category II (mid-risk group) with 1-2 risk factors other than LDL-C levels - LDL-C <140 mg/dL; Category III (high-risk group) with 3 or more other risk factors - LDL-C <120 mg/dL; and for participants with history of coronary artery disease - LDL-C <100 mg/dL.
- outpatient men or women, age 20 years and older
Exclusion criteria

- cyclosporine treatment
- hyperlipidemia associated with hypothyroidism, obstructive gall bladder or biliary disease, chronic renal failure, and/or pancreatitis.
