Observational Study of Approaches to Lipid-Lowering Therapy in Russian Patients With Coronary Heart Disease <<Treat to Goal>> (Study P05464)

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.

Key information

About this study

Given the observational nature of this study and that the assessment of a specific hypothesis is not foreseen, statistical assumption is not planned and the sample size calculation was not performed.

Taking into consideration the available data on the established safety profile of the therapy with statins and combination of ezetimibe with statins it has been suggested that a sample size of 750 patients will be sufficient to identify adverse events profile.

The treatment effects will be characterized by descriptive and frequency parameters.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Male and Female, from 18 to 75 years old;
  • Established diagnosis of CHD;
  • Previous (at least, within 1 month before inclusion in the present study) treatment with statin;
  • Levels of plasma TC and LDL-C above the recommended target values

(TC> 4.5 mmol\\L; LDL-C> 2.5 mmol/L);

  • The written informed consent signed prior to the start of participation in the study.

Exclusion criteria

  • Contraindications for statin and ezetimibe (Ezetrol) administration in accordance with local Russian Federation medical instructions.

Treatment and study plan

ezetimibe

Drug

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

Other names: SCH 58235, Ezetrol

Statin

Drug

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

Primary outcomes

  1. 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.

    Time frame: During the study

    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).

  2. 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

    Time frame: Visit 2 (Month 2, 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).

  3. 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

    Time frame: Visit 2 (Month 2, end of observation)

  4. 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

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

  5. 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

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