THE EFFECT OF SIMVASTATIN VERSUS COMBINED SIMVASTATIN/EZETIMIBE TREATMENT ON THE CONCENTRATION OF SMALL DENSE LOW-DENSITY LIPOPROTEIN PARTICLES IN PATIENTS WITH PRIMARY HYPERCHOLESTEROLEMIA

University of Ioannina·interventional·Posted Jul 3, 2009·Updated Aug 19, 2011

In Brief

A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating SIMVASTATIN 40 mg and SIMVASTATIN/EZETIMIBE 10/10 mg for Hypercholesterolemia. Completed, enrolled 100 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

Both simvastatin 40 mg and simvastatin/ezetimibe 10/10 mg result in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) reductions of approximately the same magnitude. However, the differential effects of these two treatment options on small dense LDL-C (sdLDL-C) concentration have not been assessed. The aim of the present study is to compare the effects of simvastatin 40 mg versus simvastatin/ezetimibe 10/10 mg on sdLDL-C concentration. The primary efficacy endpoint will be changes in LDL subfraction profile (i.e. mean LDL particle size, sdLDL-C levels) at 3 months after treatment initiation.
