About this study

Official title: Primary Prevention of MACE With Standard and Intensive Statin Treatment in Hypercholesterolemia Patients With Concomitant Diabetes and Hypertension

The study is being conducted to compare the effect of standard treatment (target LDL-C level: <120 mg/dL (JASGL 2007 target level)) and intensive treatment (target LDL-C level: <70 mg/dL) in the prevention of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in hypercholesterolemia patients with concomitant type 2 diabetes and hypertension.

Being tested
Pravastatin, Rosuvastatin
Keywords
Hypercholesterolemia with concomitant type 2 diabetes and hypertension
Medical subject headings
Hypercholesterolemia, Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, Hypertension

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PravastatinDrug

    5 mg/day or 10 mg/day of pravastatin will be administered orally for 36 months, with a follow-up period of one month. If the target LDL-C level is not attained after one month of treatment, the steps will be taken to reduce the LDL-C to the target level of <120 mg/dL (JASGL 2007 target level) as quickly as possible. (Maximum dose increase of pravastatin: 20 mg/day)

  • RosuvastatinDrug

    5 mg/day or 10 mg/day of rosuvastatin will be administered orally for 36 months based on the LDL-C level of the subject, with a follow-up period of one month. If the target LDL-C level is not attained after one month of treatment, the steps will be taken to reduce the LDL-C to the target level of <70 mg/dL as quickly as possible. (Maximum dose increase to rosuvastatin: 20 mg/day)

  4. MACE (time to event): MACE (time to event): myocardial infarction, unstable angina, cardiovascular death, revascularization, fatal/nonfatal cerebrovascular accident, peripheral arteriopathy, aortic event

    Measured: 6 month after treatment initiation

  5. MACE (time to event): MACE (time to event): myocardial infarction, unstable angina, cardiovascular death, revascularization, fatal/nonfatal cerebrovascular accident, peripheral arteriopathy, aortic event

    Measured: 12 month after treatment initiation

  6. MACE (time to event): MACE (time to event): myocardial infarction, unstable angina, cardiovascular death, revascularization, fatal/nonfatal cerebrovascular accident, peripheral arteriopathy, aortic event

    Measured: 36 month after treatment initiation

  7. MACE (time to event): MACE (time to event): myocardial infarction, unstable angina, cardiovascular death, revascularization, fatal/nonfatal cerebrovascular accident, peripheral arteriopathy, aortic event

    Measured: At baseline

  5. Frequency and distribution of type of deaths during the study period

    Measured: At baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Pravastatin and Rosuvastatin in people with Hypercholesterolemia and Type 2 Diabetes, run by Positive Trial Group at 317 sites in Japan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 14 inclusion and 16 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Jun 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 317 sites in Japan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: With recommendation from IDMC, Steering Committee terminated this trial due to ethical concerns raised by J-ART study.). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

MACE (time to event): MACE (time to event): myocardial infarction, unstable angina, cardiovascular death, revascularization, fatal/nonfatal cerebrovascular accident, peripheral arteriopathy, aortic event (time frame: At baseline). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Jun 2011.
