What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percent change from baseline in total cholesterol, LDL-C, HDL-C, and triglycerides.

    Measured: Day 15

  2. Safety: adverse events, laboratory test results, physical examination, vital signs.

    Measured: Throughout study

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Evaluate potential for PK interaction between ezetimibe and rosuvastatin as indicated by Cmax and AUC.

    Measured: Day 14

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Ezetimibe + Rosuvastatin, Rosuvastatin and Ezetimibe in people with Hypercholesterolemia and Atherosclerosis, run by Organon and Co.

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 9 inclusion and 14 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Feb 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Percent change from baseline in total cholesterol, LDL-C, HDL-C, and triglycerides. (time frame: Day 15). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00651144, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 17 Feb 2022.
