What is being measured

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

  1. Percent rate of patients achieving target LDL cholesterol goals

    Measured: On each of the 3 visits performed during the study

  2. Percent rate of patients achieving 50% or more reduction in LDL-cholesterol

    Measured: On each of the 3 visits performed during the study

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Percent rate of patients achieving target secondary (total Ch, triglycerides, HDL Ch) goals

    Measured: On each of the 3 visits performed during the study

  2. Percent rate of compliance among patients in the study

    Measured: On each of the 3 visits performed during the study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiovascular Risk, run by AstraZeneca at 26 sites in Hungary.

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 1 inclusion and 3 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 4 Dec 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 26 sites in Hungary. 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 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 rate of patients achieving target LDL cholesterol goals (time frame: On each of the 3 visits performed during the study). 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 NCT00921752, which also lists 7 linked publications.

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 4 Dec 2009.
