What is being measured

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

  1. The percentage of the patients that achieve the goal proposed for NCEP ATP III (2001 y 2004) will be assessed, to C-LDL in patients treated with Rosuvastatin or Ezetimibe/Simvastatin at least for 8 weeks.

    Measured: Data will be collected using CRFs after complete at least 15 patients over a 24 week period.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The percentage of LDL-C reduction according to baseline levels in patients treated wuth Rosuvastatin or Ezetimibe/Simvastatin for at least 8 weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Dyslipidemia, run by AstraZeneca at 9 sites in Mexico.

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 3 inclusion and 1 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 18 Jan 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in Mexico. 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?

The percentage of the patients that achieve the goal proposed for NCEP ATP III (2001 y 2004) will be assessed, to C-LDL in patients treated with Rosuvastatin or Ezetimibe/Simvastatin at least for 8 weeks. (time frame: Data will be collected using CRFs after complete at least 15 patients over a 24 week period.). 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 18 Jan 2012.
