What participants receive

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

  • Ezetimibe/simvastatinDrug

    Also called Vytorin

    Algorithm based treatment using 10/10mg, 10/20mg and 10/40mg ezetimibe/simvastatin combination tablets orally once daily.

  • Other StatinDrug

    Participants are prescribed a statin (any other than Vytorin) as per routine standard of care

What is being measured

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

    Measured: Baseline and Week 6

  2. Number of High-risk Participants who Achieve an LDL-C < 70 mg/dL

    Measured: Week 6

  3. Change in Serum LDL From Baseline

    Measured: Baseline and Week 6

  4. Change in Total Cholesterol From Baseline

    Measured: Baseline and Week 6

  5. Change in High-density lipoprotein (HDL) From Baseline

    Measured: Baseline and Week 6

  6. Change in Serum Triglycerides (TG) From Baseline

    Measured: Baseline and Week 6

  7. Change in Serum Non-HDL From Baseline

    Measured: Baseline and Week 6

  8. Change in LDL-C/HDL-C Ratio From Baseline

    Measured: Baseline and Week 6

  9. Change in Apolipoprotein B (ApoB) From Baseline

    Measured: Baseline and Week 6

  10. Number of Participants who Achieve non-HDL-C goal (High-risk <100 mg/dL; Moderate-high and High risk <160 mg/dL))

    Measured: Week 6

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Ezetimibe/simvastatin and Other Statin in people with Dyslipidemia, 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 2 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Feb 2022.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. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Number of Participants who Achieve Low-density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C) goal (High-risk <100 mg/dL; Moderate-high and High risk <130 mg/dL) (time frame: Week 6). 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 Feb 2022.
