About this study

Official title: An Open-label, Randomized, Multi-centre, Phase IVb, Parallel Study Group to Compare the Efficacy and Safety of 5 mg and 10 mg Rosuvastatin

The primary objective of the study is to compare the efficacy of Rosuvastatin 5 mg once daily with Rosuvastatin 10 mg once daily by assessment of the number of patients with hypercholesterolemia reaching the LDL-C target goal of <100 mg/dL after 12 weeks of therapy.

Read the detailed description

This study will observe the followings:

  1. To compare the effect of 5 mg/10 mg Rosuvastatin by assessment of the number of patients reaching LDL-C target goal after 24 weeks of therapy.
  2. To compare the effect of 12 weeks therapy with 5 mg/10 mg Rosuvastatin on change in LDL-C (compare change from baseline).
  3. To investigate the effect of 12 weeks therapy with 10 mg Rosuvastatin on change in LDL-C (compare values week 0 vs. week 12).
  4. To investigate the safety of Rosuvastatin in regards to liver enzyme change, kidney function and muscle toxicity.
  5. To compare the effect of 12 weeks therapy with 5 mg/10 mg Rosuvastatin on change in TC, HDL-C, TG, LDL-C density and HbA1c (compare change from baseline).
  6. To investigate the effect of 12 weeks therapy with 10 mg Rosuvastatin on change in TC, HDL-C, TG, LDL-C density and HbA1c (compare values week 0 vs. week 12).
  7. To investigate the effect of 12 weeks therapy on change in microalbuminuria in each treatment group (compare change from baseline).
  8. To investigate the effect of 12 weeks therapy on change in BMI (compare change from baseline). The effects of the dose increase and the dose decrease from weeks 12 to 24 will be evaluated as follows:
  9. To investigate the change in LDL-C by increasing the dose from 5 mg to 10 mg (compare values week 12 vs. 24).
  10. To investigate the change in LDL-C by decreasing the dose from 10 mg to 5 mg (compare values week 12 vs. 24).
  11. To investigate the change in TC, HDL-C, TG, LDL-C density and HbA1c by increasing the dose from 5 mg to 10 mg (compare values week 12 vs. 24).
  12. To investigate the change in TC, HDL-C, TG, LDL-C density and HbA1c by decreasing the dose from 10 mg to 5 mg (compare values week 12 vs. 24).

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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?

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?

Efficacy of Rosuvastatin 5 mg once daily with Rosuvastatin 10 mg once daily by assessment of the number of patients with hypercholesterolemia reaching the LDL-C target goal of <100 mg/dL after 12 weeks of therapy. (time frame: 24 weeks). 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 25 Sep 2012.
