Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 40 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • • Men or women ≥40 years of age admitted with a clinical diagnosis of ACS. The diagnosis should be based on the combination of typical ischemic chest complaints and objective evidence of myocardial ischemia or myocardial necrosis as demonstrated by the electrocardiogram (ECG) or elevated cardiac markers, as follows:
  • Typical ischemic chest pain, lasting 10 minutes or more, within the preceding 24 hours, AND either
  • ECG changes indicative of myocardial ischemia within 24 hours after the onset of chest pain (ECG showing persistent or non-persistent ST-segment elevation >1.0 mm in two or more contiguous leads or dynamic ST-segment depression >1.0 mm in two or more contiguous leads) or
  • Elevated biomarkers of myocardial necrosis within 24 hours after the onset of chest pain (i.e. CK-MB >1 times the upper limit of normal of the local laboratory, or Troponin-T >0.1 ng/ml.
  • A diagnosis of DM type II prior to the index ACS
  • Written informed consent

Who cannot join

  • • Myocardial ischemia precipitated by a condition other than atherosclerotic coronary artery disease (e.g. arrhythmia, severe anemia, hypoxia, thyrotoxicosis, cocaine, severe valvular disease, hypotension).
  • Severely-impaired left ventricular function (ejection fraction <30%) or end-stage congestive heart failure NYHA-class III or IV (in order to avoid lost-to-follow-up due to non-acute coronary syndrome events).
  • Severe chronic kidney disease with measured or calculated glomerular filtration rate (Cockgroft-Gault or MDRD4 (Modification of Diet in Renal Disease) formula) of <30 ml/min/1.73m2, or renal dialysis.
  • Co-existent condition associated with a life-expectancy <12 months, or otherwise unlikely to appear at all scheduled follow-up visits.
  • Known serious or hypersensitivity reactions to HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors.
  • Triglyceride (TG) level ≥500 mg/dL (5.65 mmol/L) at screening, because patients with very high triglyceride levels warrant treatment with agents that may increase the risk of side effects associated with statin drugs.
Show all 10Show fewer
  • Active liver disease or hepatic dysfunction, as determined by alanine aminotransferase (ALT [SGPT]) >3 x ULN or bilirubin levels >1.5 x ULN at screening.
  • Myopathy.
  • Not using effective contraceptive methods.
  • Participation in any investigational drug study less than 30 days prior to enrolment.

What participants receive

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

  • RosuvastatinDrug

    Also called Crestor

    Both of the two groups will be given standard ACS treatment according to treatment guidelines during the following 1 year.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Rosuvastatin in people with Acute Coronary Syndrome and Diabetes Mellitus, run by Peking University Third Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 6 inclusion and 10 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jul 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Wei Gao, Master (+8613901366179, dr_gaowei@medmail.com.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

A composite of cardiovascular mortality or a clinical diagnosis of a non-fatal ACS (time frame: during 12 months follow-up). 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 30 Jul 2012.
