Trial summary

For the management of low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C), some guidelines recommend initial statin treatment with high-intensity statins to achieve at least a 50% reduction in LDL-C levels. High-intensity or maximally tolerated intensity can be maintained without a target goal. Read more about this study

About this study

For the management of low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C), some guidelines recommend initial statin treatment with high-intensity statins to achieve at least a 50% reduction in LDL-C levels. High-intensity or maximally tolerated intensity can be maintained without a target goal. However, the European guideline recommends less than 55 mg/dL of LDL-C after PCI.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease and Hyperlipidemias, run by Samsung Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

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 5 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 21 May 2025. 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 South Korea. 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?

MACCE (time frame: 10 years after PCI). 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 NCT06338956, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 21 May 2025.
