Study Overview

Brief Summary

This 8 weeks, prospective, single center, randomized, open-label, parallel-group, non-inferiority study was performed from October 2015 to April 2018. This study as designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 10mg of the generic formulation (rosuvastatin, ROVASRO®) compared to the reference formulation (rosuvastatin, CRESTOR®) in patients with primary hypercholesterolemia and complex dyslipidemia.

Inclusion Criteria

  • Individuals aged between 19 and 80 years old.
  • The following patients who belong to the low-risk group to the very-high risk group according to 2015 Korean guidelines for the management of dyslipidemia (Committee, KCJ 2016).
  • Very high risk group (coronary artery disease, ischemic stroke, peripheral vascular disease) were not receiving lipid-lowering agents (statins) within 4 weeks of the screening, regardless of LDL-C levels
  • High risk group (carotid artery disease, abnormal aneurysm, diabetes)* : LDL-C ≥ 100 mg/dl
  • Moderate risk group (2 or more major risk factors)* : LDL-C ≥ 130 mg/dl
  • Low risk group (less than 1 major risk factors)* : LDL-C ≥ 160 mg/dl
  • If the patients taka a lipid-lowering agents (statin) within 4 weeks of screening, enrolled them after wash-out for 4 weeks or more.
  • Patients who voluntarily participated in the trial and obtained document consent.

Exclusion Criteria

  • a history of acute arterial disease (patients with unstable angina myocardial infarction, transient ischemic attack, cerebrovascular disease, coronary artery bypass graft or percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty within 3 months prior to study enrollment)
  • uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure ≥180mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥100mmHg)
  • uncontrolled diabetes (hemoglobin A1c ≥9% or fasting glucose ≥160mg/dl)
  • uncontrolled thyroid dysfunction (thyroid stimulation hormone ≥1.5 times the upper limits of normal (ULN))
  • usage of antihyperlipidemic drugs (bile acid sequestrants, fibrates, niacin, etc.) within 4 weeks before enrollment
  • a history of myopathy, rhabdomyolysis or elevated serum creatinine kinase (CK) more than 2 times the ULN
  • chronic kidney disease (serum creatinine ≥2 times the ULN)
  • elevated liver enzymes (aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≥2 times the ULN)
  • a history of drug or alcohol abuse
  • a history of gastrointestinal surgery or gastrointestinal tract disorders
  • hypersensitivity to the components of this drug
  • those who disagree with contraception
  • pregnancy and/or lactation.

Arms & Interventions

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Percentage change in the level of LDL-C

Time Frame: 8 weeks after treatment

Percentage change in the level of low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C)(mg/dL) from baseline to week 8 of drug treatment.

Target achievement rate in the level of LDL-C

Time Frame: 8 weeks after treatment

Target achievement rate in the level of LDL-C from baseline to week 8 of drug treatment The LDL-C targets were defined as \<70 mg/dL for the very high risk group, \<100 mg/dL for the high risk group, \<130 mg/dL for the moderate risk group, and \<160 mg/dL for the low risk group (Committee. KCJ 2016).

Secondary Outcomes

  • Change in biochemical parameters : high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol(HDL-C)(mg/dL)(8 weeks after treatment)
  • Change in biochemical parameters : total cholesterol (mg/dL)(8 weeks after treatment)
  • Change in biochemical parameters : triglyceride (mg/dL)(8 weeks after treatment)
  • Change in biochemical parameters : apolipoprotein B(mg/dL)(8 weeks after treatment)
  • Change in biochemical parameters : apolipoprotein A1(mg/dL)(8 weeks after treatment)
  • Change in biochemical parameters : high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP)(mg/L)(8 weeks after treatment)
