Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol-targeting Statin Therapy Versus the Intensity-based Statin Therapy in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease

Phase 4
Active, not recruiting
Conditions
Coronary Artery Diseasse
Interventions
Drug: fixed high potent statin therapy
Drug: targeted LDL-C goal statin
Registration Number
NCT02579499
Lead Sponsor
Yonsei University
Brief Summary

To compare clinical safety \& efficacy of fixed-high potent statin therapy (according to 2013 ACC/AHA guideline) vs. targeted LDL-C goal statin therapy (LDL\<70mg/dL) for secondary prevention. Total 4400 patients with coronary artery disease patients requiring statin treatment were categorized fixed high-potent statin group and targeted LDL-C group. The investigators will compare primary endpoint (major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular event (MACCE)) and secondary endpoint (1. New onset diabetes mellitus after randomization, 2. Hospitalization due to heart failure, 3. Deep vein thrombosis or Pulmonary thromboembolism, 4. Percutaneous trans-luminal angioplasty on peripheral artery obstructive disease, 5. Aortic intervention or operation, 6. ESRD with renal replacement therapy).
