简要总结
The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether one pill that combines ezetimibe, rosuvastatin, and amlodipine can safely lower cholesterol and blood pressure in Korean adults with high blood pressure and high cholesterol.
详细描述
Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker used for the treatment of hypertension. Rosuvastatin is a statin that inhibits HMG-CoA reductase and is widely used for the treatment of hypercholesterolemia. Ezetimibe is a lipid-lowering agent that inhibits intestinal cholesterol absorption and is commonly used in combination with statins.
This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, phase 3 clinical trial evaluates the efficacy and safety of a fixed-dose combination of ezetimibe, rosuvastatin, and amlodipine in Korean adults with essential hypertension and primary hypercholesterolemia. Following a run-in period that includes therapeutic lifestyle modification, participants are randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive ezetimibe/rosuvastatin/amlodipine 10/20/10 mg or amlodipine 10 mg, or ezetimibe/rosuvastatin 10/20 mg for 8 weeks.
A total of 163 participants were enrolled across 21 study sites. Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels and mean sitting systolic blood pressure (MSSBP) are assessed at Weeks 4 and 8. The primary efficacy endpoints are the percent change in LDL-C from baseline at Week 8 and the change in MSSBP from baseline at Week 8. Secondary endpoints include changes in total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), triglycerides, non-HDL-C, and apolipoprotein B (ApoB).
