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

November 28, 2022 updated by: Yonsei University

Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol-targeting Statin Therapy Versus the Intensity-based Statin Therapy in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease: a Randomized Comparison Trial

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).

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Active Comparator: Fixed high-potent statin group
According to 2013 ACC/AHA guideline, patients will be received high-intensity statin therapy (atorvastatin 40mg or rosuvastatin 20mg) regardless of their baseline LDL-C levels.
Drug: fixed high potent statin therapy
Patients assigned fixed high-potent statin group will be received high-intensity statin therapy (atorvastatin 40mg or rosuvastatin 20mg) regardless of their baseline LDL-C levels, and maintain high-intensity statin therapy regardless of their follow-up LDL-C level.
Experimental: Targeted LDL-C goal statin group
Patients will be tiltrated statin intensity guided by follow-up LDL-C level
Drug: targeted LDL-C goal statin
  1. Statin naïve patients: Patients will be received moderate intensity statin therapy (atorvastatin 20mg or rosuvastatin 10mg)

  2. Patients already received statin therapy

    • Baseline LDL-C <70mg: same intensity of statin therapy
    • Baseline LDL-C≥70mg: uptiltrated statin therapy Patients will be tiltrated statin intensity guided by follow-up LDL-C level ( Attained LDL-C < 50mg/dL : down regulated intensity statin therapy, 50mg/dL ≤ Attained LDL-C < 70g/dL: maintain current intensity statin therapy, Attained LDL-C ≥ 70mg/dL: up regulated intensity statin therapy)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
