Compares treatment options for Coronary Artery Disease Requiring Coronary Revascularization...
Official title Effect of High-intensity Statin With Ezetimibe COmbination theRapy Versus High-intensity sTatin Monotherapy After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention With Drug-eluting Stents; the ESCORT Trial
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05782777
What this study is testing
What is ezetimibe/high-intensity statin combination therapy (ezetimibe 10mg plus atoravastatin 40mg)?
ezetimibe/high-intensity statin combination therapy (ezetimibe 10mg plus atoravastatin 40mg) is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for coronary artery disease requiring coronary revascularization with newer generation des implantation.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This study sought to evaluate whether ezetimibe combination to high-intensity statin therapy will have more prominent beneficial effect compared to high-intensity statin monotherapy in patients who underwent coronary revascularization with newer generation drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation. Furthermore, the optimal OCT-based optimal expansion criteria as well as the efficacy and safety of newer generation will be investigated.
