Popis: | SummaryAims Guidelines propose additional therapy to statin to treat elevated triglycerides (TG) and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC) in dyslipidemic patients. We evaluated the effects of new fixed-dose combinations (FDC) of fenofibrate/simvastatin on plasma lipids versus simvastatin or fenofibrate monotherapies. Methods Subjects with mixed dyslipidemia at high or very high cardiovascular risk on stable statin therapy for at least 3 months were included in a randomized, double-blind, active-control, parallel-group study. Patients were treated with FDC fenofibrate/simvastatin 145/20 mg or 145/40 mg, simvastatin 20 mg or 40 mg, or fenofibrate 145 mg for 12 weeks. Plasma lipids, C-reactive protein, and cystatin C were measured before and after treatments. Differences in % changes were compared between FDC fenofibrate/simvastatin and monotherapies. Results Significant differences between FDC fenofibrate/simvastatin and simvastatin monotherapies were observed for the % change of TG (LS mean difference [two-sided 95% CI]: −32.2% [−38.6%, −25.8%], P |
