UNISON: Statin Monotherapy or Statins in Combination With Ezetimibe in Patients for Prevention of CVD
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Retrospective observational study of the efficacy and safety of statin monotherapy or statins in combination with ezetimibe in patients receiving lipid-lowering therapy in both primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The study will include patients receiving lipid-lowering therapy in both primary and secondary prevention of CVD who have received therapy of interest for ≥ 3 months in the 2 years preceding the signing of informed consent, i.e. statins as monotherapy or in combination with ezetimibe in a stable mode (without dose adjustment and/or statin replacement). Effectiveness of therapy will be evaluated based on the data on changes in baseline levels of total cholesterol (CS), low density lipoproteins (LDL), high density lipoproteins (HDL), triglycerides (TG), data on which will be obtained from primary medical records. Demographic and anthropometric data on patients, information on the history of hyperlipidemia and concomitant diseases will also be obtained. Also, the study will collect data on the development of adverse reactions of particular interest during therapy (liver/muscle damage, major cardiovascular events (MACE).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Frequency of achieving target LDL (%) [at the time of enrolment in the study]
Frequency of achieving target LDL cholesterol levels at the time of enrolment (%)
- Average change in LDL (absolute difference) [from the moment of initiation of lipid-lowering drug therapy (not earlier than 2 years before enrolment into the study) to inclusion in the study]
Average change in LDL cholesterol level from the moment of the index event to inclusion (absolute difference)
- Average change in LDL (% from the baseline) [from the moment of initiation of lipid-lowering drug therapy (not earlier than 2 years before enrolment into the study) to inclusion in the study]
Average change in LDL cholesterol level from the moment of the index event to inclusion (% from the baseline)
- Average change in total cholesterol (% and absolute difference) [from the moment of initiation of lipid-lowering drug therapy (not earlier than 2 years before enrolment into the study) to inclusion in the study]
Average change in total cholesterol level from the moment of the index event to inclusion (% and absolute difference)
- Average change in LDL (% and absolute difference) [from the moment of initiation of lipid-lowering drug therapy (not earlier than 2 years before enrolment into the study) to inclusion in the study]
Average change in LDL cholesterol level from the moment of the index event to inclusion (% and absolute difference)
- Average change in TG (% and absolute difference) [from the moment of initiation of lipid-lowering drug therapy (not earlier than 2 years before enrolment into the study) to inclusion in the study]
Average change in TG level from the moment of the index event to inclusion (% and absolute difference)
- The incidence of liver damage [from the moment of initiation of lipid-lowering drug therapy (not earlier than 2 years before enrolment into the study) to inclusion in the study]
an increase in ALT/AST levels over 1.5 of the upper limit normal [ULN]
- The frequency of development of muscle damage [from the moment of initiation of lipid-lowering drug therapy (not earlier than 2 years before enrolment into the study) to inclusion in the study]
an increase in CPK level while excluding other possible factors of the development of the disorder
- Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) incidence [from the moment of initiation of lipid-lowering drug therapy (not earlier than 2 years before enrolment into the study) to inclusion in the study]
Within the framework of this study, major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) are considered as follows: myocardial infarction (MI), unstable angina pectoris, ischaemic stroke, aortocoronary bypass, mammary coronary bypass, coronary artery bypass, peripheral artery surgery, atherosclerotic stenosis of any artery more than 50%.
