A Controlled-Study of Fenofibrate 145 mg and Ezetimibe 10 mg in Type IIb Dyslipidemic Patients With Features of the Metabolic Syndrome
Information source: Solvay Pharmaceuticals
Information obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov on June 20, 2008 Link to the current ClinicalTrials.gov record.
Condition(s) targeted: Hyperlipidemia Combined
Intervention: Combination of 145 mg fenofibrate and 10 mg ezetimibe (Drug)
Phase: Phase 3
Status: Completed
Sponsored by: Solvay Pharmaceuticals Official(s) and/or principal investigator(s): Global Clinical Director Solvay, Study Director, Affiliation: Solvay Pharmaceuticals
Summary
Type IIb dyslipidemia is characterized by elevated triglycerides (TG ³ 150 mg/dL), and
elevated LDL-C levels (³160 mg/dL). When in addition, HDL-C is low, the presence of the lipid
triad, elevated TG and LDL-C and low levels of HDL-C, seems to confer additional CHD risk in
this type of patient, compared to elevated LDL-C alone. Coadministration of fenofibrate and
ezetimibe could provide a complementary efficacy therapy and improve the atherogenic profile
of this patient population.
