Objective
To determine whether intensive LDL-C lowering with atorvastatin 80 mg/day was more efficacious than standard LDL-C lowering with pravastatin 40 mg/day in reducing the incidence of cardiovascular events in patients hospitalized with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) within the preceding 10 days.
Methods
Pravastatin or Atorvastatin Evaluation and Infection Therapy-Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction 22 (PROVE IT-TIMI 22) trial was a randomized comparative study where in 4162 patients who had been hospitalized for an acute coronary syndrome within the preceding 10 days were enrolled and randomly assigned to treatment with either 40 mg a day pravastatin or 80 mg a day atorvastatin. The primary end point was a composite of death from any cause, myocardial infarction, documented unstable angina requiring re-hospitalization, revascularization (performed at least 30 days after randomization), and stroke.
Results
- High-dose atorvastatin group achieved a mean LDL-C level of 62 mg per deciliter compared to 95 mg per deciliter in the standard-dose pravastatin group.
- The composite end point at 30 days occurred in 3.0% of patients receiving atorvastatin 80 mg versus 4.2% of patients receiving pravastatin 40 mg.
Conclusion
Among patients who have recently had an acute coronary syndrome, an intensive lipid-lowering statin regimen provides greater protection against death or major cardiovascular events than does a standard regimen. These findings indicate that such patients benefit from early and continued lowering of LDL-C to levels substantially below current target levels.[1][2][3][4][5]
