Participant Flow

A total of 1044 patients (adult male and non-pregnant females) were enrolled at 122 Canadian family practice sites between May 2008 and May 2009. Out of these, only 598 patients were allocated to treatment. The remaining 446 did not receive treatment as they did not fulfill the inclusion/exclusion criteria.

Following enrolment, at Visit 1 the patients' Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C) value was baselined. If LDL-C value from Visit 1 was \> 2.00, but ≤ 2.50 mmol/L: patients received Rosuvastatin (RSV)10 mg under the RSV 10 mg arm. If LDL-C value from Visit 1 was \> 2.50 mmol/L: patients received Rosuvastatin 20 mg under the RSV 20 mg arm.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 12 Weeks

The number of subjects achieving Canadian Low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) target goals (i.e. LDL-C ≤ 2.0 mmol/L) over the total number subjects treated after 12 weeks of rosuvastatin therapy multiplied by 100

Outcome measures

Outcome measures
Measure
Rosuvastatin 10 mg (Initial)
n=225 Participants
At visit 1, LDL C level was measured. At visit 2, subjects received treatments with rosuvastatin 10 mg or 20 mg based on their visit 1 LDLC level. At visit 3 (6 weeks after visit 2) LDLC values was measured again and patients were titrated to the next highest dose of rosuvastatin if they had not reached target level of LDLC. Hence, 4 arms are listed, subjects who started on 10 mg could be on 10mg, 20mg by the end of the study and those subjects who started on 20mg could be on 20mg or 40 mg at the end of the study.
Rosuvastatin 20 mg (Initial)
n=176 Participants
At visit 1, LDL C level was measured. At visit 2, subjects received treatments with rosuvastatin 10 mg or 20 mg based on their visit 1 LDLC level. At visit 3 (6 weeks after visit 2) LDLC values was measured again and patients were titrated to the next highest dose of rosuvastatin if they had not reached target level of LDLC. Hence, 4 arms are listed, subjects who started on 10 mg could be on 10mg, 20mg by the end of the study and those subjects who started on 20mg could be on 20mg or 40 mg at the end of the study.
Rosuvastatin 20 mg (Titrated)
n=75 Participants
At visit 1, LDL C level was measured. At visit 2, subjects received treatments with rosuvastatin 10 mg or 20 mg based on their visit 1 LDLC level. At visit 3 (6 weeks after visit 2) LDLC values was measured again and patients were titrated to the next highest dose of rosuvastatin if they had not reached target level of LDLC. Hence, 4 arms are listed, subjects who started on 10 mg could be on 10mg, 20mg by the end of the study and those subjects who started on 20mg could be on 20mg or 40 mg at the end of the study.
Rosuvastatin 40 mg (Titrated)
n=78 Participants
At visit 1, LDL C level was measured. At visit 2, subjects received treatments with rosuvastatin 10 mg or 20 mg based on their visit 1 LDLC level. At visit 3 (6 weeks after visit 2) LDLC values was measured again and patients were titrated to the next highest dose of rosuvastatin if they had not reached target level of LDLC. Hence, 4 arms are listed, subjects who started on 10 mg could be on 10mg, 20mg by the end of the study and those subjects who started on 20mg could be on 20mg or 40 mg at the end of the study.
