Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the additional effect of probucol or concomitant administration of cilostazol and probucol on mean carotid artery intima-media thickness (mean IMT) at year 1, 2, and 3.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Hyperlipidemic patients who are currently receiving HMGCoA reductase inhibitors(Statins) will be randomized Group A(Control), Group B(Probucol only added group) or Group C(Probucol and cilostazol added group) . Randomization will be done by the minimization method, controlling for the following factors: Country(Korea vs China) and max IMT (≥2.0mm vs.\<2.0mm).

Group A : HMGCoA reductase inhibitor continued

Group B : HMGCoA reductase inhibitor continued + Probucol 250 mg PO, BID

Group C : HMGCoA reductase inhibitor continued + Probucol 250 mg PO, BID +Cilostazol 100 mg PO, BID
