Brief Summary

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

Although there have been studies regarding intensive lowering of low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol with high intensity statins in patients with cardiovascular disease, elderly patients were either excluded or accounted only a small portion of study subjects. Therefore, this study sought to compare the clinical outcomes according to the LDL-cholesterol therapy targeting (intensive targeting \[LDL-cholesterol \<55mg/dL\] vs. conventional therapy \[moderate intensity statin therapy\]) in elderly patients with ≥75 years and documented cardiovascular disease.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Intensive targeting group

Intensive lipid loweroing therapy with LDL-cholesterol goal of \<55mg/dL

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Intensive targeting group

Intervention Type DRUG

Intensive lipid lowering therapy with LDL-cholesterol goal of \<55mg/dL. Atorvastatin 5, 10, 20, 40, and 80mg are allowed to use and ezetimibe or PCSK-9 inhibitor may be considered in patients who could not achieve target LDL-cholesterol level even with the maximum dose of study drugs (atorvastatin 80mg) by the discretion of the investigator.

Conventional therapy group

Initiate and maintain moderate intensity statin therapy

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Conventional therapy group

Intervention Type DRUG

Only moderate intensity statin therapy (atorvastatin 5, 10, and 20mg ) are allowed. Ezetimibe or PCSK-9 inhibitor is not allowed to use.
