Aspirin Mono Therapy 12-months After Drug-eluting Stents Implantation

Overview

The purpose of this study is to determine whether high dose statin therapy in patients with aspirin mono antiplatelet therapy who had received drug-eluting stent (DES) previously and were free of the adverse cardiac events during the first 12 months could be superior over pravastatin therapy in the prevention of late adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events during the additional 12 months. Study Design.

Objective: To determine whether high dose statin therapy in patients with aspirin mono antiplatelet therapy who had received drug-eluting stent (DES) previously and were free of the adverse cardiac events during the first 12 months could be superior over pravastatin therapy in the prevention of late adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events during the additional 12 months. Study Design * Prospective, randomized, multi-center study of each 1000 subjects enrolled. * Eligible subjects will be randomized 1:1 to a) atorvastatin 40 mg (n=1000) vs. b) pravastatin 20 mg/day (n=1000). All subjects will be followed for 1 year after randomization. Additional long-term follow-up (2- or 3-year) will be preceded in the next plan after 1-year study period. * Subjects with coronary artery diseases who meet all inclusion and exclusion criteria will be included Clinical and laboratory follow-up should be performed.
