Summary

This study sought to evaluate whether ezetimibe combination to high-intensity statin therapy will have more prominent beneficial effect compared to high-intensity statin monotherapy in patients who underwent coronary revascularization with newer generation drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation. Furthermore, the optimal OCT-based optimal expansion criteria as well as the efficacy and safety of newer generation will be investigated.

Conditions

  • Coronary Artery Disease Requiring Coronary Revascularization With Newer Generation DES Implantation

Interventions

DRUG

ezetimibe/high-intensity statin combination therapy (ezetimibe 10mg plus atoravastatin 40mg)

The initial dose of lipid-lowering therapy will be ezetimibe 10mg plus atoravastatin 40mg. During follow-up, the dose of ezetimibe 10mg plus atoravastatin 40mg is strongly recommended to be maintained.

DRUG

high-intensity statin monotherapy (atoravastatin 40mg)

The initial dose of lipid-lowering therapy will be atoravastatin 40mg. During follow-up, the dose of atoravastatin 40mg is strongly recommended to be maintained.
