ASTEROID A Study To evaluate the Effect of Rosuvastatin On Intravascular ultrasound- Derived coronary atheroma burden
2
ASTEROID: Background and hypothesis Aggressive lipid modification has demonstrated regression and/or reduced progression of stenotic lesions by quantitative coronary angiography IVUS trials have shown a halting of progression of atherosclerosis during statin treatment; however, none have provided convincing evidence of regression Does very aggressive statin treatment with rosuvastatin 40 mg, designed to simultaneously LDL-C and HDL-C, result in regression of coronary atherosclerosis? Nissen SE et al. JAMA. 2006;295:1556-65.

*Patients with >50% luminal narrowing were excluded ASTEROID: Study design Nissen SE et al. JAMA. 2006;295:1556-65. Angiographic CAD (>20% luminal narrowing*) Statin-naive N = 507 Rosuvastatin 40 mg qd for 24 months Primary efficacy parameters: Change in % atheroma volume of target vessel Change in total atheroma volume in most diseased 10-mm segment Multicenter, open-label, blinded end point IVUS assessment at baseline and study end Completed trial N = 349

Relationship between ↓LDL-C and atheroma burden Data from recent IVUS trials Nissen SE et al. JAMA. 2006;295:1556-65.

11
ASTEROID: Summary Aggressive statin treatment with rosuvastatin (40 mg) achieved significant changes in lipid levels –LDL-C lowered to 60.8 mg/dL ( 53.2%) –HDL-C raised to 49 mg/dL ( 14.7%) These changes were associated with significant regression of coronary atherosclerosis assessed via prespecified IVUS end points Benefits were also observed in all prespecified subgroups (including age, sex, BMI, history of diabetes) Nissen SE et al. JAMA. 2006;295:1556-65.
12
ASTEROID: Implications Aggressive lipid-modulating strategies in patients with CAD can reverse the atherosclerotic disease process Therapies designed to simultaneously lower LDL-C while raising HDL-C have the potential to substantially reduce atheroma burden Nissen SE et al. JAMA. 2006;295:1556-65. Blumenthal R et al. JAMA. 2006;295:1583-4.
