Intensive Lipid-lowering for Plaque and Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events in Low to Intermediate 10-year ASCVD Risk Population

Effects of Intensive Lipid-lowering on Coronary Atherosclerotic Plaque Phenotype and Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events in Adults With Low to Intermediate 10-year ASCVD Risk: a Prospective, Randomized, Open-label, Blinded Endpoint Analysis(PROBE)

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 20 Jul 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Current guidelines recommend moderate-intensity lipid-lowering therapy (goal for LDL-C \<2.6 mmol/L or 30%-50% reduction from baseline) for patients with intermediate 10-year ASCVD risk. In these patients, early coronary atherosclerotic plaques detected by coronary CT angiography are common, but further interventions are lacking. This study aims to analyze whether intensive lipid-lowering therapy (goal for LDL-C \<1.8 mmol/L or ≥50% reduction from baseline) could delay the progression of coronary atherosclerotic lesions and reduce the adverse cardiovascular events in these target patients.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

Other illness

  • Diabetes mellitus
  • Uncontrollable hypertension
  • Hypersensitivity to statins

  • Survival-limiting diseases

Lab values

  • Combination with serious cardiovascular diseases, including
    • Heart failure (ejection fraction \<30%)
    • Arrhythmias (persistent atrial flutter/atrial fibrillation, second-degree or third-degree atrioventricular block)
    • Hemodynamically important valvular disease
    • Hemodynamically important congenital heart disease
    • Stroke

Other

  • Unexplained creatine phosphokinase\> 6 times the upper limit of normal
  • Uncontrollable hypothyroidism
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding
  • Other unsuitable situations deemed by physicians

Who the study is looking for
