Triple vs Dual Lipid-Lowering Therapy for LDL-C Reduction in Acute Coronary Syndrome

Triple (Atorvastatin, Ezetimibe, and Bempedoic Acid) Versus Dual Lipid-Lowering Therapy for LDL-C Reduction in Acute Coronary Syndrome: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 9 Apr 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether triple lipid-lowering therapy (atorvastatin, ezetimibe, and bempedoic acid) is more effective than dual therapy (atorvastatin and ezetimibe) in reducing LDL cholesterol levels in adults with acute coronary syndrome. It will also assess the safety of the treatment. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does triple therapy result in greater reduction in LDL-C compared to dual therapy? * What adverse effects occur in participants receiving triple therapy? Researchers will compare triple therapy to dual therapy to determine its effectiveness in lowering LDL-C levels. Participants will: * Receive either dual or triple lipid-lowering therapy for 3 months * Attend regular follow-up visits for clinical assessment and laboratory testing * Undergo lipid profile evaluation at baseline and at the end of the study
