Purpose
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of atorvastatin 10 mg and ezetimibe 10 mg coadministration in Japanese participants with hypercholesterolemia whose low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol levels have not reached the lipid management target value with atorvastatin 10 mg alone, versus increasing the dose of atorvastatin to 20 mg or changing to rosuvastatin 2.5 mg.

| Official Title: | Ezetimibe Phase IV Clinical Study in Patients With Hypercholesterolemia |
- Percent Change in Low-Density Lipoprotein - Cholesterol (LDL-C) Values [ Time Frame: End of Week 4 to Week 16 or discontinuation ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]LDL-C was measured before group study drug administration (Week 4, end of atorvastatin single therapy) and at the end of study drug administration (after 12 weeks of study drug treatment, or at discontinuation).
- Percent Change in LDL-C [ Time Frame: End of washout period to Week 16 or discontinuation ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]LDL-C was measured at the start of the atorvastatin 10 mg treatment period (end of the washout period) and at the end of administration of the study drug (Week 16 or discontinuation).
- Number of Participants Whose LDL-C Levels Reached the Lipid Management Target Values [ Time Frame: Week 16 or discontinuation ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
LDL-C was measured at the end of administration of the study drug (Week 16 or discontinuation).
Target values:
For participants with history of coronary artery disease: <100 mg/dL;
for participants with at least 3 cardiovascular (CV) risk factors: <120 mg/dL;
for participants with 1-2 CV risk factors: <140 mg/dL;
for participants with no CV risk factors: <160 mg/dL.
- Percent Change in Total Lipids and High Sensitivity C-reactive Protein (Hs-CRP) [ Time Frame: End of Week 4 to Week 16 or discontinuation ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Total cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), non-HDL-C, and hs-CRP were measured at 4 weeks after the start of the treatment period (after completion of administration of atorvastatin 10 mg alone) and at Week 16 or at discontinuation.
- Percent Change in Total Lipids and Hs-CRP [ Time Frame: End of washout to Week 16 or discontinuation ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Total cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), non-HDL-C, and hs-CRP were measured at the start of the treatment period (at start of administration of atorvastatin 10 mg alone) and at the end of study drug (Week 16 or discontinuation).
