Statins, High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol, and
Regression of Coronary Atherosclerosis: Study Design
1455 patients from 4 trials (REVERSAL, CAMELOT, ACTIVATE, ASTEROID) with CAD
undergoing serial intravascular ultrasonography while receiving statin treatment.
Post-hoc analysis of raw data from the four prospective, randomized trials. Follow-up at 18 or 24 months.
Exclusion criteria: Target segment selected was required to have no greater than 50% lumen narrowing for a
length of at least 30 mm and target vessel required to have not previously undergone percutaneous coronary
intervention.

• Many patients have low HDL
• Low HDL-C is a major predictor of CV
events (even with low LDL-C)
• Niacin worked in large outcomes trial
