Serum LDL-C calculated using Friedewald formula at baseline and after 6 weeks of treatment in each of the 2 treatment periods.
LDL-C levels measured at Baseline and after 6 weeks of treatment (Week 6; end of Phase I). Baseline was defined as the average value of the measurements taken at Visits 3 and 4. LDL-C was calculated using the Friedewald method when triglyceride (TG)\<350 mg/dL (3.95 mmol/L) and beta quantification ultracentrifugation when TG≥350 mg/dL (3.95 mmol/L).
An adverse event is any unfavorable medical event occurring in a subject to whom an investigational product is administered, and a causal relationship between the administered investigational product and an adverse event is not always clarified. That is, an adverse event is any unfavorable or unintended sign (including an abnormal change in laboratory test values), symptom, or disease, and a causal relationship to the relevant investigational product is not considered. Any adverse event that was considered treatment-related was considered an adverse reaction.
Percent Change in LDL-C = \[(week 6 value - baseline value)/baseline value\]\*100%
\[(6 week value - baseline value)/baseline value\]\*100%.

On each of 2 days prior to the last day of each treatment period, participants consumed 2 large eggs in the evening. On the morning of the final day of each treatment period, fasting participants were given a site-prepared, cholesterol-enriched milkshake that provided 1114 calories of total energy (\~44% of calories from fat, \~40% of calories from carbohydrate and \~17% of calories from protein) and 504 mg of cholesterol. The milkshake was consumed over a 15-minute period. Plasma samples were collected immediately prior to consumption of the test meal (baseline) and at 2, 3, 4, and 6 hours afterwards for isolation and analysis of lipoprotein fractions. The geometric mean concentration level was calculated using data obtained at all timepoints.
The time (in months) from study start to the first occurrence of any of the following clinical outcomes was recorded: cardiovascular death, major coronary Event (non-fatal myocardial infarction \[MI\], documented unstable angina \[UA\] requiring hospitalization, or coronary revascularization with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) ≥ 30 days after randomization), or non-fatal Stroke. A Clinical Endpoints Committee (CEC) reviewed and adjudicated each suspected efficacy endpoint event while blinded to treatment. Participants who did not have any endpoint event until last visit or who were lost to follow-up and had no event were censored at the time of last available information (last study visit). The Kaplan-Meier estimate reports the percentage of participants who experienced cardiovascular death, major coronary event, or non-fatal stroke within 7 years from randomization.

Ezetimibe is a small molecule drug being developed for conditions related to high cholesterol, including atherosclerosis, primary hypercholesterolemia, hyperlipidemia, and familial hypercholesterolemia. It is intended to lower cholesterol levels in patients with these metabolic disorders.
Ezetimibe is being developed by Organon & Co., a company traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol OGN. The drug is currently in Phase 3 clinical development for cholesterol-related indications.
Ezetimibe is in Phase 3 clinical development. It is an investigational drug and has not been approved by the FDA. The drug has completed 28 clinical trials, all of which are finished, with no active trials currently ongoing.
Ezetimibe has completed several Phase 3 trials, including NCT00867165, which studied its efficacy and safety in children with primary hypercholesterolemia, and NCT03882905, which evaluated it when added to statin therapy in adults with primary hypercholesterolemia. Another trial, NCT03884452, tested it with atorvastatin or simvastatin in familial hypercholesterolemia.
