Influence of lipid-lowering therapy on the progression of coronary artery calcification: A prospective evaluation

Coronary calcification measured by fast computed tomography techniques is a surrogate marker of coronary atherosclerotic plaque burden. In a cohort study, we prospectively investigated whether lipid-lowering therapy with a cholesterol synthesis enzyme inhibitor reduces the progression of coronary ca...

description Coronary calcification measured by fast computed tomography techniques is a surrogate marker of coronary atherosclerotic plaque burden. In a cohort study, we prospectively investigated whether lipid-lowering therapy with a cholesterol synthesis enzyme inhibitor reduces the progression of coronary calcification. In 66 patients with coronary calcifications in electron beam tomography (EBT), LDL cholesterol >130 mg/dL, and no lipid-lowering treatment, the EBT scan was repeated after a mean interval of 14 months and treatment with cerivastatin was initiated (0.3 mg/d). After 12 months of treatment, a third EBT scan was performed. Coronary calcifications were quantified using a volumetric score. Cerivastatin therapy lowered the mean LDL cholesterol level from 164+/-30 to 107+/-21 mg/dL. The median calcified volume was 155 mm3 (range, 15 to 1849) at baseline, 201 mm3 (19 to 2486) after 14 months without treatment, and 203 mm3 (15 to 2569) after 12 months of cerivastatin treatment. The median annualized absolute increase in coronary calcium was 25 mm3 during the untreated versus 11 mm3 during the treatment period (P=0.01). The median annual relative increase in coronary calcium was 25% during the untreated versus 8.8% during the treatment period (P
