Theoretical Basis for Combination Rx
 Multiple pathogenetic pathways of
cholesterol in development of CAD
 Differential effects of various lipid-
lowering agents:
 Act on different pathways
 Target different lipid particles
Net Cholesterol Balance in Humans
Indications for Combination Rx
 Treatment goals not met with single agent
 Risk of intolerance, toxicity, or adverse drug
 interactions with higher dose of single
agent
 Perceived benefit from ≥ 2 agents due to
complementary:
• Mechanisms of action
• Effects on different lipids
• Effects on CHD risk
Agents Commonly Used in Combination
with Statins
 Bile acid sequestrants
 PPAR agonists (fibrates)
 Fish oils
 Niacin
 Ezetimibe

PPAR- Agonists (TZDs) and Statins
 Metabolic effects of TZDs may be
complementary to lipid-altering effects of
statins:

 Increased HDL-C levels (with pioglitazone and
rosiglitazone)
 Number of LDL particles
 Unchanged with pioglitazone

Agents Commonly Used in Combination
with Statins
 Bile acid sequestrants
 PPAR agonists (fibrates)
 Fish oils
 Niacin
 Ezetimibe
Fish Oils and Statins
 Marine fish oils rich in omega-3 fatty acids:
• Lower TG levels
• May be alternative to fibrate plus statin
 Other CV effects complementary to statins:
• Reduction in malignant ventricular dysrhythmias
• Increased heart rate variability
• Antithrombotic effects
• Improved endothelial reactivity/relaxation
• Anti-inflammatory effects
• Slight lowering of blood pressure

Commercial Fish Oil Preparations
 Capsules available containing >1000 mg omega-
3 fatty acids, including:

Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)

Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)
 TG benefits usually associated with combined
dose of EPA + DHA of 4 g/d to 9 g/d
 Side effects include fishy aftertaste and
dyspepsia
 Inconsistent reports of early, short-lived,
potential increase in blood glucose levels in
patients with diabetes mellitus

Kris-Etherton PM, et al. Circulation. 2002;106:2747-2757.
Fish Oil and Hematologic Factors
 May impair platelet aggregation and
increase bleeding time
 Potentially reduces risk for thrombosis
 Concomitant use with anticoagulants
(aspirin or warfarin):
 No significant increase in risk of bleeding
in clinical trials

Agents Commonly Used in Combination
with Statins
 Bile acid sequestrants
 PPAR agonists (fibrates)
 Fish oils
 Niacin
 Ezetimibe
Role of Niacin in Combination Therapy

As monotherapy, niacin effects include:
 Increases in HDL-C
 Decreases in LDL-C, triglycerides, lipoprotein(a)
 Converts small LDL into more buoyant (less
atherogenic) particles

Safe and effective in combination with statins or
bile acid sequestrants
 Consider tolerability profiles of different
formulations
 May adversely effect glucose, insulin sensitivity

Ezetimibe: Indications
 Hypercholesterolemia
 Monotherapy
 Combination therapy with statins
 Homozygous familial
hypercholesterolemia
 Homozygous sitosterolemia
Note:
no data are yet available on effects of ezetimibe (alone or in
combination therapy) on CHD morbidity and mortality
Bays H. Expert Opin Investig Drugs. 2002;11:1587-1604.
Ezetimibe: Mechanism of Action
 Selective inhibition of intestinal cholesterol
absorption
•  Intestinal delivery of cholesterol to liver
•  Expression of hepatic LDL receptors
•  Cholesterol content of atherogenic particles
 Enterohepatic circulation of ezetimibe and
active glucuronide metabolite
• Delivers agent back to site of action
• Limits systemic exposure

Conclusion:
 Different lipid-lowering agents affect
different lipid parameters
 Combination therapy may further reduce
CHD risk vs monotherapy
 Consider combination therapy if:
 Treatment goals cannot be met with statins alone
 Risk for intolerance, toxicity, or adverse drug
interactions with higher dose of single lipidlowering agent
55
Conclusions
 Inhibition of cholesterol absorption and
production via coadministration of ezetimibe
with a statin or ezetimibe/simvastatin in the
single tablet
 Is helping to set a new standard
 Provides greater efficacy than statin therapy
alone to get patients to a lower LDL-C goal
 Outcomes studies will determine if the risk of
cardiac endpoints decreases as LDL-C levels
decrease with ezetimibe/simvastatin
Treatment Paradigm
Combination therapy-Statin plus what?
For LDL


Cholesterol absorption inhibitor –
Ezetimibe/Ezetrol®

Bile acid sequestrant
For HDL


Niacin/Niaspan®/Fibrate
For TG

