A pesar de evaluar una población con niveles lipídicos considerados casi “optimos” en los algorritmos usuales en prevención, el beneficio relativo observado en JUPITER fue mayor que en otros estudios previos con estatinas. En este estudio sujetos con bajo LDL/alta PCRus que no califican para terapia con estatinas, rosuvastatina significativamente redujo 20% la mortalidad por toda causa. JUPITER – Conclusiones
24. Los beneficios con rosuvastatina fueron consistentes en todos los subgrupos independientemente de la edad, sexo, etnia, u otras características clínicas basales incluyento la sola elevación de PCR y ningún otro FR. La tasa de hospitalización y revascularización se redujo un 47 % en un período de 2 años y el Número Necesario de Tratar a 5 años fue de 25 pacientes, para cualquier evento primario, el más bajo observado hasta aquí en Prevención Primaria con Hipolipemiantes.

JUPITER es un estudio aleatorio, doble ciego, placebo controlado, multicéntrico, fase III de rosuvastatina 20 mg en la prevención primaria de eventos vasculares entre pacientes con niveles bajos de colesterol LDL-C ( 3.36 mmol/L [130 mg/dL]) y niveles elevados de PCR ( 2.0 mg/L) efectuado en 15,000 pacientes de 24 países.
Further information about the secondary endpoints: Venous thromboembolic events are defined as deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism. The diagnosis of incident diabetes mellitus will be based upon physician diagnosis, confirmed either by the new use of insulin or an oral hypoglycaemic agent, evidence of a positive glucose tolerance test, or evidence of a repeated fasting glucose >7.0 mmol/L (126 mg/dL). Analyses of incident diabetes mellitus will include all study participants as well as those in whom baseline HbA 1c measurement was <6.5%. Additional analyses will examine the development of diabetes mellitus as reflected by plasma levels of fasting glucose and HbA 1c measured during study follow-up. Reference Ridker PM.

89,890 patients were initially screened into the study at 1,315 sites in 26 countries. Following completion of a four week placebo run-in period, 17,802 patients met the eligibility criteria and were randomized into the study. A small number of patients, 44 in the rosuvastatin group and 37 in the placebo group, were lost to follow up during the study. Reference Ridker P et al . Rosuvastatin to prevent vascular events in men and women with elevated C-reactive protein. N Engl J Med 2008; 359 : 2195-2207
Patients in each group were similar at entry and had a median age of 66 years. The study population was diverse and included a large female population (38.2%) and a large proportion of black or hispanic individuals (25.2%). Reference Ridker P et al . Rosuvastatin to prevent vascular events in men and women with elevated C-reactive protein. N Engl J Med 2008; 359 : 2195-2207
Patients had low to normal LDL-C at baseline (median 108 mg/dL). The treatment groups were well matched in terms of laboratory parameters at baseline. Reference Ridker P et al . Rosuvastatin to prevent vascular events in men and women with elevated C-reactive protein. N Engl J Med 2008; 359 : 2195-2207
Patients recruited into the JUPITER study would not usually be eligible for statin therapy according to current treatment guidelines. In order to be eligible for the study, men had to be 50 years of age and women had to be 60 years of age. As a result, all eligible study patients had age as a risk factor as defined by the NCEP ATP III treatment guidelines (NCEP ATP III definition: men 45, women 55 yrs) 1 . A substantial number of patients also had other cardiovascular risk factors including hypertension, low HDL-C, family history of premature CHD and smoking amongst others. 2,3 Reference Grundy SM et al .

This slide presents the effects of rosuvastatin on the primary endpoint, according to baseline characteristics. Results achieved statistical significance in all subgroups according to age, race or ethnic group, region of origin, risk factor status and Framingham risk score, including the first demonstrated benefit in women without established CHD. Relative risk reductions in the rosuvastatin group were similar for women (46%) and men (42%). Reference Ridker P et al .

Tolerability and safety: Rosuvastatin 20 mg was well tolerated during the course of the study, with no significant difference between treatment groups in terms of muscle weakness, newly diagnosed cancer or disorders of the haematologic, gastrointestinal, hepatic or renal systems. One case of non-fatal rhabdomyolysis was reported in the rosuvastatin treatment group after the study completion date. This case involved a 90 year old individual with febrile influenza, pneumonia and trauma-induced myopathy. No increase in intracranial hemorrhagic stroke was seen following treatment with rosuvastatin (6 patients treated with rosuvastatin and 9 patients treated with placebo, p=0.44). Physician-reported diabetes was more frequent among those allocated to rosuvastatin therapy (270 patients in rosuvastatin group and 216 patients in placebo group, p=0.01); these events were not adjudicated by the endpoint committee. This result is despite no difference being observed between study groups for fasting glucose (98 vs 98 mg/dL; p=0.12) or newly diagnosed glycosuria (36 vs 32, p=0.64) [see next slide] . However, a minimal difference in HbA1c was observed (5.9 vs 5.8%, p<0.001). This less than 1% difference in HbA1C was statistically significant, but is unlikely to be of clinical significance. The effect on glucose and diabetes in this study is consistent with the data observed in other large, prospectively designed, placebo controlled statin trials. 2,3 Reference Ridker P et al .

Laboratory safety data: There was no difference between study groups during follow-up for fasting plasma glucose (98 mg/dL rosuvastatin group vs 98 mg/dL placebo group, p=0.12), or glycosuria (36 rosuvastatin group vs 32 placebo group, p=0.53). However, there was a minimal increase in haemoglobin A1c observed between groups during the course of the study (5.9 rosuvastatin group vs 5.8% placebo group, p=0.001). Reference Ridker P et al .
