Landmark Trials

VA-HIT Trial

  • Objective: To conclude if changes in plasma lipid levels due to gemfibrozil is the cause for reduction in major cardiovascular events in VA-HIT trial.
  • Method: VA-HIT (Veterans Affairs HDL Intervention Trial) trial is a multicentered, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial wherein 2531 patients with CAD along with LDL levels ≤140 mg/dL (mean 111 mg/dL) and HDL ≤40 mg/dL (mean 32 mg/dL) were randomly assigned to treatment with gemfibrozil or placebo.
  • Results: At one year the following findings were noted in the group treated with gemfibrozil:
    • Mean HDL-C level was higher by 6%
    • 31% lower mean TG concentration
    • Mean total cholesterol was 4% lower

At five years, the combined primary end point of cardiac death and non-fatal myocardial infarction occurred in 17.3% versus 21.7% in the placebo group. Acute coronary events reduced by 11% with gemfibrozil for every 5 mg/dL rise in HDL-C, but the reduction was independent of changes in LDL-C and triglyceride levels.

  • Conclusion: Low HDL-C levels strongly and independently predict the occurrence of coronary events which were reduced by treatment with gemfibrozil.[1][2][3][4]
