In patients with coronary artery disease and a LDL-C level between 2.5 mmol/L and 5.0 mmol/L on a stable (> 4 weeks) statin starting dose (simvastatin 20 mg or atorvastatin 10 mg), investigate what the LCL-C lowering efficacy is of doubling the statin dose (to 40 mg simvastatin or 20 mg atorvastatin) versus a combination tablet of ezetimibe 10 mg plus simvastatin 20 mg once daily for 12 weeks. It is postulated that more patients reach their LDL-C treatment goal with the combination tablet compared to doubling the starting dose. Furthermore, the effect of both treatment regimens on other lipid parameters, safety and LDL-subfractions will be measured.
