About this trial

\[Purpose of the Clinical Study\]:The purpose of this study is to conduct a clinical comparison of low-dose rosuvastatin plus ezetimibe combination therapy and high-dose rosuvastatin monotherapy in patients with minimal to intermediate coronary artery disease without percutaneous coronary intervention to confirm non-inferiority in the reduction of key cardiovascular events.

\[Hypothesis\]:In patients who have not undergone percutaneous coronary intervention for minimal to moderate coronary artery disease, low-dose rosuvastatin and ezetimibe combination therapy are non-inferior in terms of reducing major cardiovascular events compared to high-dose rosuvastatin monotherapy.
