About this trial
A Multicenter, randomized trial comparing the efficacy and safety of intensive lipid-lowering therapy using a statin-ezetimibe combination without aspirin versus statin monotherapy with aspirin in asymptomatic patients with coronary artery calcification
Eligibility criteria

The coronary CT scan used to establish the CAC score must be performed within 3 years prior to randomization.
The assessment of physiological significance must be performed within 6 months prior to randomization
Disqualifiers
Major ASCVD events (clinically documented ASCVD)
Acute coronary syndrome (MI or unstable angina)
Coronary revascularization (PCI, CABG) or other arterial revascularization
Ischemic stroke (Not TIA)
