| Main Objective: - To demonstrate the superiority of the efficacy of Fenofibrate 160mg/Pravastatin 40mg combination versus Simvastatin 20 mg, in type 2 diabetic patients without CVD and with combined hyperlipidemia and to describe the safety of the combination. - To demonstrate the superiority of the efficacy of Fenofibrate 160mg/Pravastatin 40mg combination + Ezetimibe 10 mg versus Simvastatin 20 mg + Ezetimibe 10 mg, in type 2 diabetic patients with CVD and with combined hyperlipidemia and to describe the safety of Fenofibrate 160mg/Pravastatin 40mg combination + Ezetimibe 10 mg. These two objectives will be demonstrated by an evaluation of the mean percent changes in plasma non-HDL cholesterol levels at the end of the efficacy period compared to baseline.;Secondary Objective: · To evaluate the percentage of patients who achieve the therapeutic goals with regards to non-HDL cholesterol and LDL-C levels at the end of the efficacy period, as defined in the NCEP ATP III · To assess and compare the evolution of the following lipid parameters: LDL-C, HDL-C, TG, total cholesterol at the end of the efficacy period · To assess and compare the evolution of ApoA1 and ApoB levels, and of the ratio ApoB/ApoA1 at the end of the efficacy period · To evaluate the changes in CRP values, fibrinogen values and homocystein values at the end of the efficacy period · To compare the safety profiles of Simvastatin 20 mg and Fenofibrate 160 mg/Pravastatin 40 mg combination with and without Ezetimibe during the 12-week efficacy period, and to describe the safety profile of Fenofibrate 160 mg/Pravastatin 40mg combination with and without Ezetimibe 10 mg during the 12-week safety period. ;Primary end point(s): Primary Efficacy endpoints : · Mean percent change in plasma non-HDL cholesterol levels at the end of the efficacy period compared to the baseline Secondary Efficacy endpoints : · Percentage of patients who achieve the therapeutic goals concerning the non-HDL-C and LDL-C levels at t | — |
