Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if, in a subset of patients treated with a beta-blocker and diuretic, prediabetes is detectable to a greater extent through a 2-hour oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) compared to fasting glucose measurement. Read more about this study

About this study

The purpose of this study is to determine if, in a subset of patients treated with a beta-blocker and diuretic, prediabetes is detectable to a greater extent through a 2-hour oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) compared to fasting glucose measurement.

Read the detailed description

Beta-blockers and diuretics have a well-established role in treating hypertension and are frequently used first-line. However, it is increasingly evident that these medications have harmful metabolic effects. The Pharmacogenomic Evaluation of Antihypertensive Responses (PEAR - NCT00246519) study was a greater than 700 participant, randomized, parallel assignment trial, aimed at determining the genetic factors that influence response to both a beta-blocker (atenolol) and a diuretic (hydrochlorothiazide [HCTZ]). The PEAR trial design includes evaluation at baseline, after monotherapy with either medication, and after combination therapy with both medications. This pilot, PEAR sub-study aims to characterize the ability of two diagnostics tests (fasting glucose versus glucose 2-hours after an OGTT) to detect prediabetes development prior to blood pressure medication use, after monotherapy (with atenolol or HCTZ) and after combination therapy (with atenolol and HCTZ).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants Diagnosed With Prediabetes or Normal Glucose, by 2 Measurements (Fasting Glucose Measurement and Glucose Measurement After a 2-hour Oral Glucose Tolerance Test [OGTT]), at Three Timepoints During Antihypertensive Treatment

    A single cohort of patients was followed through participation in the parent study, PEAR, and had both fasting and 2-hour OGTT labs evaluated at three time points. At each of these time points the two methods for evaluating prediabetes were compared. Consistent with the definition for prediabetes recommended by the American Diabetes Association, a fasting glucose above 99mg/dL or 2-hour oral glucose tolerance test glucose above 139mg/dL was considered prediabetic for this study.

    Measured: Baseline, 9 weeks, and 18 weeks after initiation of PEAR intervention(s)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Prediabetic State, run by University of Florida at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Apr 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 3 Sep 2012). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants Diagnosed With Prediabetes or Normal Glucose, by 2 Measurements (Fasting Glucose Measurement and Glucose Measurement After a 2-hour Oral Glucose Tolerance Test [OGTT]), at Three Timepoints During Antihypertensive Treatment (time frame: Baseline, 9 weeks, and 18 weeks after initiation of PEAR intervention(s)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Apr 2018.
