Trial summary

Patients with diabetes have a higher incidence of heart failure and worse outcomes than normoglycaemic subjects. Basic science research has suggested many mechanisms for this observation including endothelial dysfunction, abnormal calcium handling, fibrosis and activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system… Read more about this study

About this study

Patients with diabetes have a higher incidence of heart failure and worse outcomes than normoglycaemic subjects. Basic science research has suggested many mechanisms for this observation including endothelial dysfunction, abnormal calcium handling, fibrosis and activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), but clinical data are lacking. In this study the investigators will investigate the relationship between diabetes and heart failure by exploring the correlation between microvascular dysfunction and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) markers of left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy, cardiac dysfunction and fibrosis. The investigators also propose to see if this relationship is independent of blood pressure and markers of RAAS activity. This could have important clinical ramifications in type 2 diabetes by increasing the indications for treatment with RAAS inhibition or making a case for lower blood pressure targets.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Type 2 Diabetes, run by Dr. Peter Swoboda at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 1 inclusion and 5 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 21 Sep 2016. 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 Kingdom. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Left ventricle mass (time frame: One year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01970319, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 21 Sep 2016.
