Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 50 to 79 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: A total of 200 T2D diabetic patients without history of clinical Cardiovascular disease will be recruited from the Outpatient Diabetic Clinic of Vall d'Hebron Hospital and the Primary Health Care centers under its influence area. Sixty non-diabetic patients without classic Cardiovascular risk factors matched by age will be used as a control group. Specifically, vascular risk factors, concomitant diseases, family history of Cardiovascular disease or stroke and the treatments taken at the time of inclusion will be collected.

Who may be able to join

  • a) Age from 50-79 years; b) History of type 2diabetes of at least one year. Diabetes will be defined following the American Diabetic Association criteria: fasting glucose level of at least 126 mg/dl [7.0 mmol/l] in two separate analyses, a non-fasting glucose level of at least 200 mg/dl [11.1 mmol/l] or a self-reported history of physician-diagnosed diabetes or treatment for diabetes

Who cannot join

  • a) Past medical history of Cardiovascular event; b) Type 1 diabetes; c) Contraindication for PET-CT or MRI d) Other concomitant disease associated with a short life expectancy

About this study

Official title: "Preventing Cardiovascular Ischemic Events and Arresting Their Consequences in Type 2 Diabetic Population: a Multidisciplinary Clinical and Experimental Approach" (PRECISED)

Current methods based on traditional Cardiovascular risk factors are not clinically useful for identifying Type 2 Diabetes patients at risk of developing acute Cardiovascular ischemic events (ie.myocardial infarction or stroke). In addition, Cardiovascular ischemic events in Type 2 Diabetes population have worse prognosis than in general population. In fact, there is sufficient experimental evidence indicating that diabetes exaggerates the deleterious effects of ischemic events and worsens their outcome.

A prolonged sub-clinical phase exists before a Cardiovascular event occurs in Type 2 Diabetes patients. Therefore, new strategies aimed at identifying those patients with this subclinical Cardiovascular Diabetes and, consequently, more prone to develop Cardiovascular events is a challenge to be met.

Objectives

  1. To examine whether the extension and degree of microangiopathy is an independent risk factor for silent myocardial and brain ischemia. 2) To evaluate whether the degree and extension of microangiopathy is a predictor of CV events and poor outcome. 3) To evaluate whether a new score based on the extension and the degree of microangiopathy will permit us to improve the current methods used to identify patients at risk of CVD and its outcomes. 4) To determine whether the presence and the degree of NAFLD is an independent Cardiovascular disease risk factor and represent and extra-value to the score based on the extension and the degree of microangiopathy.

Secondary objectives:

  1. To examine the usefulness of selected serum biomarkers in identifying diabetic patients at risk of Cardiovascular disease 2) To evaluate whether these selected biomarkers are related to the degree and extension of microangiopathy and the outcome of cardiovascular events. 3) To better define the meaning of microalbuminuria in type 2 diabetic population (glomerular involvement vs. index of generalized endothelial dysfunction)

What is being measured

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

  1. Subclinical Cardiovascular Diseases

    Number of Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) patients presenting subclinical Cardiovascular disease as defined by the presence of brain infarcts (MRI), myocardial infarcts, or myocardial ischemia or > 50% coronary artery stenosis (PET-SPECT)

    Measured: 1 week

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Ischemic events

    • Occurrence of Cardiovascular events during the 3 year follow up: Ictus, transient ischemic attack, acute coronary syndrome (STEMI or NSTEMI), angina, sudden cardiac death.
    • Incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events at 30 days following acute ischemic syndrome (Death, Re-infarction, Ictus)

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Type2 Diabetes Mellitus and Microangiopathy, run by Hospital Universitari Vall d'Hebron Research Institute at 1 site in Spain.

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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jan 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 Spain. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Subclinical Cardiovascular Diseases (time frame: 1 week). 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 23 Jan 2018.
