About this study

Official title: Effects of Liraglutide on Left Ventricular Function in Patients With Non-ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction

The investigators planned to evaluate the effects of liraglutide on left ventricular function in patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI).

Read the detailed description

Patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) are a heterogeneous group with respect to the risk of having a major adverse cardiac event (MACE). Elevation of blood glucose is a common metabolic disorder among patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and is associated with adverse prognosis. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an incretin hormone that regulates plasma glucose. GLP-1 analogues have significant cardiovascular protective effects in patients with AMI. GLP-1 may have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, and protect endothelial function. Studies in conscious, chronically instrumented dogs demonstrated that GLP-1 infusion increases insulin sensitivity and myocardial glucose uptake in postischemic contractile dysfunction and dilated cardiomyopathy. Liraglutide, a GLP-1 analogue, was reported to reduce cardiac rupture and infarct size and improve cardiac output in normal and diabetic mice. Continuous infusion of GLP-1 (1.5 pmol/kg/min) has been shown to improve functional recovery in patients with AMI complicated by decreased left ventricular function GLP-1 could protect against ischemia-reperfusion injury and improve cardiac function in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. However, the effects of GLP-1 on NSTEMI patients remain unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of liraglutide on left ventricular function in patients with NSTEMI.

What is being measured

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

  1. left ventricular ejection fractions

    The primary efficacy endpoint was the effect of liraglutide on left ventricular ejection fractions (LVEF) measured by transthoracic echocardiography at 3 months .

    Measured: at 3 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. 6-minute walk distance

    The change in6-minute walk distance at 3 months after treatment.

    Measured: at 3 months

  2. treatment-emergent adverse events

    Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs): hypoglycaemia, pancreatitis, thyroid cancer

    Measured: at 3 months
