Trial summary

The diabetic population has an increased cardiovascular risk compared to the general population. Hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMG-CoA reductase) inhibitors, or "statins", are considered as the standard treatment for hypercholesterolemia. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Statin Compliance of Patients With Non-insulin-dependent Diabetes

The diabetic population has an increased cardiovascular risk compared to the general population.

Hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMG-CoA reductase) inhibitors, or "statins", are considered as the standard treatment for hypercholesterolemia.

Many patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes are prescribed with statins, both for primary prevention, before the first cardiovascular event, and as secondary prevention, to avoid recurrence.

However, compliance to these drugs may be difficult due to polypharmacy, side effects (myalgia) or tiredness.

The purpose of this study is to determine the compliance of diabetic patients with statins searching for important factors which could favor adherence.

Read the detailed description

The diabetic population has an increased cardiovascular risk compared to the general population. The mortality of people with diabetes due to ischemic heart disease is multiplied by 2.2, and when is due to cerebrovascular disease by 1.8 compared to those patients without diabetes. Hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMG-CoA reductase) inhibitors, or "statins", are considered as the standard treatment for hypercholesterolemia.

Statins have been shown to be effective in reducing the risk of cardiovascular events, each 1 mmol decrease in LDL cholesterol reduces the risk of cardiovascular events by 21% at 5 years.

Many patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes are prescribed with statins, both for primary prevention, before the first cardiovascular event, and for secondary prevention, to avoid recurrence.

However, compliance with these drugs may be difficult due to polypharmacy, side effects (myalgia) or tiredness. Indeed, the persistence of statin use, one year after its prescription, is estimated at 70% in the general population. However, there are no data in the French population, and in particular on French diabetic patients for whom the cardiovascular risk is increased compared to the general population.

The purpose of this study is to determine the compliance of diabetic patients with statins searching for important factors which could favor adherence.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Girerd testOther

    This is a simple and quick questionnaire, composed of 6 questions with a binary yes/no answer. It allows to assess the degree of compliance with the prescribed treatment to better identify the constraints related to the treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Compliance rate with statin measured by the Girerd test

    This is a simple and quick questionnaire, composed of 6 questions with a binary yes/no answer. It allows to assess the degree of compliance with the prescribed treatment and thus to better identify the constraints related to the treatment. The score varies from 0 to 6 depending on the presence of "yes". 0 "yes": Good compliance, more than 3 "yes": non compliance.

    Measured: Day 0

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Compliance rate with statin according to the type of prevention

    Type of prevention (primary/secondary) and compliance rate measured by the Girerd test

    Measured: Day 0

  2. Compliance rate with statin according to risk factors

    Link between compliance rate measured by Girerd test and potential factors analyzed: age, sex, polypharmacy, duration of diabetes, no previous cardiovascular history, no prior dyslipidemia, blood LDL level, duration of statin intake, modalities of treatment preparation, understanding of the benefits of treatment

    Measured: Day 0

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Non-insulin-dependent Diabetes, run by Lille Catholic University at 1 site in France.

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 5 inclusion and 2 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jul 2019. 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 France. 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 was stopped early (reason given: The study was conducted in the context of a medical thesis with a deadline.). 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?

Compliance rate with statin measured by the Girerd test (time frame: Day 0). 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 17 Jul 2019.
