About this study

Official title: Feasibility and Impact of an Intensive Team-based Intervention on Prediabetes Remission in Patients With Coronary Heart Disease

To evaluate the feasibility of a 6-month multidisciplinary program to reverse prediabetes in adults with coronary heart disease using the Mediterranean diet, intermittent fasting and exercise.

Read the detailed description

The proposed study will assess the feasibility of an intensive lifestyle program to reverse newly onset prediabetes (HbA1c ≥ 5.7% to 6.4%) in patients with coronary heart disease that would otherwise start a standard cardiac rehabilitation programme (12 weeks with twice weekly exercise, nutrition, and nursing counselling). The patients will be offered an upgraded 6-month intensive team-based multidisciplinary stepwise program with the goal of remitting prediabetes. The program will consist of a 3-month synchronous nutritional, exercise, and motivational intervention and of a 3-month maintenance and follow-up period.

The DIABEPIC prevent 1 study is a single-arm, open-label study aiming to demonstrate the feasibility of an intensive multidisciplinary stepwise intervention in newly diagnosed prediabetic and coronary heart disease patients, ultimately aiming to remit prediabetes.

The purpose of this first study is to devise and iteratively improve participant recruitment and adherence strategies for a possible future randomized controlled trial. It also includes as goals: to study the efficacy and adherence of an intensive multicomponent lifestyle intervention, to study the proportion of patients that improve or remit their insulin resistant state, to study the changes in a variety of anthropomorphic, physical, analytic, vascular and test parameters and to better characterize the factors associated with prediabetes remission.

What is being measured

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

  1. Feasibility of an intensive multidisciplinary program based on lifestyle changes in coronary heart disease patients recently diagnosed with prediabetes that are referred to the Centre EPIC.

    Total recruitment, recruitment rate, compliance and completion rate at 3 months after the start of the intervention

    Measured: at 3 months after the start of the intervention

  2. Feasibility of an intensive multidisciplinary program based on lifestyle changes in coronary heart disease patients recently diagnosed with prediabetes that are referred to the Centre EPIC.

    Total recruitment, recruitment rate, compliance and completion rate at 6 months after the start of the intervention

    Measured: at 6 months after the start of the intervention

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Proportion of prediabetic participants (HbA1c ≥ 5.7% to 6.4% at the start of the program) in complete remission of prediabetes.

    Remission of prediabetes will be defined by the following 3 criteria:

    1. An HbA1c < 5.7% at 3 months of intervention (Metabolic criteria).
    2. Which is maintained at 6 months (Duration criteria).
    3. Without the use of glucose-lowering agents (pharmacological criteria).

    Proportion of prediabetic patients that reach an HbA1c < 5.7% at 6 months of intervention will also be studied

    Measured: at 3 and 6 months of the start of the intervention

  2. Evolution of the HOMA-IR between the start of the program, the end of intervention (3 months) and the follow-up visit (6 months).

    HOMA-IR is a marker of insulin resistance

    Measured: at 3 and 6 months of the start of the intervention

(time frame: at 3 months after the start of the intervention). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT05459987, which also lists 7 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.
