About this study

Background: Dementia is an international public health problem, affecting approximately 50,000,000 people worldwide in 2018 and will triple by 2050; furthermore, reaching an approximate cost of 4 billion dollars. Given its high worldwide prevalence and probable underdiagnosis, the international guidelines for the assessment of dementia syndromes recommend the assessment of cognitive impairment in patients over 55 years of age as part of clinical practice in patients who presented an ischemic cerebrovascular event. Several risk factors associated with cognitive impairment in cerebrovascular disease are identified in the literature: 1) demographic factors (e.g., age over 65 years and female sex); 2) risk factors present prior to the ischemic stroke (e.g., cognitive impairment, physical impairment); 3) factors utilized to assess the severity of an ischemic stroke (e.g., supratentorial location, ischemic stroke in the dominant hemisphere, recurrence of ischemic strokes); 4) post-ischemic stroke factors (e.g., delirium and seizures); and 5) factors associated with neuroimaging findings (e.g., cerebral small vessel disease, cortical atrophy, and medial temporal lobe atrophy).

This is a randomized controlled trial in individuals with an acute ischemic stroke without dementia that will be treated with 10mg dapagliflozin PO q24h for 12 months and standard treatment against only standard treatment (i.e., statins, platelet antiaggregant, and hypoglycemic medications) when appropriate. The outcome measure evaluated will be global cognitive function. Cardiovascular risk factors will be associated with cognitive decline.

Read the detailed description

Detailed Description: This is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, 12-month longitudinal study performed at a single center (Hospital General de Zona con Medicina Familiar IMSS No. 21, León Guanajuato, México) designed to investigate the effect of dapagliflozin in participants with a recent acute stroke but no history of dementia (CDR score ≤ 0.5). A total of 270 participants are to be included (i.e., 135 on each arm).

Overall objective: To assess the effect of Dapagliflozin on cardiovascular risk (i.e., the volume of epicardial fat, volume of total carotid atherosclerotic plaque, and coronary artery calcium score) in patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease dependent on global cognitive function at a second level teaching hospital in Mexico.

Statistical analysis: Descriptive statistics will be reported for all included variables. Statistical analysis will be performed using SPSS 25 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL). All variables will be examined to determine the existence of outliers and whether they meet the assumptions about a Gaussian distribution. The Shapiro-Wilk tests will be used to determine normality distribution, as well as visual inspection of histograms and Q-Q plots. Demographic and clinical variables will be summarized in proportions and percentages. The categorical variables will be evaluated to determine statistical inferences with the Mann-Whitney U test. Continuous variables will be assessed for statistical inferences using t-tests (e.g., simple, paired, one, and two samples) and Levene's test to assess equality of variances. The Kaplan-Meier method will be used to calculate the distributions of mortality and development of mild amnestic cognitive disorder and dementia syndrome. The Gehan-Breslow-Wilcoxon method will be used to assess the equality of the mortality distributions and the development of mild amnestic cognitive disorder or dementia syndrome. A multivariate analysis will be performed with a Cox regression model to assess the variables that predict mortality, and the development of a mild amnestic cognitive disorder, or dementia syndrome at 6 and 12 months in case there are differences in mortality distributions. Statistical significance will be set at p=0.05 and a Bonferroni correction will be performed for multiple comparisons.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Dapagliflozin 10mg Tab, Statins (Cardiovascular Agents) and Platelet Antiaggregant in people with Stroke, Ischemic and Mild Cognitive Impairment, run by Jaime Daniel Mondragon at 1 site in Mexico.

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 19 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 4 Oct 2022. 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 Mexico. 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.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Contact Omar Jiménez-Zarazúa, M.D. (+524423421626, drzarazuainterna@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in Clinical Dementia Rating score as a proxy of cognitive deterioration (time frame: 6 and 12 months). 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 NCT05565976, which also lists 22 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 4 Oct 2022.
