Evaluation of Losartan and Perindopril in Blacks Type 2 Diabetics Patients

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT04222686
Lead Sponsor
Yaounde Central Hospital
Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to compare the short-term effects of ACEi and angiotensin II receptor blockers on cardiac and renal protection in black type 2 diabetics patients CARE-PLP is a double-arm, double-blind, randomized and parallel clinical trial conducted at the National Obesity Center in the Yaoundé Central Hospital. A population of Type 2 diabetes patients, with hypertension and / or microalbuminuria and who are not taking ACEi or angiotensin receptors blockers, is randomize into two groups. Depending on the group, 10 mg Perindopril or 100 mg Losartan is add to the usual treatment for each patient. The patients are followed-up for a period of 08 weeks. The primary outcome is the variation of exercise induced urinary albumin excretion after 08 weeks of intervention.

Detailed Description

Given the particularity of the renin-angiotensin system in black subjects, the CARE-PLP study fulfills this objective with the comparison of Losartan and Perindopril after 08 weeks of administration in a subsaharan African population.

Aim: The aim of this study is to compare the short-term effects of ACEi and angiotensin II receptor blockers on cardiac and renal protection in black type 2 diabetics patients

Methods: CARE-PLP is a double-arm, double-blind, randomized and parallel clinical trial conducted at the National Obesity Center in the Yaoundé Central Hospital. A population of Type 2 diabetes patients, with hypertension and / or microalbuminuria and who are not taking ACEi or angiotensin receptors blockers, is randomize into two groups. Depending on the group, 10 mg Perindopril or 100 mg Losartan is add to the usual treatment for each patient. The patients are followed-up for a period of 08 weeks. The primary outcome is the variation of exercise induced urinary albumin excretion after 08 weeks of intervention.

Progress: Recruitment for CARE-PLP was completed in february 2018 with 29 patients.
