DPP-4 Inhibitors and Acute Myocardial Infarction:Effects on Platelet Function
- Conditions
- Platelet Aggregation During Acute Myocardial Infarction
- Interventions
- Drug: placebo
- Registration Number
- NCT02377388
- Lead Sponsor
- University of Sao Paulo General Hospital
- Brief Summary
Cardiovascular events are the main cause of mortality in diabetic patients ,on the other hand,during an acute myocardial infarction(AMI),hyperglycemia increases mortality and is related to different pathophysiologic processes.
More important evidence regarding the effect of glycemic control on AMI patients prognosis is contradictory,and the potential benefits of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors(DPP4-i) in this setting is unknown.
The aim of this study is to assess the presence of pleiotropic effects of DPP4-i(sitagliptin or saxagliptin) and their relationship with glycemic control during in-hospital phase of AMI.
- Detailed Description
Randomized clinical trial,double-blinded,placebo-controlled, in a single center, to assess the influence of DPP4-i on platelet aggregability in type 2 diabetic patients with acute myocardial infarction in use of dual anti platelet therapy (DAPT) .
Others exploratory analysis include:glycemic control ,infarct size,genetic analysis and cholesterol metabolism.
After giving signed informed consent,eligible subjects will be randomly allocated to receive saxagliptin or placebo, in the first 48 hours (+-24) after the beginning of an AMI.
The investigator and subjects will be blinded to trial treatment,and a person not involved in trial conduct will prepare the doses of study drug.The doses will be administered by mouth,in a once daily basis by the investigator.
Blood samples will be collected by the investigator according to pre-specified outcomes and time frames.
Evaluation of glycemic control by CGM will be carried out by the investigator,including insert and withdrawal of the device.
Treatment of the acute event,(AMI) will be done according to routine procedures from coronary care unit.
Serious adverse event report taking into consideration all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, hospitalization for heart failure and pancreatitis, will be done according to presence of these events.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method changes on platelet aggregability. baseline and 4(+-2) days after drug exposure. Comparison on platelet function between two therapeutic arms in a double-blind randomized fashion. Platelet aggregability will be measured 4(+-2) days after drug exposure,using a point-of-care test (VerifyNow Aspirin) in type 2 diabetic patients with AMI on dual antiplatelet therapy (ASA+ ticagrelor or clopidogrel according to institutional routine).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method changes on platelet aggregability. baseline and 30(+-5) days after drug exposure. Primary outcome measure analyzed at baseline and 30(+-5) days after drug exposure.
platelet aggregability differences by two point-of-care methods. baseline and 30(+-5) days after drug exposure. Comparison on platelet aggregability by two different methods (Verify Now and Multiplate .
