Overview

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.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • previous diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus,with treatment including insulin and/or oral antidiabetic agent;
  • subjects without previous diagnosis of diabetes,but HbA1c admission \>= 6,5% during current hospital-stay
  • AMI with or without ST-elevation;
  • use of double antiplatelet therapy;
  • signed informed consent term

Exclusion Criteria

  • GFR \<30 ml/min;
  • use of DPP4 inhibitors or glucagon- like peptide-1(GLP1) analogue in the past 6 months;
  • use of strong inhibitors of cytochrome P450(CYP3A4/5) ou glucocorticoids;
  • severe systemic decompensation requiring insulin infusion;
  • Killip classification of myocardial infarction grade \>2;
  • previous history of pancreatitis

Arms & Interventions

treatment: DPP4 -i

Use of DPP4-i : sitagliptin 50 mg (if glomerular filtration rate-GFR \<50 ml/min at randomization) or 100 mg (if GFR\>50 ml/min at randomization),during 30 days,once-daily(OD) OR saxagliptin 2,5 mg (if glomerular filtration rate-GFR \<50 ml/min at randomization) or 5 mg (if GFR\>50 ml/min at randomization),during 30 days,once-daily(OD)

Intervention: sitagliptin OR saxagliptin

control

placebo tablets identical to active comparator,administered according to GFR at randomization,during 30 days,OD

Intervention: placebo

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

changes on platelet aggregability.

Time Frame: 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 Outcomes

  • changes on platelet aggregability.(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.)
