简要总结
To determine whether addition of Carvedilol CR to diabetic patients with hypertension who are receiving the ACEi,Lisinopril,will provide added benefits to blood vessels when compared to treatment with Lisinopril alone.It is believed that carvedilol provides added benefits by suppressing free radicals(charged substances that cause damage to the body ) and inflammation.
详细描述
Type 2 diabetes is an atherosclerotic, pro-inflammatory and pro-oxidative stress.Both vascular oxidative stress and inflammation are CVD risk factors and impact endothelial function.
Carvedilol has been demonstrated in preclinical and clinical studies (although limited in size) to exert anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties: (1) reduce the inflammation markers such as high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP); (2) reduce oxidative stress via dually eliminating existing reactive oxygen species (ROS) and suppressing the generation of ROS; (3) prevent lipid peroxidation in myocardial cell membrane; (4) protect endothelial and vascular muscle cells from oxygen radical-mediated injury.
This project is about studying the effect of carvedilol CR on blood vessels of diabetic hypertensive patients as compared to Lisinopril alone.
This study involves weaning patient off their current antihypertensive medications and starting them on Lisinopril with Carvedilol CR or lisinopril alone for 6 months and studying the effects of the drugs during this period and thereafter.

排除标准
- •Has any clinically significant abnormality identified in the screening physical examination, laboratory tests or electrocardiogram which, in the judgement of the investigator, would preclude safe completion of the study
- •Is female of childbearing potential
- •Has any of these cardiac conditions: uncontrollable or symptomatic arrhythmias, unstable angina, sick sinus syndrome or second or third degree heart block (unless treated with a permanent, functioning pacemaker), bradycardia (heart rate <55 bpm), and stroke within three months of study screening, and history of myocardial infarction.
