Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Patients will be given Vildagliptin 50mg daily and metformin or continue with their sulphonylurea and metformin algorithm to determine if Vildagliptin is effective in reducing cardiac risk profiles in South Asians. Patients diagnosed with Type II diabetes will be recruited into a 12-week, open labeled, randomized, case-controlled clinical study;Secondary Objective: The secondary outcome exploratory endpoints include cardiac autonomic function and continuous glucose monitoring testing and standardized quality of life measures. Safety measures will include glycosolated haemaglobin, lipid profiles, thyroid function tests, fasting glucose, liver function tests and full blood count. Further secondary measures include oxidative stress measurements.;Primary end point(s): We hypothesise that the enhanced cardiac risk in South Asians with T2DM reflects in part, increased glycaemic excursions and resultant periods of hypoglycaemia interspersed with episodes of oxidative stress. We also propose that vildagliptin by reducing glycaemic variability will decrease hypoglycaemia and reduce oxidative stress in diabetes to a greater extent than that achieved using sulphonylurea therapy. Ultimately we propose that this will translate into improved cardiovascular outcomes for South Asian patients with diabetes;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 3months

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): The secondary outcome measure is the difference in MAGE in the vildagliptin and sulphonylurea treated subjects;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 3months
