Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the effect of metformin in reducing the rate of unplanned coronary revascularization in nondiabetic patients treated with percutaneous coronary angioplasty (PCI) for acute coronary syndrome.;Secondary Objective: 1. To evaluate the effects of metformin on other major cardiovascular events in nondiabetic patients treated with percutaneous coronary angioplasty (PCI) for acute coronary syndrome. 2. To assess the safety of metformin use in nondiabetic patients treated with percutaneous coronary angioplasty (PCI) for acute coronary syndrome.;Primary end point(s): 1. The need to perform unplanned PCI or CABG after successful last stage of full revascularization because of ACS;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1. The need to perform unplanned PCI or CABG after successful last stage of full revascularization because of ACS | — |

Non-fatal myocardial infarction after successful final stage of revascularization due to ACS in the 30-month follow-up period 4. Non-fatal stroke after successful final stage of revascularization due to ACS in the 30-month follow-up period ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1. The percentage of cardiac deaths after successful final stage of revascularization due to ACS in the 30-month follow-up period 2. All-cause death rate after successful final stage of revascularization due to ACS in the 30-month follow-up period 3. The percentage of non-fatal myocardial infarctions after successful final stage of revascularization due to ACS in the 30-month follow-up period 4. Percentage of non-fatal strokes after successful final stage of revascularization due to ACS in the 30-month follow-up period 5. To assess the safety profile of metformin in this patient population based on the rate of adverse events recorded | — |
