Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Eligible subjects should have CAD requiring elective PCI. Mild stenosis needs to exist within non-culprit major coronary artery. Since the current study enroll subjects who need glucose lowering therapy to achieve HbA1c (NGSP/IFCC) < 7.0%/53 mmol/mol, HbA1c (NGSP/IFCC) at screening should be between 7.0/53 and 10.0%/86 mmol/mol. In T2DM subjects who already receive sulphonylurea, nateglinide and/or insulin at screening, baseline HbA1c (NGSP/IFCC) should be below 10.0%/86 mmol/mol and the lowest cut-off is not set. Due to an elevated risk of hypoglycemia under these anti-diabetic agents, subjects with HbA1c (NGSP/IFCC) <7.0%/53 mmol/mol may have hypoglycemic events which require adequate glycemic control.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: The main exclusion criteria are listed in Table 3. Non-culprit vessel with its severe tortuousty and/or calcification will be excluded due to the risk of NIRS/IVUS imaging. Subjects with baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate <40 mL/min/1.73m2, those without any atherosclerotic lesions in their non-culprit vessels and patients who are taking or are scheduled to receive proprotein convertase subxilisin/kexin type 9 will not be eligible.
