Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Change from baseline in 99mTc-MIBI washout rate at 52 weeks of treatment

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1) Myocardial fatty acid metabolism Change from baseline in 123I-BMIPP washout rate at 52 weeks of administration 2) Proteome analysis 1.Changes from baseline at 24 and 52 weeks of administration in the incidence of cardiovascular events (all-cause mortality, hospitalization for heart failure, myocardial infarction, and stroke) predicted to occur over a 4-year period, calculated based on the results of analysis of proteins listed in Appendix 1 of the study protocol (Names of proteins and their abbreviations predicting the risk of major cardiovascular events) 2. Change from baseline in expression levels at 24 and 52 weeks of administration of proteins related to the following pathologies: renal failure, dementia 3. Change from baseline in expression levels at 24 and 52 weeks of administration of the following biomarkers myocardial injury myocardial specific troponin concentration I and T renal and glomerular injury Collagen IV, cystatin C Pancreatic beta-cell injury Insulin Inflammation TNF-alpha, IL-6, CRP 4. Comprehensive expression changes from baseline at 24 and 52 weeks for proteins other than those mentioned above 3) Lipidome analysis Changes from baseline at 24 and 52 weeks after administration of the following long-chain fatty acids Long-chain fatty acids: Lauric acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, arachidic acid, behenic acid, lignoceric acid, palmitoleic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, gamma-linoleic acid, arachidonic acid, alpha-linolenic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid, docosahexaenoic acid 4) Cardiac function At 12 weeks after administration of the following evaluation items, Changes from baseline at 24 and 52 weeks Cardiac function evaluation items: Left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, left ventricular end-systolic diameter, left ventricular end-diastolic volume index, left ventricular end-systolic volume index, left ventricular ejection fraction, left ventricular mass index, left atrial diameter, left atrial volume index, right ventric
