Conditions

Elective Percutaneous Coronary Intervention, Ischemic Reperfusion Injury

Brief summary

This is a two-arm randomized parallel study. Patients who will be meeting the above-mentioned criteria and agree to take part in the study, were asked to sign an informed consent prior conducting the study. The whole study protocol were presented to the local institutional review board (IRB).

Inclusion criteria

* Adult patients (age above 18) * Undergoing elective PCI

Exclusion criteria

1. Hypersensitivity to metformin or any component of the formulation 2. Patients with current or any history taking metformin either for diabetes mellitus or any other reason such as polycystic ovarian syndrome. 3. Patients diagnosed with type 1 or 2 diabetes mellitus. 4. Any oral or injectable hypoglycemic therapy (e.g. insulin, sulfonylureas) 5. Severe renal dysfunction (eGFR less than 30 mL/minute/1.73 m2 ) from any cause, including shock or septicemia; acute or chronic metabolic acidosis with or without coma (including diabetic ketoacidosis). 6. Treatment with systemic glucocorticoids within 3 months of randomization (due to its potential effect on plasma glucose and HbA1c levels). 7. Metabolic acidosis (total CO 2 below the laboratory lower limit of normal on most recent blood chemistry panel). 8. Need for coronary artery bypass grafting. 9. Participation in other clinical trial in the 30 days before enrollment. 10. The existence of a life-threatening disease with a life-expectancy of less than 6 months.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Postprocedural myocardial injury6 monthsthe occurrence of postprocedural myocardial injury, defined as a postprocedural elevation of CKMB or cTnI more than 1 times the 99 th percentile of the URL \[ 24 hours post PCI\]

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
CK-MB24 hours post PCIMean peak values of CK-MB after intervention
cTn24 hours post PCIMean peak values of cTnI after intervention
LVEF in percentBaseline- 6 monthsEcho: to measure LVEF in percent
LVMI in g/m2Baseline- 6 monthsleft ventricular mass index (LVMI) will be calculated in g/m2 using the sex and body surface area (m²) and measures of LVEDD in mm, IVSd in mm, PWd from the measures in the echocardiography
GFRBaseline- monthly- 6 monthsglomerular filtration rate (GFR) will be calculated (unit ml/min) using age in years, sex, body weight in kilograms and serum creatinine in mg/dL
Serum creatinine (SCr)Baseline- monthly- 6 monthsSerum creatinine (SCr) in mg/dL
Lactate concentrationBaseline - 6 monthslactate concentration unit in mmol/L
Glucometabolic StateBaseline - 6 monthsGlucometabolic State using HbA1c (unit mmols/mol)
Incidence of Cardiovascular EventBaseline - 6 monthsCardiovascular events including major cardiac adverse events (MACE; death, recurrent MI, target lesion revascularization), stroke, non-elective hospitalizations for chest pain or heart failure, all recurrent coronary interventions, and internal cardiac defibrillator implantations. Mortality will be divided into cardiac and non- cardiac. Cardiac death will be divided into three categories: heart failure, sudden death, and others.
Rate of hospitalizationthrough study completion, an average of 6 monthsThe number of hospitalizations within each group will be calculated during the study period.
