Atherosclerosis, Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM)

Keywords

Major Adverse Cardiac and Cerebrovascular Events, Cilostazol, Aspirin

Brief summary

Patients with type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular risk factors are at increased risk of cardiovascular events. Therefore, a multi-center prospective randomized study will be conducted to compare the efficacy and safety of cilostazol and aspirin for the prevention of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) in high-risk patients with type 2 diabetes.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Incidence of Major Adverse Cardiac and Cerebrovascular Events (MACCE)Up to 156 weeksIncidence of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), defined as myocardial infarction, stroke, cardiac or peripheral revascularization, hospitalization for symptomatic vascular ischemia, amputation, hospitalization for heart failure, or cardiovascular disease-related death

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Incidence of Three-Point Major Adverse Cardiovascular EventsUp to 156 weeksIncidence of three-point major adverse cardiovascular events, including non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, and cardiovascular death
Incidence of Heart Failure EventsUp to 156 weeksIncidence of heart failure events during the study period
Incidence of Peripheral Vascular EventsUp to 156 weeksIncidence of peripheral vascular events, including limb ischemia, amputation, and revascularization.
Change in CK-MB LevelBaseline, 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 52 weeks, 104 weeks, and 156 weeksChange from baseline in serum creatine kinase-MB level.

Change in Fasting Glucose LevelBaseline, 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 52 weeks, 104 weeks, and 156 weeksChange from baseline in fasting glucose level
Change in HbA1c LevelBaseline, 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 52 weeks, 104 weeks, and 156 weeksChange from baseline in HbA1c level
Change in Insulin LevelBaseline, 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 52 weeks, 104 weeks, and 156 weeksChange from baseline in insulin level
Change in Total Cholesterol LevelBaseline, 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 52 weeks, 104 weeks, and 156 weeksChange from baseline in serum total cholesterol level
Change in Triglyceride(TG) LevelBaseline, 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 52 weeks, 104 weeks, and 156 weeksChange from baseline in serum TG level
Change in HDL Cholesterol LevelBaseline, 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 52 weeks, 104 weeks, and 156 weeksChange from baseline in serum high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol level
Change in LDL Cholesterol LevelBaseline, 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 52 weeks, 104 weeks, and 156 weeksChange from baseline in serum LDL(low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol level

Change in Body CompositionBaseline, 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 52 weeks, 104 weeks, and 156 weeksChange in body composition measured by BIA
Change in the Number of Metabolic Syndrome ComponentsBaseline, 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 52 weeks, 104 weeks, and 156 weeksChange in the number of metabolic syndrome components.
Change in Framingham Risk ScoreBaseline, 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 52 weeks, 104 weeks, and 156 weeksChange in Framingham Risk Score. Higher scores indicate a higher estimated risk of cardiovascular disease.
Change in PREVENT Risk ScoreBaseline, 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 52 weeks, 104 weeks, and 156 weeksChange in Predicting Risk of Cardiovascular Disease EVENTs (PREVENT) risk score. Higher scores indicate a higher estimated risk of cardiovascular disease.
Change in SCORE2Baseline, 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 52 weeks, 104 weeks, and 156 weeksChange in in Systematic COronary Risk Evaluation 2 (SCORE2). Higher scores indicate a higher estimated risk of cardiovascular disease.
Change in coronary artery calcium scoreBaseline and 156 weeksChange in coronary artery calcium score (CACS) measured by coronary computed tomography angiography The coronary artery calcium score is measured using the Agatston method; the minimum value is 0, there is no fixed maximum value, and higher scores indicate greater coronary artery calcification.
