About this study

Official title: A Phase III Multi-Center, Double-Blind, Randomized, Parallel Group, Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trial in High-Risk Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) Subjects With Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) to Determine Whether Bromodomain Extraterminal Domain (BET) Inhibition Treatment With RVX000222 Increases the Time to Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events (MACE)

The purpose of this study is to determine whether bromodomain extraterminal domain (BET) inhibition treatment with RVX000222 in high-risk type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with coronary artery disease increases the time to major adverse cardiovascular events.

Read the detailed description

The majority (75%) of deaths in subjects with diabetes mellitus (DM) are due to atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD). Recent studies suggest a major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) rate of >11% over 18 months in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) despite a baseline LDL-C of <2.1 mmol/L. Bromodomains (BRDs) are a family of evolutionary conserved protein-interaction modules that play key functions in chromatin organization and regulation of gene transcription. One recognized family of bromodomain-containing proteins is the bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) family. BET inhibition represents a novel, epigenetic approach to treat CAD.

RVX000222 affects biological processes important in atherosclerosis and acute coronary events via selective inhibition of BET proteins. RVX000222 is available as a capsule formulation with standard excipients and established stability.

The BETonMACE study will focus on prevention of subsequent MACE in subjects with CAD and DM with high intensity statin therapy as co-medication.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Incidence of First Occurrence of Adjudication-confirmed Narrowly Defined MACE

    Incidence of first occurrence of MACE narrowly defined as a single composite endpoint of Cardiovascular (CV) Death (including undetermined cause of death) or Non-fatal Myocardial Infarction (MI) or Stroke. If a subject has multiple events, only the first event contributing to the composite endpoint is counted.

    Measured: 120 weeks

Secondary outcomes (13)
  1. Incidence of First Occurrence of Adjudication-confirmed Broadly Defined MACE

    First occurrence of MACE broadly defined as a single composite endpoint of Cardiovascular Death (CVD) (including undetermined cause of death) or Non-fatal Myocardial Infarction (MI), Stroke, or Hospitalization for CVD events (including unstable angina and evidence of new or presumed new progressive obstructive coronary disease or emergency revascularization procedures at any time and urgent revascularization procedures ≥30 days after the index event as defined by Hicks et al., 2014) . If a subject has multiple events, only the first event contributing to the composite endpoint is counted.

    Measured: 120 weeks

  2. Incidence of Hospitalization for Congestive Heart Failure (CHF)

    Measured: 120 weeks

  3. Incidence of All-cause Mortality

    Measured: 120 weeks

  4. Change in Apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA-I) Concentration From Baseline Over Time Within and Between Treatment Groups

    Measured: 120 weeks

  5. Change in Apolipoprotein B (apoB) Concentration From Baseline Over Time Within and Between Treatment Groups

    Measured: 120 weeks

  6. Change in LDL-C Concentration From Baseline Over Time Within and Between Treatment Groups

    Measured: 120 weeks

  7. Change in HDL-C Concentration From Baseline Over Time Within and Between Treatment Groups

    Measured: 120 weeks

  8. Change in Triglyceride (TG) Concentration From Baseline Over Time Within and Between Treatment Groups

    Measured: 120 weeks

  9. Change in Hemoglobin (Hb) A1c From Baseline Over Time Within and Between Treatment Groups

    Measured: 120 weeks

  10. Change in Glucose From Baseline Over Time Between and Within Treatment Groups

    Measured: 120 weeks

  11. Change in Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) From Baseline Over Time Within and Between Treatment Groups

    Measured: 172 weeks

  12. Change in C Reactive Protein (CRP) Concentration From Baseline Over Time Within and Between Treatment Groups

    Measured: 52 weeks

  13. Change in Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) From Baseline Over Time Within and Between Treatment Groups for Subjects With Impaired Renal Function at Baseline (eGFR <60 mL/Min/1.7m2)

    Measured: 120 weeks

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 23 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Aug 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 214 sites in Argentina, Mexico, Poland, Israel, Russia and 10 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 20 Aug 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of First Occurrence of Adjudication-confirmed Narrowly Defined MACE (time frame: 120 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02586155, which also lists 5 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Aug 2021.
