What is being measured

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

  1. Change from baseline in carotid intima-media thickness

    Measured: Baseline to Year 3

  2. Incidence and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  3. Safety assessed by vital signs: body temperature

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  4. Safety assessed by vital signs: pulse rate

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  5. Safety assessed by vital signs: respiratory rate

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  6. Safety assessed by vital signs: blood pressure (systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure)

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  7. Number of participants with abnormal laboratory values and/or adverse events related to treatment

    Measured: Up to 3 years

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Death rate

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  2. Incidence of any vascular event

    Vascular events include sudden death, death caused by the vascular event, non-fatal coronary hear disease (CHD), non-fatal cerebrovascular diseases, and non-fatal aorta and peripheral artery disease (PAD)

    Measured: Baseline to Year 3

  3. Change from baseline in Ankle-brachial index

    Measured: Baseline to Year 3

  4. Change from baseline in Pulse wave velocity

    Measured: Baseline to Year 3

  5. Change from baseline in Oxidative stress indices

    Oxidative stress indices: superoxide dismutase and nitrotyrosine

    Measured: Baseline to Year 3

  6. Change from baseline in value of VCAM-1

    VCMA-1: vascular cell adhesion molecule

    Measured: Baseline to Year 3

  7. Change from baseline in value of TNF-α

    TNF: tumor necrosis factor

    Measured: Baseline to Year 3

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Beraprost and Aspirin in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Astellas Pharma Inc at 6 sites in China.

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 6 inclusion and 4 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Jun 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in China. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Upon interim analysis, sponsor's decision due to absence of demonstration of efficacy.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Change from baseline in carotid intima-media thickness (time frame: Baseline to Year 3). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 21 Jun 2016.
