About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Unicenter, Parallel Study of the Effect of Dapagliflozin on Central Blood Pressure Reduction Compared to Glimepiride in Adult Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Inadequate Glycemic Control.

This superiority of central pressure versus peripheral measures to predict cardiovascular events has also been reported in general population or in elder people

Read the detailed description

The prognostic value of central systolic/diastolic pressure, central pulse pressure and AI has been well demonstrated, firstly after CAFÉ study, with 2073 hypertensive subjects followed up 3.4 years. It also evidenced higher prognostic value of central blood pressure compared to peripheral blood pressure. One year later, the STRONG study, showed central pulse pressure to be an independent cardiovascular risk factor as well as higher prognostic value compared to peripheral pulse pressure (Hazard ratio; 1,1510 mmHg Vs 1,10mmHg; X2: 13,4; p < 0,001). Those subjects with higher central blood pressure and central pulse pressure showed higher incidence of cardiovascular events. This superiority of central pressure versus peripheral measures to predict cardiovascular events has also been reported in general population or in elder people.

Finally, it has been also reported that dapagliflozin modestly reduces systolic blood pressure in patients with T2DM who were mostly receiving treatment for hypertension. Despite office blood pressure remains the gold standard method for screening, diagnostic and treatment of hypertension, it has been also well demonstrated that ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) better estimates cardiovascular risk and target organ damage than office blood pressure. It still remains unclear the effects on 24 hours blood pressure reduction with SGLT-2 inhibitors.

The effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on central blood pressure reduction have not been documented.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Dapagliflozin 10 mgDrug

    Also called Dapagliflozin

    Dagliflozin will be administred once daily before the first meal of the day for the duration of the study or until early discontinuation. Subjects will take the first dose of study drug at the study centre on Day 1.

    On the day of study visits when fasting blood samples are collected, subjects will be instructed to refrain from taking the study drug before the clinic visit. The subject will be instructed to take the dose of study drug before the subject´s next meal.

    The study drug must be swallowed whole with liquid and not chewed, divided, dissolved or crushed. If the subject doesn´t take the study drug within 12 hours after the first meal of the day, the dose of the study drug should be skipped for that day and keep on taking the study drug on the following day before the first meal.

  • Glimepiride 4 mgDrug

    Also called Glimepiride

    Glimepiride will be administred once daily before the first meal of the day for the duration of the study or until early discontinuation. Subjects will take the first dose of study drug at the study centre on Day 1.

    On the day of study visits when fasting blood samples are collected, subjects will be instructed to refrain from taking the study drug before the clinic visit. The subject will be instructed to take the dose of study drug before the subject´s next meal.

    The study drug must be swallowed whole with liquid and not chewed, divided, dissolved or crushed. If the subject doesn´t take the study drug within 12 hours after the first meal of the day, the dose of the study drug should be skipped for that day and keep on taking the study drug on the following day before the first meal.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Dapagliflozin 10 mg and Glimepiride 4 mg in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by IInstituto Gallego de Medicina Vascular at 1 site in Spain.

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 4 inclusion and 20 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Mar 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Spain. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Alvaro Hermida, MD, PhD (0034 981 552 200, alvaro.hermida.ameijeiras@sergas.es), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Effect of dapagliflozin relative to glimepiride at 24 weeks of treatment period regarding central systolic blood pressure (time frame: 24 weeks). 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 29 Mar 2017.
