Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Average glucose value during coronary ICU stay [ Time Frame: 24-48 hours ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Number of hypoglycemic episodes / total number of glucose measurements [ Time Frame: 24-48 hours ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Number of subjects with >1 hypoglycemic episode / total number of subjects [ Time Frame: 24-48 hours ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Serious adverse events (death, life-threatening event, prolonged hospitalization, disability or incapacity, congenital anomaly or birth defect, non-life threatening event) after discontinuation of study drug [ Time Frame: 30 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Estimated Enrollment: 40
Study Start Date: August 2008
Estimated Study Completion Date: September 2009
Estimated Primary Completion Date: September 2009 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
Experimental: Exenatide Drug: Exenatide
0.05 µg/min bolus of open-label exenatide followed by a constant infusion of 0.025 µg/min for 24-48 hours

Detailed Description:

Diabetic patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI) have particularly poor outcomes. Clinical practice guidelines from the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association for the treatment of patients with acute coronary syndromes call for treatment to achieve preprandial glucose <110 mg/dL, a maximum daily target <180 mg/dL, and a post-discharge hemoglobin A1c <7%. Initiation of aggressive insulin therapy is also warranted to achieve blood glucose <150 mg/dL during days 0-3 and 80-110 mg/dL when possible thereafter. To date, no studies have been conducted assessing the efficacy of intravenous exenatide administration on achieving glucose lowering in hyperglycemic coronary ICU patients.
