Brief Summary:

Objectives:

The investigators examined whether rosiglitazone, a thiazolidinedione (TZD), is beneficial for pre-diabetes mellitus (DM) adults with documented coronary artery disease (CAD).

Background:

Microvascular and macrovascular complications are common in type 2 DM. There is no evidence about the effects of TZDs, synthetic peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-γ activators (insulin sensitizers and adipose transcriptional regulation and anti-inflammatory process activators) on pre-DM patients with documented CAD.


Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Prediabetes Coronary Artery Disease Insulin Resistance Glucose Intolerance Drug: placebo tablet Drug: rosiglitazone (4 mg)/day Phase 3

Detailed Description:

Materials and Methods:

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, patients will be randomly assigned to the TZD group and to the placebo group with a 6-month treatment period.

Biomarkers will also examined before and 6 months post-treatment during the trial.

The primary end-points will be the diagnosis of major cardiovascular events: myocardial infarction, overt heart failure, and surgery or coronary intervention for CAD.

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. major cardiovascular events, including myocardial infarction, overt heart failure, and surgery or coronary intervention for CAD [ Time Frame: at least 6 months follow-up of MACEs ]
    Primary end points: The primary end-point was defined as major cardiovascular events, including myocardial infarction, overt heart failure, and surgery or coronary intervention for CAD.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Biomarkers measurements [ Time Frame: Biomarkers were taken before the trial and 6 months later ]

    Resistin and adiponectin will be measured to evaluate insulin resistance; CCL/MCP-1 and hsCRP were also analyzed to evaluate inflammation status changes.

    Several vascular associated remodeling markers and proteins will also be measured.
