Study of Left Ventricular Function of Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Without Cardiovascular Disease (DIACAR)

April 26, 2023 updated by: Groupe Hospitalier Paris Saint Joseph

Type 2 diabetes is associated with high cardiovascular risk. Recent meta-analyzes suggest that the risk of hospitalization for heart failure in the diabetic is increased by 20% for each hemoglobin A1c point and that the risk of death from all causes or cardiovascular cause and the risk of hospitalization is significantly increased by 30 to 40% in patients with acute or chronic heart failure with diabetes.

Systematic analysis of cardiac function is not currently proposed in international recommendations even though some antidiabetic drugs have been associated with an increased risk of heart failure in large randomized controlled trials or an increase in adverse events in proof-of-concept studies of heart failure with or without diabetes. Observational studies suggest that hypoglycemic sulfonamides may increase the risk of developing heart failure. In contrast, two sodium-glucose cotransporter type 2 inhibitors (empagliflozin and canagliflozin) have recently demonstrated a significant reduction in hospitalizations for heart failure in two large randomized controlled trials.

The detection of subclinical left ventricular dysfunction is therefore essential to better assess the risk of cardiac decompensation and to identify the existence of possible contraindications to the use of certain classes of drugs used in diabetes. Recent studies suggest that the left ventricular ejection fraction measured on three-dimensional acquisitions is a prognostic value index greater than the ejection fraction measured by Simpson biplane method in two-dimensional ultrasound. Similarly, it seems that the analysis of global longitudinal deformation is a prognostic factor superior to the analysis of the ejection fraction (two-dimensional or three-dimensional). The investigators will analyze these different parameters to confirm these data.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The main objective of this study is to analyze left ventricular function by echocardiography in a prospective cohort of 200 patients with type 2 diabetes and without known cardiac dysfunction and to search for possible differences in clinical profile depending on the presence and type of cardiac function's impairment.

Patients will be classified into four categories according to the left ventricular function:

  • Normal heart function
  • Altered ejection fraction (<40%)
  • Ejection fraction preserved (> 50%) with structural abnormality (left ventricular hypertrophy, left atrial dilatation) or diastolic dysfunction
  • Moderately impaired ejection fraction "mid range" (40 to 49%)

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Experimental: Patients with Type 2 diabetes

One year after patient's inclusion, during the additional cardiology consultation, an echocardiography will be performed by the investigator to evaluate any changes.

Two years after the patient's inclusion, an investigator will contact by phone the general practitioner, cardiologist and / or diabetologist treating the patient to find out if any cardiovascular events occurred.
Diagnostic test: echocardiography
One year after patient's inclusion, an echocardiography / doppler will be performed to evaluate any changes.Two years after the patient's inclusion, an investigating cardiologist will contact the physician, cardiologist and / or diabetologist treating the patient by telephone to find out if any cardiovascular events have occurred.

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
