Incretin and CRTd.

September 12, 2017 updated by: Celestino Sardu, University of Campania "Luigi Vanvitelli"

Incretin Treatment Effect in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients Affected by Heart Failure With Depressed Ejection Fraction, and Treated by Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy With a Defibrillator.

Incretin therapy is a treatment for type 2 diabetes (T2DM) affected by heart failure (HF). In this study the investigators will recruit T2DM patients affected by HF with depressed ejection fraction and treated by Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). These patients will randomly be treated by incretin v/s conventional hypoglicemic drugs. In this patients investigators will report at follow up CRT-d responders rate, mortality, and hospital admission for HF worsening. Incretin may reduce hospital admissions for HF in T2DM v/s conventional hypoglicemic drugs.

  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: incretin arm
T2DM with HF treated by CRTd participants will be assigned prospectively to an intervention (incretin therapy plus conventional hypoglycemic drug therapy) according to study protocol to evaluate the effect of the drug on cardiac deaths, all cause deaths, and hospital admission for heart failure.
Drug: Incretin Effect
The patients will receive incretins therapy.
Device: Cardiac Resynchronization therapy defibrillator device
The patients will receive a Cardiac Resynchronization therapy defibrillator device
Placebo Comparator: conventional hypoglycemic drug arm
T2DM with HF treated by CRTd participants will be assigned prospectively to placebo comparator (placebo plus conventional hypoglycemic drug therapy) according to study protocol to evaluate the effect of the drug on cardiac deaths, all cause deaths, and hospital admission for heart failure.
Device: Cardiac Resynchronization therapy defibrillator device
The patients will receive a Cardiac Resynchronization therapy defibrillator device
