NCT04286399

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to identify patients with DM at high risk of CVD using elevated N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels (\>125pg/mL), and (2) intensify therapy using renin-angiotensin system (RAS) antagonists, beta-blockers and sodium glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) for primary prevention of cardiovascular events in this high-risk DM population.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Combined endpoint based on the first occurrence of cardiovascular death or major adverse cardiovascular event

    Stroke/myocardial infarction/heart failures events

    48 months

Study Arms (2)

Intensive Treatment Group

OTHER

High dose of RAASi and beta-blockers (unless contraindicated) as well as preferential use of SGLT2i as per local drug label guidelines on top of standard therapy.

Drug: Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitorsDrug: Beta blockerDrug: SGLT2 Inhibitor - Sodium Glucose Cotransporter Subtype 2 Inhibitor Product

Control Group

NO INTERVENTION

Standard therapy where the use of SGLT2i at randomization is not encouraged but RAASi and beta-blockers (except for maximal dosage) are allowed. Prescription or up-titration of the study drugs listed under Intensive Treatment is not encouraged. If investigators/treating physicians feel that further prescription or up-titration is required, a thorough justification is mandatory. Unless there is clinically irrefutable reason, every attempt should be made to use other blood pressure lowering drugs than RAASi or beta-blockers, as well as glucose lowering drugs than SGLT2i, in the control group.

Interventions

Research participants in the intensive therapy arm should be strongly encouraged to follow the intensive treatment strategy. Every attempt should be made to up-titrate RAS-antagonists and beta-blockers (max dosage, unless contraindicated) as well as preferentially use SGLT2i (standard dosage, as required) throughout the trial.

Also known as: Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, Angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs)
