NCT05702463

Brief Summary

This phase 2 study will include patients suffering from type 2 diabetes mellitus and will first study their response to enteric coated aspirin at a dose of 80 mg per day for a 7-day period. Participants with an incomplete platelet inhibition after exposure to EC aspirin at doses of 80 mg once daily will be randomized to a random order of 3 different ASA regimens: EC ASA 162 mg once daily, EC ASA 81 mg twice daily and chewable ASA 40 mg twice daily. The aims are to determine the feasibility of a larger scale trial, and to determine the regimen associated with the lowest proportion of non-responders after randomization. Platelet function will be assessed at baseline and at day 7 of each arms of the study.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

  • Describe the screening rate to evaluate the feasibility of a larger scale randomized controlled trial.

    Determine the average number of potential participants referred to us from the Montreal Clinical Research Institute (IRCM), Centre Épic, Montreal Heart Institute and the COLCOT-T2D study who are screened per month. Hypothesis : at least 40 potential participants per month will be screened on average

    1 year

  • Describe the enrollment rate by the proportion of referred participants who are eligible to evaluate the feasibility of a larger scale randomized controlled trial.

    Hypothesis : at least 70 percent of referred patients will be eligible

    1 year

  • Describe the enrollment rate by the proportion of eligible participants who consent to evaluate the feasibility of a larger scale randomized controlled trial.

    Hypothesis : At least 40 percent of eligible patients will give their consent to participate in the run-in phase and the study

    1 year

  • Describe the retention rate to evaluate the feasibility of a larger scale randomized controlled trial.

    Determine the retention rate of randomized participants Hypothesis : at least 85 percent of all randomized subjects will complete all study visits

    1 year

  • Among initial ASA non-responder participants, define the proportion of participants that remain ASA non-responders with different formulations and dosing regimens of ASA.

    Hypothesis : in at least one of the regimens studied, the proportion of ASA non-responders will be less than 50 percent.

    1 year

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Adherence rate to study protocol

    1 year

  • Average time per participant required to complete study enrolment and all data collection.

    1 year

  • Proportion of non-responders participants at day 7 of 40 mg twice daily chewable ASA regimen, 81 mg twice daily EC ASA regimen and 162 mg once daily EC ASA regimen.

    1 year

  • For the run-in phase, characterize the prevalence of ASA non-responders at steady state following a 7-day treatment with ASA EC 81 mg once daily in participants with type 2 diabetes.

    1 year

  • Proportion of participants who are non-responders to ASA with each dose as measured by serum levels of thromboxane B2 (TxB2).
