Clinical Trial Details

Trial ID: L2734
Source ID: NCT00657280
Associated Drug: Sitagliptin
Title: Study of the Effect of Sitagliptin on Glucose (Sugar) Metabolism in Patients With Heart Failure
Acronym: S-001
Status: COMPLETED
Study Results: YES
Results: https://ClinicalTrials.gov/show/NCT00657280/results
Conditions: Heart Failure, Congestive
Interventions: DRUG: Sitagliptin
Outcome Measures: Primary: Determine the Effects of Sitagliptin on Myocardial Glucose Uptake Measured by Myocardial PET Scan, This study will investigate the effects of sitagliptin, a medicine commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes, on the utilization of glucose by the heart in patients with heart failure which is not due to heart attacks. We hope to determine whether improving the heart's ability to use glucose in the blood may help improve the function of the heart as well. If so, this may suggest that even people who do not have frank diabetes but who do have heart failure may benefit from using this medication. Baseline glucose uptake scans will be compared with the scans on sitagliptin thirty days after baseline, 30 days|Determine the Effects of Sitagliptin on Myocardial Glucose Uptake in Patients With Nonischemic Cardiomyopathy, This study will investigate the effects of sitagliptin, a medicine commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes, on the utilization of glucose by the heart in patients with heart failure which is not due to heart attacks.
