Main objective

Scope: Safety, Efficacy

To evaluate the effect of SGLT2i on coronary atheroscle-rosis progression on native (untreated) coronary segments in diabetic patients after an AMI treated with successful PCI.

Secondary objectives 5

  1. To assess the correlation between changes in markers of systemic inflammation and coro-nary atherosclerosis progression, based on the hypothesis of SGLT2i-mediated anti-inflammatory effect as a major determinant of their anti-atherosclerotic activity
  2. To perform a prospective evaluation of the adherence to SGLT2i therapy in diabetic women and men, and to report the relative incidence of specific causes for drug discontinuation in both genders
  3. To compare the degree of neointimal hyperplasia on coronary segments which have been treated during primary PCI in patients receiving versus not receiving SGLT2i. Neointimal hyper-plasia will be assessed and quantified by mean of repeat CCTAs
  4. To evaluate the relative decrease in the proportion of high-risk plaque features, as de-scribed using CCTA, at 1 year after AMI in patients who have been treated with SGLT2i
  5. To evaluate the efficacy in terms of improved glycaemic control of adding SGLT2i on top of optimal antidiabetic therapy

Eligibility criteria

Principal inclusion / exclusion criteria as submitted by sponsor

Inclusion criteria 6

  1. Age ≥18 years
  2. Established diagnosis of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus
  3. Hospital admission for AMI (with or without ST-segment elevation); AMI diagnosis should be confirmed with a troponin measurement according to the Fourth Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction
  4. Successful PCI
  5. Complete revascularization obtained within the index hospitalization
  6. Ability to provide informed consent

Exclusion criteria 9

  1. Known intolerance/contraindications to SGLT2i therapy
  2. Ongoing treatment with SGLT2i at the time of AMI
  3. Contraindications to undergo CCTA
  4. Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus
  5. Incomplete revascularization with indication to staged PCI on non-culprit lesions
  6. Left ventricular ejection fraction <35% prior to discharge
  7. Known allergy to aspirin or ticagrelor
  8. Known pregnancy
  9. Life expectancy <1 year for non-cardiac conditions

Endpoints

Primary and secondary outcome measures (English text)

Primary endpoints 1

  1. The primary endpoint will be the change in total coronary percentage atheroma volume (PAV) on native (untreated) segments assessed by coronary CT angiography (CCTA) from baseline to 12 months follow-up. Change in PAV is defined as the difference between PAV at baseline and PAV at 12 months follow-up (PAV change = baseline PAV - 12 months PAV).

Secondary endpoints 1

  1. The secondary endpoints will include: inflammatory biomarkers, biochemical markers of glycaemic control, features of high-risk plaque composition evaluated at CCTA, degree of neointimal hyper-plasia on treated coronary segments at CCTA, adherence to therapy.
