Trial Summary

Do I need to stop my current medications to join the trial?

The trial information does not specify whether you need to stop taking your current medications. It's best to discuss this with the trial coordinators or your doctor.

What evidence supports the effectiveness of the drug AT-001 for treating diabetic cardiomyopathy?

The research highlights that diabetic cardiomyopathy is linked to metabolic disturbances in the heart, and while specific treatments like AT-001 are not directly mentioned, there is ongoing exploration of therapies targeting these metabolic issues. Some preclinical studies have shown promising results with antifibrotic and anti-inflammatory agents, which could be relevant to the development of AT-001.12345

How is the drug AT-001 different from other treatments for diabetic cardiomyopathy?

AT-001 is unique because it is specifically being tested for diabetic cardiomyopathy, a condition with no standard treatment options. Unlike other treatments that may focus on general heart failure, AT-001 is designed to target the specific heart issues caused by diabetes.16789

What is the purpose of this trial?

This trial is testing a new drug called AT-001 to see if it can help adults with a heart condition related to diabetes. The goal is to improve their heart function or prevent it from getting worse, especially for those at high risk of severe heart failure.

Eligibility Criteria

This trial is for adults with Diabetic Cardiomyopathy who are at high risk of developing heart failure. Participants must have Type 2 Diabetes and reduced exercise capacity (Peak VO2 < 75% of normal). They can't join if they've had severe heart issues, uncontrolled blood pressure, or a history of significant cardiac events.

Inclusion Criteria

I have Type 2 Diabetes.
My exercise capacity is less than 75% of what's expected for my age and gender.
I have heart problems related to diabetes.

Exclusion Criteria

I need treatment for a serious heart valve problem.
I have a serious irregular heartbeat.
Your blood pressure is higher than 140 over 90 at the initial check-up.

Interventions

  • AT-001
  • Placebo
Trial Overview The study tests the safety and effectiveness of AT-001 against a placebo in managing Diabetic Cardiomyopathy to prevent worsening into overt heart failure. It's conducted across multiple centers where participants are randomly assigned to either the drug or placebo group.
Participant Groups
3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Placebo Group
Group I: AT-001 Low DoseExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The total daily doses will be of 2g. The dose selection and the frequency of dosing was based on the results of the phase 1/2 study demonstrating that 2g/day of AT-001 is capable of producing a sufficient inhibition of the production of sorbitol (a pharmacodynamic biomarker of biological activity).
Group II: AT-001 High doseExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The total daily doses will be of 3g. The dose selection and the frequency of dosing was based on the results of the phase 1/2 study demonstrating that 3g/day of AT-001 is capable of producing the maximum inhibition of the production of sorbitol (a pharmacodynamic biomarker of biological activity).
Group III: Placebo ComparatorPlacebo Group1 Intervention
Placebo capsules will be used as comparator
