Registry summary

Text and fields below are the sponsor's entries at ClinicalTrials.gov, shown as posted.

This study is a prospective randomized study to examine the effects of exposure to dulaglutide on the prevention of stress-hyperglycemia and the metabolic inflammatory response in the perioperative period.

Interventions

  • Dulaglutide InjectionDrug
  • Saline InjectionOther

Arms2

  • Experimental

    Dulaglutide Arm

    Participants without a history of DM who are randomized to receive a single injection of dulaglutide (0.75 mg/0.5 mL solution in a single-dose pen) one to three days prior to surgery.

  • Placebo comparator

    Placebo Arm

    Participants without a history of DM who are randomized to receive a single injection of a placebo (saline injection of 0.5 mL pre-drawn solution) one to three days prior to surgery.

Primary outcomes1

Outcomes the sponsor listed as primary.

  1. Number of Participants With Blood Glucose Levels (BG) > 140 mg/dl During Post Operative Period

    Time frame · During the hospital stay (up to 12 days postoperatively)

    Registry description

    Stress-hyperglycemia is defined as any post-CABG hospital-obtained blood glucose (BG) levels \>140 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL). Information on BG measurements was collected both at bedside by glucose meter and by hospital laboratory. BG was measured every 1-2 hours during continuous insulin infusion (CII) in the ICU, and before meals and at bedtime after transition to regular wards.

Secondary outcomes(18)
  1. Mean Blood Glucose Levels During the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) Stay Postoperatively

    Time frame · During the ICU stay (up to 7 days postoperatively)

    Registry description

    To measure glucose control, the mean blood glucose levels in mg/dL were measured during the postoperative Intensive Care Unit (ICU) stay. Information on BG measurements was collected both at bedside by glucose meter and by hospital laboratory. BG was measured every 1-2 hours during continuous insulin infusion (CII) in the ICU, and before meals and at bedtime after transition to regular wards.

  2. Number of Participants Needing CII Treatment in the ICU

    Time frame · During the ICU stay (up to 7 days postoperatively)

    Registry description

    Patients with two consecutive BG \>180 mg/dl, or average daily BG \>180 mg/dl were started on rescue therapy with subcutaneous basal insulin (glargine or levemir) once daily. Information on BG measurements was collected both at bedside by glucose meter and by hospital laboratory. BG was measured every 1-2 hours during continuous insulin infusion (CII) in the ICU, and before meals and at bedtime after transition to regular wards. The number of participants needing CII while in the ICU postoperatively was compared between patients randomized to dulaglutide or placebo study arms.

  3. Number of Participants With Stress-hyperglycemia Requiring Rescue Therapy With Subcutaneous Insulin After Discontinuation of CII

    Time frame · During the hospital stay (up to 12 days postoperatively)

    Registry description

    Patients with two consecutive BG \>180 mg/dl, or an average daily BG \>180 mg/dl were started on rescue therapy with subcutaneous basal insulin (glargine or levemir) once daily. Information on BG measurements was collected both at bedside by glucose meter and by hospital laboratory. BG was measured every 1-2 hours during continuous insulin infusion (CII) in the ICU, and before meals and at bedtime after transition to regular wards. The number of participants in need of rescue therapy with subcutaneous insulin postoperatively, after CII was discontinued, was compared between study arms.

  4. Mean Blood Glucose Levels During the Hospital Stay

    Time frame · During the hospital stay (up to 12 days postoperatively)

    Registry description

    To measure glucose control, the mean blood glucose levels in mg/dL during the non-ICU hospital stay postoperatively were measured. Information on BG measurements was collected both at bedside by glucose meter and by hospital laboratory. BG was measured every 1-2 hours during continuous insulin infusion (CII) in the ICU, and before meals and at bedtime after transition to regular wards.

  5. Mean Units Per Hour of Insulin While in the ICU

    Time frame · During the ICU stay (up to 7 days postoperatively)

    Registry description

    The mean insulin dose during the time that participants were in the ICU is assessed as insulin infusion units per hour.

  6. Mean Insulin Dose Per Day While in the ICU

    Time frame · During the ICU stay (up to 7 days postoperatively)

    Registry description

    The mean insulin dose during the time that participants were in the ICU is assessed as insulin units per day.

  7. Duration of Continuous Insulin Infusion (CII)

    Time frame · During the hospital stay (up to 12 days postoperatively)

    Registry description

    The duration of continuous insulin infusion (CII) is assessed in hours.

  8. Days of Subcutaneous (SC) Insulin After Discontinuation of CII

    Time frame · During the hospital stay (up to 12 days postoperatively)

    Registry description

    Subcutaneous (SC) insulin use after continuous insulin infusion (CII) is discontinued is assessed as the number of days that SC insulin was required.

  9. Amount of SC Insulin Administered

    Time frame · During the hospital stay (up to 12 days postoperatively)

    Registry description

    The amount of subcutaneous (SC) insulin administered during the ICU and non-ICU hospital stay, among participants requiring SC insulin after discontinuing CII.

  10. Number of Participants Experiencing Hyperglycemic Events

    Time frame · During the hospital stay (up to 12 days postoperatively)

    Registry description

    Hyperglycemic events are defined as BG \> 200 mg/dl, during ICU and non-ICU hospital stay.

  11. Number of Participants Experiencing Hypoglycemic Events

    Time frame · During the hospital stay (up to 12 days postoperatively)

    Registry description

    Hypoglycemic events are defined as BG \<70, \< 54, and \<40 mg/dl occurring during ICU and non-ICU hospital stay.

  12. Number of Participants Experiencing Mortality and Complications

    Time frame · During the hospital stay (up to 12 days postoperatively)

    Registry description

    The number of participants experiencing a composite of mortality and complications. Complications include sternal wound infection, bacteremia, pneumonia, acute kidney injury, and acute myocardial infarction.

  13. Number of Participants Experiencing Gastrointestinal Adverse Events

    The number participants who experienced gastrointestinal adverse events of nausea, vomiting, ileus, pancreatitis.

  14. ICU Length of Stay

    Time frame · During the ICU stay (up to 7 days postoperatively)

    Registry description

    ICU length of stay is assessed as the mean number of days participants in each study arm spent in the ICU.

  15. Hospital Length of Stay

    Time frame · During the hospital stay (up to 12 days postoperatively)

    Registry description

    Hospital length of stay is assessed as the mean number of days participants in each study arm spent in the hospital.

  16. Number of ICU Readmissions

    Time frame · During the hospital stay (up to 12 days postoperatively)

    Registry description

    The number of readmissions to the ICU.

  17. Number of Cerebrovascular Events

    Time frame · During the hospital stay (up to 12 days postoperatively)
