Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether MC-1 alone and in combination with an ACE inhibitor is effective in reducing blood pressure and metabolic dysfunctions associated with diabetes


Clinical Trial Description

Hypertension is an extremely common co-morbid condition in diabetics, affecting up to 11 million patients, depending on obesity, ethnicity and age. Hypertension substantially increases the risk of both macrovascular and microvascular complications including stroke, coronary artery disease, peripheral vascular disease, retinopathy, nephropathy and possibly neuropathy.

In recent years, adequate data from well-designed randomized clinical trials have demonstrated the effectiveness of aggressive treatment of hypertension in reducing diabetic complications. In the epidemiological UK Prospective Diabetes Study (UKPDS), each 10 mmHg decrease in mean systolic blood pressure was associated with reductions in risk of 12% for any complication related to diabetes, 15% for deaths related to diabetes, 11% for myocardial infarction and 13% for microvascular complications. Currently the consensus guidelines recommend a blood pressure target of <130/80 mmHg in diabetic patients with hypertension, even though they recognize many people will require three or more drugs to reach this goal.

MC-1 is a naturally occurring metabolite of vitamin B6, and thus has very low toxicity. Evidence from pre-clinical studies suggests that MC-1 has beneficial effects on hypertension and metabolic dysfunction. This trial will assess the effects of MC-1 alone and MC-1 in combination with an ACE inhibitor compared to placebo on hypertension and parameters of metabolic function in type 2 diabetic patients. ;
