Summary

A three months, double-blind, randomised, parallel-group study evaluating the efficacy of sitagliptin (Januvia™) versus placebo on beta-cell function in patients with newly detected glucose abnormalities and acute myocardial infarction or unstable angina pectoris.

Primary endpoint Improvement in beta-cell function measured by means of the insulinogenic index (ΔI30/ΔG30) obtained from an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT).

Secondary endpoints

1. Improvement of glucose tolerance by means of an OGTT
2. Improvement in endothelial function
3. Improvement in incretin-independent beta-cell function measured as the Acute Insulin Response (ΔAIRG) during an intravenous glucose tolerance test
