What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. To evaluate the effect of vildagliptin on left ventricular function in patients with T2DM and CHF (NYHA class I-III) by showing that vildagliptin is at least not inferior to placebo with respect to change in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).

    Time frame: 52 weeks

Secondary outcomes

  1. To evaluate the overall safety of vildagliptin versus placebo in patients with T2DM and CHF (NYHA class I - III) over 52 weeks of treatment with special regard to signs and symptoms of heart failure.

    Time frame: 52 weeks

  2. To evaluate the efficacy of vildagliptin in patients with T2DM and CHF (NYHA class I-III) by assessing the HbA1c reduction with vildagliptin compared to placebo after 16 weeks of treatment.

    Time frame: 52 weeks
