Trial Outcomes & Findings for SomaSignal Tests on Medical Management and Change in Risk in Patients With Diabetes (NCT NCT05256706)

NCT ID: NCT05256706

Last Updated: 2025-01-09

Results Overview

The number of participants with type 2 diabetes (T2D) who had changes in prescriptions aligned with SSCVD results at baseline will be reported for the informed group. For the uninformed group, this represents the number of participants who had prescription changes, even though the healthcare provider (HCP) was not informed of the results. SSCVD results from participants at both the baseline and 6-month periods will be provided to the study team during the 6-month study visit. Any recommendations made by physicians to participants, after these test results, will be collected. Medical records will be reviewed to assess any changes in treatment strategies.

Measure
SomaSignal Informed Medical Management SSCVD
Blood draw for SSCVD test at baseline and 6 months (±50 days). SomaSignal Cardiovascular Risk (SSCVD) results will be sent to the providers and participants approximately 2-4 weeks after testing. SomaSignal Informed Medical Management SSCVD: For participants randomized to the Informed arm, the SSCVD test results will be provided to the participant's clinicians approximately 2-4 weeks after the baseline blood draw. Clinicians will discuss results with the participant and make adjustments to the care plan as needed based on the SSCVD test results within 50 days of receiving results. Clinicians may advise participants to (i) either change the doses of existing medications within existing guidelines, (ii) prescribe additional guideline-based medications, (iii) advise additional lifestyle interventions, or (iv) advise no change. This information will be documented in the case report forms. This test is neither intended to diagnose cardiovascular disease (CVD) nor replace the standard of care protocols for this disease. The physician should not rely solely on this information to make a decision on the best course of action for this patient.
Standard of Care (Uninformed Arm)
Blood draw for SSCVD test at baseline and 6 months (±50 days). SomaSignal Cardiovascular Risk (SSCVD) results will not be provided to the provider or participant until the 6-month visit. Standard of Care: Clinicians will provide the standard of care based on routine test results and without the SSCVD results. The SSCVD and SomaSignal Metabolic Factor Panel results from participants from both the baseline and 6-month period will be provided to the study team at the 6-month study visit. The SomaSignal Metabolic Factor tests include evaluation of Liver Fat, Glucose Tolerance, Kidney Function, Alcohol Impact, Cardiorespiratory Fitness/oxygen consumption (VO2) max, Resting Energy Rate, Body Fat Percentage, Visceral Fat, and Lean Body Mass. Any recommendations made to the participant by the physicians, based on obtaining the aforementioned test results will be collected.

The SSCVD and SomaSignal Metabolic Factor Panel results from participants from both the baseline and 6-month period will be provided to the study team at the 6-month study visit. The SomaSignal Metabolic Factor tests include evaluation of Liver Fat, Glucose Tolerance, Kidney Function, Alcohol Impact, Cardiorespiratory Fitness/oxygen consumption (VO2) max, Resting Energy Rate, Body Fat Percentage, Visceral Fat, and Lean Body Mass. Any recommendations made to the participant by the physicians, based on obtaining the aforementioned test results will be collected.

Population: Participants with valid data who completed the study visit.

Participants will complete a questionnaire on personal tobacco use and exposure to second-hand smoke at both the baseline and follow-up visits. Responses are provided as categorical, multiple-choice options, and no summary score will be calculated for tobacco exposure. Data will also be extracted from the EMR.

SomaSignal Informed Medical Management SSCVD
n=70 Participants
Blood draw for SSCVD test at baseline and 6 months (±50 days). SomaSignal Cardiovascular Risk (SSCVD) results will be sent to the providers and participants approximately 2-4 weeks after testing. SomaSignal Informed Medical Management SSCVD: For participants randomized to the Informed arm, the SSCVD test results will be provided to the participant's clinicians approximately 2-4 weeks after the baseline blood draw. Clinicians will discuss results with the participant and make adjustments to the care plan as needed based on the SSCVD test results within 50 days of receiving results. Clinicians may advise participants to (i) either change the doses of existing medications within existing guidelines, (ii) prescribe additional guideline-based medications, (iii) advise additional lifestyle interventions, or (iv) advise no change. This information will be documented in the case report forms. This test is neither intended to diagnose cardiovascular disease (CVD) nor replace the standard of care protocols for this disease. The physician should not rely solely on this information to make a decision on the best course of action for this patient.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 months and 12 months

Population: Participants with valid data who completed the study visit.

A questionnaire will be provided at baseline and follow-up visit asking about physical activity habits. The questionnaire asks respondents how active they are during leisure time and has four response options: * Mainly sedentary (e.g. sitting, reading, watching television) * Mild exercise, minimal effort (eg. yoga, archery, sport fishing, easy walking at least 3 times per week) * Moderate exercise (eg. walking, bicycle riding, or light gardening at least 4 hours per week) * Strenuous exercise (heart beats rapidly e.g. running/jogging, football, vigorous swimming at least 3 times per week) A summary score is not calculated for this assessment. Data will also be extracted from EMR.
