Are you living with

Type 2 Diabetes,
Pre-diabetes,
or Metabolic Syndrome

Learn about a no-cost research study aimed at transforming heart disease prevention.

Are you at risk of

Cardiovascular Disease

If you have Type 2 Diabetes, Pre-Diabetes, or Metabolic Syndrome, you may be at a higher risk of experiencing severe conditions such as heart attack, stroke, or atherosclerosis. Metabolic Syndrome includes at least three symptoms: high blood pressure, high blood sugar, large waist size, low HDL cholesterol, and high triglycerides. Atherosclerosis, caused by fatty plaque buildup, can narrow and harden your arteries, leading to restricted blood flow and severe health issues.

This clinical trial is investigating two different strategies to prevent complications from atherosclerosis in individuals with Type 2 Diabetes, Pre-Diabetes, or Metabolic Syndrome who do not have symptoms of heart disease. You will receive either standard risk-based care or a customized care plan using advanced technology and imaging of the heart and blood vessels.

The study is conducted at select centers across the U.S. If you qualify and participate, you’ll receive all study-related care at no cost. Reimbursement for travel and time may also be available.

FILL OUT THE FORM BELOW IF YOU MEET THE FOLLOWING CRITERIA

  • Male, 55 years of age or older
  • Female, 65 years of age or older
  • Have Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Pre-Diabetes or Metabolic Syndrome
  • Have not had a stroke, heart attack, or heart surgery
  • Have no current symptoms of heart disease

About the Study

The study uses cutting-edge technology and advanced imaging, specifically Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography (CCTA), to precisely identify heart complications caused by atherosclerosis, the build-up of plaque in the arteries. CCTA is a non-invasive imaging test that provides detailed pictures of the heart and blood vessels, helping clinicians create personalized prevention plans based on each person’s unique risk factors, rather than just traditional health markers.

The research study is looking for individuals without known cardiovascular symptoms but who are at increased risk for atherosclerosis due to factors such as age, Type 2 Diabetes, Pre-Diabetes, or Metabolic Syndrome. The study will compare two approaches: traditional risk factor care and a new method using advanced technology and CCTA for customized detection and prevention of atherosclerosis-related complications.

If you’re concerned about your heart health, this study may be right for you. It will last about 3½ to 5 years and includes cardiovascular evaluations, CCTA imaging, surveys, laboratory tests, and other medical exams. There is no cost to participate, and you may receive reimbursement for transportation and time.

Why participate?

If you have Type 2 Diabetes, Pre-Diabetes, or Metabolic Syndrome and are interested in early detection of serious heart conditions like heart attacks and strokes, you may qualify for a new research study offered at select centers across the U.S.

No-cost Study Care

You will receive study-related care from experienced doctors, nurses, and research staff.

Exams

The study will include cardiovascular evaluations, heart imaging (CCTA), laboratory work, surveys, and other examination visits with a trained investigator.

Reimbursement

You might be eligible to receive reimbursement for your time and travel.
