Summary

The study goal was to understand the effect of Metformin on Age/Sex/Gene Expression Score (ASGES) or Corus CAD (henceforth "Corus") in pre-diabetic patients who are medication naive. This study provided data to determine if the Corus CAD (ASGES) signature was different in pre-diabetic patients when metformin was newly prescribed and taken.

Detailed description

The study goal was to understand the effect of Metformin on Age/Sex/Gene Expression Score (ASGES) or Corus CAD in pre-diabetic patients who are medication naive. This study provided data to determine if the Corus CAD (ASGES) signature was different in pre-diabetic patients when metformin was newly prescribed and taken. The primary aim of this study was to evaluate whether metformin used in pre-diabetic patients to prevent progression to type II diabetes had a significant effect on the gene expression levels measured in Corus. This was a prospective study. Subjects were enrolled from participating sites as applicable inclusion/exclusion criteria were met. The study aimed to enroll approximately fifty (50) patients.
