Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Active Comparator

Placebo Comparator

Arm Label

incretin arm

conventional hypoglycemic drug arm

Arm Description

T2DM with HF treated by CRTd participants will be assigned prospectively to an intervention (incretin therapy plus conventional hypoglycemic drug therapy) according to study protocol to evaluate the effect of the drug on cardiac deaths, all cause deaths, and hospital admission for heart failure.

T2DM with HF treated by CRTd participants will be assigned prospectively to placebo comparator (placebo plus conventional hypoglycemic drug therapy) according to study protocol to evaluate the effect of the drug on cardiac deaths, all cause deaths, and hospital admission for heart failure.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

all cause mortality, and cardiac cause mortality.

Secondary Outcome Measures

hospital admissions for HF

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Incretin therapy is a treatment for type 2 diabetes (T2DM) affected by heart failure (HF). In this study the investigators will recruit T2DM patients affected by HF with depressed ejection fraction and treated by Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). These patients will randomly be treated by incretin v/s conventional hypoglicemic drugs. In this patients investigators will report at follow up CRT-d responders rate, mortality, and hospital admission for HF worsening. Incretin may reduce hospital admissions for HF in T2DM v/s conventional hypoglicemic drugs.
