  Purpose

The purpose of this study is to determine whether treating pre-diabetic & pre-hypertensive individuals using multiple drugs intervention (anti-hypertensive drugs (i.e., ACEI) plus anti-glycemic drug (i.e., metformin) plus anti-hyperlipidemic drug (statin)) would lower Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) events.

Estimated Enrollment: 8900
Study Start Date: January 2012
Estimated Study Completion Date: December 2016
Estimated Primary Completion Date: July 2016 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
Experimental: Metformin+Enalapril+Simvastatin Drug: Metformin+Enalapril+Simvastatin
Poly-pill - composed of Metformin (500 mg), Enalapril (10 mg) and Simvastatin (10 mg) in single tablet given once daily after dinner for 4 years
Other Name: Poly-pill
Placebo Comparator: Placebo tablet Drug: Placebo tablet
Identical Placebo Tablet
Other Name: Placebo

Detailed Description:

The risks of CVD are not confined to a subset of established "hypertensive" or "diabetic" population, but also increase among those with suboptimal blood pressure and glycemic level, namely "pre-hypertensive" or "pre-diabetic" population. Evidence on the effectiveness of drug interventions to lower CVD events in pre-clinical stage population has been scant.
