If you are living with type 2 diabetes, it\u2019s time to talk about your increased risk of cardiovascular events.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Fortunately, the SURPASS-CVOT clinical research study is currently underway in your area.\u00a0 We are looking for volunteers to join SURPASS-CVOT, a clinical research trial that will test how effective an investigational study drug is when compared to dulaglutide (an approved diabetes medication) on major adverse cardiovascular events in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and a history of cardiovascular disease (CVD).\u00a0<\/p>\n

Any trial-related investigational medications, laboratory tests and assessments that are over and above normal medical care will be provided at no cost to you. Reimbursement may also be available for trial-related expenses (such as travel).<\/p>\n

If you would like to know more, please contact us. We will be happy to answer any questions that you may have. We can also schedule an appointment so that you can learn about the study in detail and allow us to check whether you and the study are a good match.<\/p>\n
