Background Epidemiologic studies have shown a relationship betweenglycated hemoglobin levels and cardiovascular events in patientswith type 2 diabetes. We investigated whether intensive therapyto target normal glycated hemoglobin levels would reduce cardiovascularevents in patients with type 2 diabetes who had either establishedcardiovascular disease or additional cardiovascular risk factors.
Methods In this randomized study, 10,251 patients (mean age,62.2 years) with a median glycated hemoglobin level of 8.1%were assigned to receive intensive therapy (targeting a glycatedhemoglobin level below 6.0%) or standard therapy (targetinga level from 7.0 to 7.9%). Of these patients, 38% were women,and 35% had had a previous cardiovascular event. The primaryoutcome was a composite of nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatalstroke, or death from cardiovascular causes. The finding ofhigher mortality in the intensive-therapy group led to a discontinuationof intensive therapy after a mean of 3.5 years of follow-up.
Results At 1 year, stable median glycated hemoglobin levelsof 6.4% and 7.5% were achieved in the intensive-therapy groupand the standard-therapy group, respectively. During follow-up,the primary outcome occurred in 352 patients in the intensive-therapygroup, as compared with 371 in the standard-therapy group (hazardratio, 0.90; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.78 to 1.04; P=0.16).At the same time, 257 patients in the intensive-therapy groupdied, as compared with 203 patients in the standard-therapygroup (hazard ratio, 1.22; 95% CI, 1.01 to 1.46; P=0.04). Hypoglycemiarequiring assistance and weight gain of more than 10 kg weremore frequent in the intensive-therapy group (P<0.001).
Conclusions As compared with standard therapy, the use of intensivetherapy to target normal glycated hemoglobin levels for 3.5years increased mortality and did not significantly reduce majorcardiovascular events. These findings identify a previouslyunrecognized harm of intensive glucose lowering in high-riskpatients with type 2 diabetes. (ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT00000620
