Background During the United Kingdom Prospective Diabetes Study(UKPDS), patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who receivedintensive glucose therapy had a lower risk of microvascularcomplications than did those receiving conventional dietarytherapy. We conducted post-trial monitoring to determine whetherthis improved glucose control persisted and whether such therapyhad a long-term effect on macrovascular outcomes.
Methods Of 5102 patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes,4209 were randomly assigned to receive either conventional therapy(dietary restriction) or intensive therapy (either sulfonylureaor insulin or, in overweight patients, metformin) for glucosecontrol. In post-trial monitoring, 3277 patients were askedto attend annual UKPDS clinics for 5 years, but no attemptswere made to maintain their previously assigned therapies. Annualquestionnaires were used to follow patients who were unableto attend the clinics, and all patients in years 6 to 10 wereassessed through questionnaires. We examined seven prespecifiedaggregate clinical outcomes from the UKPDS on an intention-to-treatbasis, according to previous randomization categories.
Results Between-group differences in glycated hemoglobin levelswere lost after the first year. In the sulfonylurea–insulingroup, relative reductions in risk persisted at 10 years forany diabetes-related end point (9%, P=0.04) and microvasculardisease (24%, P=0.001), and risk reductions for myocardial infarction(15%, P=0.01) and death from any cause (13%, P=0.007) emergedover time, as more events occurred. In the metformin group,significant risk reductions persisted for any diabetes-relatedend point (21%, P=0.01), myocardial infarction (33%, P=0.005),and death from any cause (27%, P=0.002).
Conclusions Despite an early loss of glycemic differences, acontinued reduction in microvascular risk and emergent riskreductions for myocardial infarction and death from any causewere observed during 10 years of post-trial follow-up. A continuedbenefit after metformin therapy was evident among overweightpatients. (UKPDS 80; Current Controlled Trials number, ISRCTN75451837
