1 A factorial randomized trial of blood pressure lowering and intensive glucose control in 11,140 patients with type 2 diabetes

2 Hypotheses: Among individuals with type 2 diabetes, the risks of major microvascular and macrovascular events will be reduced by: I. glucose control with a sulfonylurea (gliclazide-mr) based regimen targeting a hemoglobin A 1c of 6.5% of less II. Routine BP lowering with a fixed combination of an ACE inhibitor (perindopril) and a diuretic (indapamide)

3 Inclusion criteria Type 2 diabetes mellitus Age 55 years or older Additional risk of vascular event Age 65 years History of major macrovascular disease History of major microvascular disease First diagnosis of diabetes >10 years prior to entry Other major risk factor Any level of blood pressure Any level of glucose control but no definite indication for long-term insulin

4 Participant allocation Registration N = 12,877 Randomization N = 11,140 6 week run-in period with active fixed combination BP lowering glucose control glucose control glucose control glucose control and and and and Routine BP lowering Placebo Routine BP lowering Placebo (N = 2,783) (N = 2,788) (N = 2,786) (N = 2,783)

5 Primary study outcomes Macrovascular Non-fatal stroke, non-fatal myocardial infarction or death from any cardiovascular cause (including sudden death) Microvascular New of worsening nephropathy or diabetic eye disease Pre-specified joint and separate analyses of macrovascular and microvascular outcomes

10 Main results of the glucose control comparison

11 Randomized glucose lowering strategies control arm Gliclazide MR (sulfonylurea) in all participants Unrestricted additional therapy to achieve target HbA 1c 6.5% control arm Sulfonylurea other than Gliclazide MR Unrestricted additional therapy according to standard local guidelines All other treatment At discretion of treating physician

12 glucose control strategy More frequent visits Emphasis on lifestyle management Drug titration at physician s discretion based on HbA 1c and FBG levels: Maximize gliclazide MR dose Add other oral agents Add long-acting insulin Use multiple insulin injection therapy
