HOPE for Patients with Diabetes
MICRO-HOPE
Substudy of HOPE focusing on
microalbuminuria, cardiovascular, and renal
outcomes in patients 55 or older with diabetes
Study objective: To assess whether the addition
of ramipril to the current medical regimens of
high-risk patients with diabetes can reduce the
risk of CV events
97% of the patients in MICRO-HOPE had T2DM

Ace inhibitors have the broadest
impact of any drug in CV medicine:
Reduce risk of death, MI, stroke, diabetes
and renal impairment.
Benefit patients with HF or LV dysfunction,
post MI, PAD, diabetes, stroke or TIA &
AAA and renal dysfunction.
ACE-Inhibitors-Standard of Care
“WHOOPS”
Prevention of Events With AngiotensinConverting-enzyme Inhibition trial (PEACE).
Lower risk CAD patients - most post
revascularization on good risk reduction
treatment (antiplatelet therapy, beta-blockers
and statins) on trandopril 4mg vs placebo.
Resulted in no benefit.
N Engl J Med 2004; 351; 2058-2068.
Comparison to HOPE & EUROPA
The patients enrolled in PEACE were at lower
cardiovascular risk (annualized all-cause mortality in the
PEACE population was only 1.6%).
Normal mean serum creatinine and cholesterol levels
and their average blood pressure was the level achieved
after use of an ACE inhibitor in HOPE and EUROPA.
More patients in PEACE than in HOPE or EUROPA had
undergone coronary revascularization (73% vs 40% and
54%, respectively).
More had received lipid-lowering therapy (70% vs 29%
and 56%). and as a consequence, their cardiovascular
event rate was lower than in HOPE and EUROPA.
N Engl J Med 2004; 351; 2058-2068.
Conclusions re PEACE
Results of PEACE were entirely consistent
with HOPE and EUROPA.
Underpowered (more patients and longer
follow-up needed because better
treatment resulted in lower risk).
Dosages of drugs are not comparable.
Absolute benefit obtained depends on
baseline risk.
Medications that block the
RAAS
Angiotensinogen
Renin
Angiotensin
Converting
Enzyme (ACE)
Renin blockers(Beta blockers)
Angiotensin I
ACE-inhibitors
Angiotensin II
ARBs
AT I receptor
Aldosterone

blockers
A II BLOCKADE
It is no coincidence that:
beta-blockers (renin inhibitors)
angiotensin converting enzyme--(ACE)
inhibitors
angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs)
Aldosterone blockade
—all A II antagonists
↓ CV and CRD risk and decrease mortality
….improve outcomes!
Conclusion
Angiotensin II Blockade is good.
ACEI apparently are very effective
with improved outcomes.
Always room for improvement!
The Question?
Is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB)
better then an ACEI because theoretically
it would more completely block the effects
of AII
Blocking RAAS
Superior for risk reduction and less diabeto-genic than
“older” anti-hypertensive agents
HOPE, EUROPA, ALLHAT and ANBP2 trials have all
shown decreases incidence of T2DM with ACE inhibition.
Emerging evidence from the LIFE and CHARM trials have
shown respective 25% and 28% reductions in the
incidence of DM with ARBs.

ACE inhibitors and ARBs
Improve insulin sensitivity
Usage in various studies have shown
decreased development of T2DM
Unknown mechanism
? XX Induction of vascular insulin
resistance on vsmc by A II…increased
vasoconstriction, decreased NO, ED,
increased inflammation, insulin resistance
and increased prothrombotic state.
Arguments Against ACEI
Poor tolerability
- Cough 6% to 7%
- Angioedema (1:1000)
- Angioedema requiring hospitalization
(1: 10,000)
Arguments for ARBs
Beneficial in HF (CHARM & ELITE II).
Beneficial post MI and better tolerated
(VALIANT & OPTIMAAL).
Shown to decrease progression of
proteinuria and renal disease**.
Associated with decreased incidence of
DM (LIFE & CHARM).
Not associated with cough or angioedema.

Three recent studies show that ARBs can slow the
progression of renal disease among patients with T2DM
(with HBP and microalbuminuria).

ARB vs ACE-I in T2DM + nephropathy
DETAIL study: comparison study with
telmisartan vs enalapril.
Results: telmisartan is not inferior to
enalapril in providing renoprotection in
subjects with T2DM and mild nephropathy.

Evaluation of Therapeutic OptionsCriteria for Choice of Agent:
Should have proven CV morbidity and mortality
benefits.
Should reduce BP over 24 hours (i.e. be longacting) in order to reduce end-organ damage
and the incidence of early morning
cardiovascular events.
Should have direct protective properties on end
organs, such as the heart, brain and kidney.
Should have a favorable interaction profile and
of course needs be well tolerated.
ACE INHIB VS ARB for HBP
…Compelling Indications:
Beneficial Effects of ACEI @ all
stages (HBP→CAD→HF)
Immediate
Intermediate
Late effects
Hemodynamic: ↓ BP
Preservation of bradykinin
↑ nitric acid
↓ superoxide production
Fibrinolytic stabilization
↓ PAI-1
↑ PA
↓ platelet activator
↓ cell migration
↓ cell proliferation
Plaque stabilization
Who should receive ACEinhibitors?
HF (LVEF < 40%)
CVD (CAD, PAD, carotid or cerebral vasc
dx, AAA)
T2DM
Metabolic Syndrome (pre-diabetics)
CRD
HBP
Conclusions
No Evidence of superiority of ARBs Over ACEI.
Should not replace comfort above efficacy and
safety (ie ACEI the only agent with ↓ mortality
benefit.
Cost should always be part of the equation.
ACEI are still first choice but use ARBs in all
situations where ACEI cannot be tolerated…
…and maybe as an add-on or in combo in patients
T2DM/microalbuminuria.
Optimal Treatment
T2DM/MetS/HBP/microalbuminuria
ACEI-First choice; ARBs-Second
- Poss consider both.
