Summary of Key Points
• Diabetics are at increased risk for all types of fatal
and non-fatal cardiovascular (CV) events
• The protection afforded nondiabetic women is lost
in diabetic women
• There is an increasingly negative impact on CV
morbidity and mortality as the number of risk
factors increases.
• The risk of myocardial infarction (MI) in a diabetic
without prior MI is as great as the risk of MI in a
nondiabetic with a previous MI
• Proteinuria is a potent predictor of cardiovascular
risk in diabetics, even more than in nondiabetics
Benefit of Diuretics in Diabetes:
Important Findings of 2 Major Clinical Trials
• SHEP (1991)
– Low doses of the diuretic chlorthalidone compared to
placebo reduced the risk of stroke in elderly patients
with isolated systolic hypertension
• ALLHAT (2000)
– In high-risk patients, the diuretic chlorthalidone compared to
the alpha-blocker doxazosin yielded equal risk of coronary
heart disease death and non-fatal myocardial infarction, but
significantly reduced the risk of combined cardiovascular
disease events, in particular congestive heart failure
SHEP
• The Systolic Hypertension in the Elderly Program (SHEP) was a
double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study enrolling
4,736 patients, 60 years old, with isolated systolic
hypertension (systolic BP160 mmHg; diastolic BP<90 mmHg),
for an average follow-up of 4.5 years
• Participants were randomized to low dose chlorthalidone, with
a step up to atenolol or reserpine, if needed
• Main outcome measures were fatal and non-fatal stroke
• Secondary endpoints were cardiovascular and coronary
morbidity and mortality, all-cause mortality, and quality of life
measures
• 583 patients had type 2 diabetes at baseline

Benefit of Diuretics in Diabetes:
Important Findings of 2 Major Clinical Trials
• SHEP (1991)
– Low-doses of the diuretic chlorthalidone compared to
placebo reduced the risk of stroke in elderly patients
with isolated systolic hypertension
• ALLHAT (2000)
– In high-risk patients, the diuretic chlorthalidone
compared to the -andrenergic blocker doxazosin
yielded equal risk of coronary heart disease death and
non-fatal myocardial infarction, but significantly
reduced the risk of combined cardiovascular disease
events, in particular congestive heart failure
ALLHAT Blood Pressure Component
Doxazosin Arm
• The Antihypertensive and Lipid-Lowering Treatment to Prevent
Heart Attack Trial (ALLHAT) is a double-blind, active-controlled
trial that enrolled 42,448 patients, >55 years old, with
hypertension (SBP >140 mmHg and/or DBP >90 mmHg) and at
least 1 other coronary heart disease (CHD) risk factor
• ALLHAT was designed to determine the differences in the
incidence of the primary outcome between treatment with
diuretic (chlorthalidone) and 3 other agents, doxazosin,
lisinopril, and amlodipine
• The primary outcome was a composite of fatal CHD and nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI)
• Secondary outcomes were all-cause mortality, stroke, and all
major cardiovascular disease (CVD) events
• The doxazosin treatment arm of the blood pressure component
was stopped in January 2000, resulting in a median follow-up of
3.3 years for doxazosin compared to chlorthalidone

Benefit of Calcium Channel Blockers in Diabetes:
Important Findings of 2 Major Clinical Trials
• HOT (1998)
– Intensive diastolic blood pressure lowering (based on
comparison of diastolic blood pressures of 80 vs 85 vs
90 mmHg) with the calcium channel blocker felodipine
lead to fewer cardiovascular events and less
cardiovascular mortality
• Syst-Eur (1997)
– Treatment with the calcium channel blocker nitrendipine
significantly decreased rate of cardiovascular complications
in diabetics
– In older diabetic patients with isolated systolic hypertension,
dihydropyridine-based calcium channel blocker treatment
with nitrendipine was beneficial (1999)
HOT Study
• The Hypertension Optimal Treatment (HOT) Study enrolled
18,790 patients to assess the optimal target diastolic blood
pressure for hypertensive patients over a period of 4.9 years
(average follow-up 3.8 years)
• Patients were randomized to felodipine + placebo or felodipine +
aspirin
• Principal aims of this study were to assess: the association
between major cardiovascular events (non-fatal myocardial
infarction, non-fatal stroke, and cardiovascular death) and the
target BPs of 90 mmHg, 85 mmHg, and 80 mmHg; the
association between major cardiovascular events and diastolic BP
achieved during treatment; and the impact of the addition of
acetylsalicylic acid to antihypertensive treatment on the rate of
major cardiovascular events
• 1,501 patients had diabetes at baseline

UKPDS (1998)
– Tight blood pressure control with captopril or atenolol compared to
less tight control lowered the rates of stroke, any diabetes endpoint,
microvascular outcomes, and death
– Intensive compared to conventional glucose control lowered risk of
any diabetes-related endpoint, microvascular endpoints and

HOPE & MICRO-HOPE Substudy (2000)
– Ramipril compared to placebo added to usual care reduces the occurrence of
death, myocardial infarction, and stroke in both diabetics and nondiabetics
– Ramipril decreased progression of proteinuria in diabetics
ABCD (1998)
– Enalapril compared to nisoldipine provided comparable blood pressure control
and better protection against myocardial infarction

UKPDS (1998)
– Tight blood pressure control with captopril or atenolol compared to less tight
control lowered the rate of stroke, any diabetes endpoint, microvascular
outcomes, and death
– Intensive compared to conventional glucose control lowered risk of any
diabetes-related endpoint, microvascular endpoints and myocardial infarction
HOPE & MICRO-HOPE Substudy (2000)
– Ramipril compared to placebo added to usual care reduces the
occurrence of death, myocardial infarction, and stroke in both
diabetics and nondiabetics
– Ramipril decreased progression of proteinuria in diabetics
ABCD (1998)
– Enalapril compared to nisoldipine provided comparable blood pressure control
and better protection against myocardial infarction
ABCD, CAPPP, FACET and UKPDS meta-analysis (2000)
– ACEIs compared to other agents significantly reduced the frequency of acute
myocardial infarction, cardiovascular events, and all-cause mortality
HOPE Study
• The Heart Outcomes Prevention Evaluation (HOPE) Study was
a multicenter, randomized trial enrolling 9,297 patients 55
years old with a history of cardiovascular disease, or diabetes
plus at least one other cardiovascular risk factor
• Patients were treated with ramipril or placebo and vitamin E or
placebo for an average of 4.5 years
• Combined primary endpoint was the development of myocardial
infarction, stroke, or cardiovascular death
• Secondary endpoints were total mortality, admission to hospital
for congestive heart failure or unstable angina, complications
related to diabetes, and cardiovascular revascularization

ABCD Trial
• The Appropriate Blood Pressure Control in Diabetes (ABCD)
Trial enrolled 950 non-insulin-dependent diabetics with
minimally reduced renal function to compare the effect of
moderate BP control (target diastolic BP of 80 to 89 mmHg) to
intensive BP control (target diastolic BP of 75 mmHg) over 5.3
years of follow-up
• Nisoldipine and enalapril also were compared as first-line
antihypertensive agents in the prevention and progression of
complications of diabetes
• Primary outcome measure was glomerular filtration rate as
assessed by 24hr creatinine clearance
• Secondary outcome measures were urinary albumin excretion,
left ventricular hypertrophy, retinopathy, and neuropathy
• In hypertensive subgroup (n=470), the endpoint of the
incidence of myocardial infarction was analyzed

RENAAL
Summary of Important Findings
In patients with type 2 diabetes and nephropathy:
• Losartan, in combination with other antihypertensive therapy
(non-ACE or ARB), delayed the onset of the primary composite
endpoint* (P=0.02) and delayed progression to end stage renal
disease (P=0.002)
• Losartan reduced proteinuria (P<0.001) and the rate of decline in
renal function (P=0.01)
• Losartan reduced the incidence of first hospitalization for heart
failure (P=0.005)
• These benefits were above and beyond those attributable to blood
pressure reduction alone
*Composite of a doubling of serum creatinine, end stage renal disease, or death

IRMA II Irbesartan vs Placebo
Secondary Endpoints
• During the first 3 months, the decline in creatinine
clearance (mL/min/m2 body surface area per month)
was greater than the decline between 3 and 24
months*
 0.9 vs 0.1 for the placebo group
 1.0 vs 0.2 for the 150 mg group
 1.9 vs 0.2 for the 300 mg group
• Irbesartan reduced the level of urine albumin
excretion…
24% in the 150 mg group (P=NS)†
38% in the 300 mg group (P<0.001)†
*Neither the initial nor long-term decline differed significantly among the 3 groups
† Compared to placebo

IRMA II
Summary of Important Findings
• Irbesartan significantly reduces the rate of
progression from microalbuminuria to diabetic
nephropathy
• Renoprotection from irbesartan in patients with type
2 diabetes and microalbuminuria is independent of
its blood pressure lowering effect
• Antihypertensive treatment has a renoprotective
effect in hypertensive patients with type 2 diabetes
and microalbuminuria

Benefit of Angiotensin Receptor Blockers in Diabetes:
Important Findings of 3 Major Clinical Trials
• RENAAL (2001)
– The angiotensin receptor blocker losartan compared to
placebo reduced the risk of diabetic nephropathy developing
to renal failure
• IRMA II (2001)
– Higher doses of the angiotensin receptor blocker irbesartan
reduced the risk of progression of renal insufficiency
• IDNT (2001)
– The angiotensin receptor blocker irbesartan compared
to the calcium channel blocker amlodipine provided
better renal protection in hypertensive type 2
diabetics, reducing the chance of diabetic
nephropathy developing to renal failure
The Irbesartan in Diabetic
Nephropathy Trial
IDNT overview
• Randomized, double-blind trial to determine if irbesartan, an
angiotensin II receptor blocker, and amlodipine, a calcium
channel blocker, slow the progression of nephropathy in type 2
diabetics
Population
• 1,715 patients (30 to 70 years old)
– Diagnosed type 2 diabetes
– Hypertension (systolic BP>135, diastolic BP >85 mmHg or
treatment w/ antihypertensive agents)
– Nephropathy (urinary protein excretion of at least 900
mg/24hrs and serum creatinine between 1.0–3.0 mg/dL in
women, and 1.2–3.0 mg/dL in men)

IDNT
Summary of Important Findings
In hypertensive, type 2 diabetics with nephropathy:
• Irbesartan reduced the incidence of the primary composite
endpoint of a doubling of serum creatinine, end stage
renal disease, or death by 23% vs amlodipine (P=0.006)
and 20% vs placebo (P=0.02)
• Proteinuria was reduced 33% in the irbesartan group
compared to 10% with placebo
• These benefits were above and beyond those attributable
to blood pressure reduction alone
