DCCT-EDIC Clinical Trial and Follow-up of Persons with Type 1 Diabetes

ABSTRACT:

The Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT, 1982-93) and the Epidemiology of Diabetes Interventions and Complications follow-up study (EDIC, 1994-2016) have been ongoing for more than twenty years. After a mean follow-up of approximately 16 years, the DCCT-EDIC cohort of 1,441 Type 1 diabetics had remained remarkably complete with more than 90% of the original cohort being actively followed. Taken together, the DCCT clinical trial and subsequent EDIC longitudinal follow-up provide a uniquely rich source of information on the impact of intensive therapy on glycemia and the its long-term complications for persons with Type 1 diabetes.

The DCCT was a multicenter, randomized clinical trial (1, 2) designed to compare intensive with conventional diabetes therapy with regard to their effects on the development and progression of the early complications of Type 1 diabetes. The DCCT trial found that "intensive therapy effectively delays the onset and slows the progression of diabetic retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy" in patients with Type 1 diabetes (1). The goal of the EDIC follow-up was to examine the longer term effects of the original DCCT interventions, especially as they apply to late-occurring complications, such as cardiovascular disease and more advanced stages of retinal and renal disease (3). The EDIC study has been remarkably fruitful in discovering the long term "imprinting" effects (metabolic memory) of the previous intensive therapy, and in delineating the interactions among risk factors with regard to microvascular complications (4-6). In addition, EDIC established, for the first time, the role of intensive therapy and chronic glycemia on atherosclerosis (7-9).

Project description:The Action to Control Cardiovascular Risk in Diabetes (ACCORD) clinical trial was a randomized, multicenter, double 2 x 2 factorial design study involving 10,251 middle-aged and older participants with type-2 diabetes who are at high risk for CVD events because of existing CVD or additional risk factors. The purpose of ACCORD was to determine if intensive glycemic control, intensive lipid management and intensive blood pressure control could prevent major cardiovascular events (myocardial infarction, stroke or cardiovascular death) in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Secondary hypotheses included treatment differences in other cardiovascular outcomes, total mortality, microvascular outcomes, health-related quality of life and cost-effectiveness. The ACCORD trial failed to show a beneficial effect of intensive blood pressure or lipid therapy on the primary outcome, and intensive glycemia management actually increased mortality. The hypothesis underlying this ancillary study is that the failure of ACCORD to achieve its goal of reducing cardiovascular risk in diabetic patients through intensive management of hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, and hypertension may be the result of variation in drug response due to genetic variation between individual participants. Benefits of intensive therapy may accrue to subsets of subjects with specific genetic variants predisposing to efficacious responses to particular therapeutic regimens, and harms may accrue to those with other variants predisposing to poor efficacy or adverse events. Identifying these variants could lead to a precision medicine approach to treating diabetes where each patient's genetic profile could identify the most efficacious treatment regimen with the lowest likelihood of adverse events. To test this hypothesis, a genome-wide genetic analysis was undertaken, incorporating both common variants distributed across the genome and rare variants targeted to exonic regions. Associations of genetic variants with short term responses to individual medicines as well as long term outcomes were investigated. The dataset is composed of genetic data from the ~6100 participants who agreed to participate in the ACCORD optional genetic studies and who allowed broad investigator access to their samples and the data derived from those samples, and from whom a DNA sample of sufficient quality was obtained. While a total of 8514 participants consented to the optional genetics studies, not all consented to broad investigator access, and those who did not are not included in this dataset, although they were also genotyped. Access to these additional genotypes can only be obtained by direct collaboration with the investigators of this study. Phenotype data used in the association analyses are derived from the ACCORD public release clinical data set, which has been made available through <a href="https://biolincc.nhlbi.nih.gov/studies/accord/">BioLINCC</a>.
