Agenda • Definition and pathophysiology of diabetic dyslipidemia • Statin therapy in diabetic patients • Non statin therapy (ezetimibe, PCSK9 inhibotors and highly purified omega 3) in individuals with diabetes mellitus • Conclusions
Diabetic Dyslipidemia • In patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, triglycerides are often elevated, HDL-C is often decreased, and LDL-C may be elevated, borderline, or normal. • LDL particules are small and dense. Thus, the LDL-C concentration may be misleading because there will be more LDL particles for any cholesterol concentration • The prevalence of DD reported in various studies varied between 35 and 56%and is strongly associated with increased cardiovascular risk Atherosclerosis 2015. 239: 483-95
Chylo Pathophysiology of dyslipidemia The core features of the phenotype are underpinned by insulin resistance and result in abnormal metabolism and quantity of TG rich lipoproteins(TRLs) derived either from the intestine (as chylomicrons) or the liver (as very low-density lipoprotein [VLDL]) VLDL Chylo Remnant VLDL Remnant IDL TG Rich LP
Remnant cholesterol = total cholesterol – (HDL cholesterol + LDL cholesterol) • Non HDL= Total cholesterol – HDL cholesterol Remnant cholesterol combined with LDL cholesterol
Statin therapy and blood pressure control decrease CHD risk to a greater extent than targeting glucose lowering Number of CV events prevented by different interventions Per 4 mmHg lower SBP Per 0.9% lower HbA1c Per 1 mmol/l lower LDL-C 0 -5 -10 -15 CV events prevented Sattar.

Efficacy of cholesterol-lowering therapy in diabetic patients in 14 RCT of statins : meta analysis • Aim of study: • Although statin therapy reduces the risk of occlusive vascular events in people with DM • There is uncertainty about the effects on particular outcomes and whether such effects depend on the type of diabetes, lipid profile, or other factors. • Methods: • Data from 18686 individuals with diabetes (1466 type 1 and 17,220 type 2) in the context of a further 71,370 without diabetes in 14 randomised trials of statin therapy. • Estimates effects on clinical outcomes per 1.0 mmol/L reduction in LDL cholesterol Lancet 2008, Jan 12;371(9607):117-25
Results • After 5 years, 42(95% CI 30–55) fewer people with diabetes had major vascular events per 1000 allocated statin therapy
Key message • Statin therapy safely reduces the 5-year incidence of major coronary events, coronary revascularization, and stroke by about a fifth per mmol/L reduction in LDL cholesterol, largely irrespective of initial lipid profile or other baseline characteristics • Conclusion: Statin therapy should be considered for all diabetic individuals who are at sufficiently high risk of vascular events

Residual risk ? • Elevated Triglyceride level • Role of TG rich lipoproteines • Beyond LDL, non HDL may be a better predictor
To determine if non-HDL cholesterol is a more useful predictor of coronary heart disease (CHD) risk than LDL cholesterol and if VLDL cholesterol is an independent predictor of CHD risk • All subjects aged >30 years and free of CHD at baseline, followed for incident CHD (618 men, 372 women) Am J Cardiol 2006;98:1363–1368
Within non–HDL-C levels, no association was found between LDL-C and the risk for CHD In contrast, a strong positive and graded association between non–HDL-C and risk for CHD occurred within every level of LDL Non–HDL-C Is Superior to LDL-C in Predicting CHD Risk Relative CHD Risk ≥190 160-189 <160 <130 130-159 ≥160 Non–HDL-C, mg/dL LDL-C, mg/dL .
When the analysis was repeated within triglyceride levels (<200 vs>200 mg/dl), the risk pattern did not change significantly
Key message • The results from this study support the conclusions that VLDL cholesterol is an independent predictor of CHD risk and that non-HDL cholesterol overall appears to be a better predictor of CHD risk than LDL cholesterol. • These conclusions appear to be valid for the entire population and when TG levels are either ≥200 or< 200 mg/dl
Long-term and short-term relationships of triglycerides to risk after ACS were examined in the dal-OUTCOMES trial and atorvastatin arm of the MIRACL (Myocardial Ischemia Reduction with Acute Cholesterol Lowering) trial, respectively J Am CollCardiol 2015;65:2267–75
Key message • Among patients with ACS treated effectively with statins, fasting triglycerides predict long-term and short-term cardiovascular risk. • Triglyceride-rich lipoproteins may be an important additional target for therapy.
Sample size: 9795 Type 2 diabetic participants aged 50–75 years • Primary outcome: coronary events (coronary heart disease death or non-fatal myocardial infarction) • Prespecified subgroup analyses : total cardiovascular events (the composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, and coronary and carotid revascularisation) • Length of F/U: 5 years • Lipids to qualify for the study were: cholesterol 116–251 mg/dl, and chol/HDL>4.0 or TG 89–444 mg/dl. Lancet 2005; 366: 1849–61
FIELD: Primary and Secondary End Points 11% Reduction P = .035 Placebo Fenofibrate 21% Reduction P = .003 11% Reduction P = .16 24% Reduction P = .01 Event Rate (%) 19% Increase P = .22 Total CVD Events† (Secondary End Point) CHD Events* (Primary End Point) Nonfatal MI CHD Death Coronary Revascularization *Nonfatal MI and CHD death. †CHD events, stroke, CVD death, revascularizations. Keech A, et al. Lancet. 2005;366:1849-1861.
Key messages • Fenofibrate did not significantly reduce the risk of the primary outcome of coronary events. It did reduce total cardiovascular events, mainly due to fewer non-fatal myocardial infarctions and revascularizations. • The higher rate of starting statin therapy in patients allocated placebo might have masked a moderately larger treatment benefit.
Randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trial conducted in 77 clinical sites in the U.S. and Canada • Sample size: 5518 patients with type 2 diabetes • Mean follow-up : 4.7 years. N Engl J Med 2010; 362: 1563–74.

Key message • ACCORD Lipid trial does not support use of the combination of fenofibrate and simvastatin, compared to simvastatin alone, to reduce CVD events in the majority of patients with T2DM who are at high risk for CVD
Patients: age ≥50 years, ACS (Recent 10 days), LDL-C between 50mg/dL and 100 - 125 mg/dL 18,144 9,067 9,077 Simvastatin40 mg + Placebo Simvastatin40 mg + Ezetimibe 10 mg CV mortality Major CV event (death from CAD, MI, stroke or revascularization more than 30 days after randomization) Nonfatal stroke
Result Primary Outcome CV mortality, major CV event, or nonfatal stroke 34.7% vs. 32.7% (HR 0.94; 95% CI 0.89-0.99; P=0.016; NNT 50) Secondary Outcomes All-cause mortality, major CV event , or nonfatal stroke 40.3% vs. 38.7% (HR 0.95; 95% CI 0.90-1.00; P=0.03) CV mortality, nonfatal MI, urgent coronary revascularization ≥30 days 18.9% vs. 17.5% (HR 0.91; 95% CI 0.85-0.98; P=0.02) CV mortality, nonfatal MI, unstable angina hospitalization, any revascularization ≥30 days, nonfatal stroke 36.2% vs. 34.5% (HR 0.95; 95% CI 0.90-1.00; P=0.04)
Key message • IMPROVE-IT is the first trial to show that adding a non-statin lipid-modifying agent in concert with a statin improves CV outcomes in addition to enhancing lipid lowering effects
