  1. Cholesterol and Lipids TIPS Wokefield Park 15/5/2013

  2. Just a few questions! • What is the NDA target for total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol? • What are the QOF targets for cholesterol? • What is the ideal time to take a statin and why? • Name the most serious side effect of statins. • What blood test would you order if you suspected it? • Name another side effect of statins. • All statins increase HDL cholesterol – true or false? • What is the most typical lipid profile for type 2 diabetes? • What is the most typical lipid profile for type 1 diabetes?

  3. R77 Statins & Ezetimibe For a person who is 40 yrs+ • Simvastatin (to 40 mg) unless CVS risk from non-hyperglycaemia-related factors is low (see R72)

  4. R72 Consider a person to be at high CVS risk unless…… • Not overweight • Normotensive • No microalbuminuria • Non-smoker • No high risk lipid profile • No h/o CVS disease • No FH of CVS disease

  5. If low CVS risk………… • Assess CVS risk using UKPDS risk engine • Start simvastatin if CVS risk > 20% over 10 yrs

  6. Once on a statin……….. • Repeat lipid profile in 1-3 months then annually • If total cholesterol>4.0 or LDL cholesterol >2.0 mmol/L titrate simvastatin to 80 mg daily

  7. Consider intensifying if……. • Existing/newly diagnosed CVS disease • Choose different statin/ezetimibe

  8. If h/o raised triglycerides……. • Consider secondary causes • Full lipid profile • Prescribe fenofibrate if Tg remain > 4.5 mmol/L • If Tg remain > 2.3 mmol/L consider adding fenofibrate to statin

  10. Statins do not alter the risk of LowHDL Heart Protection Study (Diabetes subgroup) % CHD Events placebo HDL Cholesterol (mmol/L) simvastatin 40mg Adapted from Heart Protection Study Collaborative Group. Lancet 2003; 361: 2005-2016.

  11. If you needed to treat these lipids what would you prescribe? • Total cholesterol 5.35 mmol/L • HDL cholesterol 1.4 mmol/L • Triglycerides 1.68 mmol/L

  15. ASCOT • Age 40-79 • Untreated BP 160/100 or more • Treated BP 140/90 or more • Total cholesterol < 6.5 mmol/L • 3+ of LVH,ischaemic ECG,type 2 diabetes,PVD,previous stroke or TIA,male, age > 55,smoker,microalbuminuria,family history of premature CHD Lancet 2003;361:1149-1158

  23. Numbers needed to treatto prevent one non-fatal MI or CHD death in 5 years All Patients Diabetics • CARE 33 29 • LIPID 28 29 • HPS 32 31 • VA-HIT 23 12

  24. Question You are a bigdeal trialist designing a study to test the efficacy of a fibrate in the prevention of CHD in type 2 diabetes. What ideally would you like the average baseline lipid profile to be?

  25. FIELD Study • 9795 participants • Type 2 diabetes • Age 50- 75 yrs • No prior statin/fibrate therapy • 2131 previous CVS disease • 7664 no known previous CVS disease

  26. FIELD - Recruitment Lipids • Total cholesterol 3-6.5 mmol/L + • Either TC:HDL cholesterol > 4 • Or triglycerides 1.0-5.0 mmol/L

  29. Kaplan-Meier Analyses of the Primary Outcome, Expanded Macrovascular Outcome, and Death The ACCORD Study Group. N Engl J Med 2010;362:1563-1574

  30. Conclusion • The combination of fenofibrate and simvastatin did not reduce the rate of fatal cardiovascular events, nonfatal myocardial infarction, or nonfatal stroke, as compared with simvastatin alone • These results do not support the routine use of combination therapy with fenofibrate and simvastatin to reduce cardiovascular risk in the majority of high-risk patients with type 2 diabetes

  31. Baseline Characteristics of the Patients The ACCORD Study Group. N Engl J Med 2010;362:1563-1574

  32. Conclusions • Statins are safe, benefit many diabetics and almost all diabetics should be on them • Treat total cholesterol & LDL cholesterol to target • There is still a place for fibrates in combination and first line for those with HDL<1 and/or Tg>2.3
