Reduction in 10-year risk of major CVD endpoints (CHD death/non-fatal MI) in major statin trials, or substudies of major trials, in diabetic subjects (N = 16,032)
| Study (ref.) | CVD prevention | Statin dose and comparator | Risk reduction | Relative risk reduction | Absolute risk reduction | LDL cholesterol reduction (%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4S-DM (211) | 2° | Simvastatin 20–40 mg vs. placebo | 85.7 to 43.2% | 50% | 42.5% | 186 to 119 mg/dl (36%) |
| ASPEN 2° (216) | 2° | Atorvastatin 10 mg vs. placebo | 39.5 to 24.5% | 34% | 12.7% | 112 to 79 mg/dl (29%) |
| HPS-DM (212) | 2° | Simvastatin 40 mg vs. placebo | 43.8 to 36.3% | 17% | 7.5% | 123 to 84 mg/dl (31%) |
| CARE-DM (213) | 2° | Pravastatin 40 mg vs. placebo | 40.8 to 35.4% | 13% | 5.4% | 136 to 99 mg/dl (27%) |
| TNT-DM (214) | 2° | Atorvastatin 80 mg vs. 10 mg | 26.3 to 21.6% | 18% | 4.7% | 99 to 77 mg/dl (22%) |
| HPS-DM (212) | 1° | Simvastatin 40 mg vs. placebo | 17.5 to 11.5% | 34% | 6.0% | 124 to 86 mg/dl (31%) |
| CARDS (234) | 1° | Atorvastatin 10 mg vs. placebo | 11.5 to 7.5% | 35% | 4.0% | 118 to 71 mg/dl (40%) |
| ASPEN 1° (216) | 1° | Atorvastatin 10 mg vs. placebo | 9.8 to 7.9% | 19% | 1.9% | 114 to 80 mg/dl (30%) |
| ASCOT-DM (215) | 1° | Atorvastatin 10 mg vs. placebo | 11.1 to 10.2% | 8% | 0.9% | 125 to 82 mg/dl (34%) |
Studies were of differing lengths (3.3–5.4 years) and used somewhat different outcomes, but all reported rates of CVD death and non-fatal MI. In this tabulation, results of the statin on 10-year risk of major CVD endpoints (CHD death/non-fatal MI) are listed for comparison between studies. Correlation between 10-year CVD risk of the control group and the absolute risk reduction with statin therapy is highly significant (P = 0.0007).
