Abstract:
Background: GRADE enrolled 5,047 adults & gt; 30 years, T2DM & lt; 10 years duration, on metformin, requiring a second medication, A1C 6.8-8.5%. Age-related differences in disease phenotype may affect responses to the randomized treatments being evaluated. Objective: To evaluate whether baseline characteristics differed by age. Methods: Baseline characteristics were compared across age groups, using mean ± SD (ANOVA) or % (Pearson’s chi-square). We report nominal, unadjusted p-values. Results: With the defined inclusion criteria, we enrolled a cohort with overall DM duration 4.2 ± 2.8 years, and A1c 7.5 ± 0.5%. Within this cohort, distinct clinical phenotypes by age were present. Across the age groups, older individuals had more CVD, and were on more medications for DM-related comorbidities. Younger individuals were more diverse, had higher weight, FPG, and insulin, more pronounced diabetic dyslipidemia, and were taking fewer medications for comorbidities (Table). Conclusion: Within the GRADE cohort defined by inclusion criteria representing a specific stage of glycemia, the clinical phenotype of T2DM differed by age, with older participants having greater prevalent comorbidity and younger participants having more prominent hyperglycemia and higher weight. An understanding of the distinct phenotypes by age may identify priorities and gaps in clinical care. Disclosure V.R.
