XENical in the Prevention of Diabetes in Obese Subjects (XENDOS) Study

Abstract: OBJECTIVE -It is well established that the risk of developing type 2 diabetes is closely linked to the presence and duration of overweight and obesity. A reduction in the incidence of type 2 diabetes with lifestyle changes has previously been demonstrated. We hypothesized that adding a weight-reducing agent to lifestyle changes may lead to an even greater decrease in body weight, and thus the incidence of type 2 diabetes, in obese patients.RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS -In a 4-year, double-blind, prospective stu… Show more

“…Body weight, fat mass and several major metabolic features of IR were improved in the long term and to the extent that the benefit appeared to be comparable to the change seen on drug therapy. 30 Failure to achieve long-term reduction in LDL cholesterol probably reflects insufficient emphasis on the need to reduce saturated fatty acids, and specific dietary advice should reinforce this aspect. There is no evidence for long-term benefit of HF diets such as the Atkins diet.…”

“…In a 4-year RCT, orlistat plus lifestyle changes produced slightly greater weight loss and resulted in a greater reduction in the incidence of T2DM (hazard ratio : 0.627, 95% CI 0.455-0.863; P=0.0032) in obese patients, compared with lifestyle changes alone. The preventive effect was essentially explained by the difference in subjects with impaired glucose tolerance 66 .…”
