Primary study designInterventional
Study designA double-blinded parallel study, randomised by block design and stratified by centre.
Secondary study designRandomised controlled trial
Study type Participant information sheet
Scientific titleProtection Against Nephropathy in Diabetes with Atorvastatin
Study acronymPANDA
Study objectivesTo compare the effect of treatment with a low and high dose HMG CoA reductase inhibitor on the progression of diabetic nephropathy in patients with type II diabetes whose blood pressure will be controlled using antihypertensive regimens that will include angiotensin II receptor antagonists.
Ethics approval(s)Central Manchester Research Ethics Committee. Date of approval: 28/07/2004 (ref: 04/Q1407/51)
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedType II diabetes with proteinuria
Intervention1 x 10 mg active atorvastatin (oral) and 2 x 40 mg placebo vs 2 x 40 mg active atorvastatin (oral) and 1 x 10 mg placebo for three years.
Intervention typeDrug
PhaseNot Specified
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s)Atorvastatin
Primary outcome measure(s)

1. Difference in the mean level of glomerular filtration rates at 3 years follow-up between patients receiving atorvastatin 10 mg and 80 mg daily
2. Difference in the mean level of albumin excretion rates at 3 years follow-up between patients receiving atorvastatin 10 mg and 80 mg daily

Key secondary outcome measure(s)

1. Change in serum creatinine and GFR between baseline and 3 years follow-up for patients receiving atorvastatin 10 mg and 80 mg daily
2. Difference in the mean level of serum creatinine at 3 years follow-up between patients receiving atorvastatin 10 mg and 80 mg daily
3. Difference in the percentage of patients achieving low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels <2.6 mmol/l at 3 years follow-up between patients receiving atorvastatin 10 mg and 80 mg daily
4. Difference in the percentage of patients who have a cardiovascular event defined as documented non fatal acute myocardial infarction, hospital admission for unstable angina, appearance of new Q waves on electrocardiogram (ECG), coronary heart disease (CHD) death, coronary artery bypass surgery, coronary angioplasty/stenting or lower limb revascularisation, ischaemic stroke shown by abnormal brain scan or permanent neurological deficit, amputation
5. Difference in the percentage of patients who need photocoagulation for diabetic retinopathy within the first 3 years of follow-up between patients receiving atorvastatin 10 mg and 80 mg daily
