Brief Summary: The Look AHEAD study is a multi-center randomized clinical trial to examine the long-term effects of a lifestyle intervention designed to achieve and maintain weight loss The study will investigate the effects of the intervention on heart attacks stroke and cardiovascular-related death in individuals with type 2 diabetes who are also overweight or obese
Detailed Description: Look AHEAD is examining in overweight volunteers with type 2 diabetes the long-term effects of an intensive lifestyle intervention program designed to achieve and maintain weight loss by decreased caloric intake and increased physical activity This program will be compared to a control condition involving a program of diabetes support and education

The primary hypothesis is that the incidence rate of the first post-randomization occurrence of a composite outcome which includes

cardiovascular death including fatal myocardial infarction and stroke non-fatal myocardial infarction hospitalized angina and non-fatal stroke

over a planned follow-up period of up to 135 years will be reduced among participants assigned to the Lifestyle Intervention compared to those assigned to the control condition Diabetes Support and Education

Look AHEAD will also test for reductions in the incidence of three secondary composite outcomes and examine the effect of the intervention on cardiovascular disease risk factors diabetes control and complications general health and quality of life and psychological outcomes The cost and cost-effectiveness of the Lifestyle Intervention relative to Diabetes Support and Education will be assessed

The Look AHEAD intensive lifestyle intervention ended September 2012 Participants continue to be followed to determine the long-term effects of the intervention on health outcomes
