Abstract

Aims: To evaluate the long-term effects of behavioral treatments on glycemic and psychological outcomes for patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) and type 2 diabetes (T2D).

Methods: Program ACTIVE II was a multicenter randomized controlled comparative effectiveness trial of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), exercise (EXER), combination treatment (CBT + EXER) and usual care (UC) for adults with MDD and T2D.

Results: Primary outcomes: change in A1c and depressive symptoms at 6- (N = 87) and 12-months (N = 75) from baseline. In those with a baseline A1c ≥7.0 %, CBT + EXER showed lasting A1c benefit at 6- (-1.2 %; SE: 0.6; p = 0.032) and 12-months (-1.4 %; SE: 0.6; p = 0.025) compared to UC. All groups had clinically significant improvements in depressive symptoms. At 6 months, CBT + EXER had significant improvements in diabetes-related distress regimen burden (p = 0.005); and social support (CIRS, p = 0.043) compared to UC.

Conclusions: The Program ACTIVE II CBT + EXER intervention demonstrated a sustained improvement in A1c for a subgroup of study participants with a baseline A1c ≥7.0 %. However, this finding should be considered preliminary because of small sample size. All 3 behavioral intervention groups demonstrated improvements in psychosocial outcomes one-year post-intervention. These findings point to the enduring benefits of community-based interventions to extend the availability of depression treatment for T2D patients.
