Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Observational analyses of data from population registeries have suggested that metformin may be associated with a decreased prevalence of malignancy. The ADOPT and RECORD studies both contain groups of subjects randomly allocated to metformin and rosiglitazone. This meta-analysis combines malignancy serious adverse events from ADOPT and RECORD in order to compare their incidence on metformin with that on rosiglitazone.

- Subjects from ADOPT that are included in this meta-analysis were randomly allocated to receive metformin or rosiglitazone. Subjects from RECORD that are included in this meta-analysis were taking one of three sulfonylureas (glibenclamide, gliclazide or glimepiride) and were randomly allocated metformin or rosiglitazone to use as add-on treament to background sulfonylurea.

Subjects from ADOPT that are included in this meta-analysis (those in the metformin or rosiglitazone groups) had the dose of their study medication increased to a maximum of 2g (metformin) or 8mg (rosiglitazone) if their fasting plasma glucose was greater than 140mg/dl. Subjects from RECORD that are included in this meta-analsyis entered the RECORD study taking one of three sulfonylureas (glibenclamide, gliclazide or glimepiride). They were randomly allocated to metformin or rosiglitazone in a 1:1 ration to use as add-on treatment to the background of sulfonylurea. These subjects had the dose of their study medication increased to a maximum of 2.55g (metformin) or 8mg (rosiglitazone) if their HbA1c was greater than 7.0%.
