About this study

Official title: Effects of Dapagliflozin on Biomarkers, Symptoms and Functional Status in Patients With PRESERVED Ejection Fraction Heart Failure

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of dapagliflozin, as compared with placebo, on heart failure, disease specific biomarkers, symptoms, health status and quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure with preserved systolic function.

Read the detailed description

A 12-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the effects of once-daily dapagliflozin 10 mg on heart failure disease-specific biomarkers (NTproBNP and BNP), symptoms, health status, and quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure with preserved systolic function. An imaging substudy will also be conducted to explore the effects of dapagliflozin vs. placebo on various echocardiographic parameters.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Effect of Dapagliflozin, as Compared With Placebo, on Heart Failure Related Health Status Using the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire Clinical Summary Summary Score (KCCQ-CS)

    Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire clinical summary score (KCCQ-CS) at Week 12.

    The KCCQ is a disease-specific health status instrument composed of 23 items that quantifies the domains of physical limitations, symptoms, self-efficacy, social limitation and quality of life from heart failure. Scores range from 0-100, in which higher scores reflect better health status. For the KCCQ-CS, a small but clinically meaningful change is considered to be ≥ 5 points.

    Values have been adjusted for the corresponding baseline value, history of type 2 diabetes, sex, atrial fibrillation, baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate and left ventricular ejection fraction.

    Measured: Baseline to Week 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Dapagliflozin 10Mg Oral Tablet in people with Chronic Heart Failure With Preserved Systolic Function, run by Saint Luke's Health System at 26 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 30 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Oct 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 26 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 19 Oct 2022). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Effect of Dapagliflozin, as Compared With Placebo, on Heart Failure Related Health Status Using the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire Clinical Summary Summary Score (KCCQ-CS) (time frame: Baseline to Week 12). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03030235, which also lists 6 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Oct 2022.
