About this study

Official title: A Study to Assess the Renoprotective Effects of the SGLT2 Inhibitor Dapagliflozin in Non-Diabetic Patients With Proteinuria: a Randomized Double Blind 6-Weeks Cross-Over Trial

This study tests the hypothesis that dapagliflozin lowers proteinuria in patients with non-diabetic chronic kidney disease.

Read the detailed description

Despite optimal treatment with renin-angiotensin-aldosterone-system (RAAS) inhibitors, many patients with non-diabetic kidney disease show progressive kidney function loss, which is associated with high residual proteinuria. Novel treatment strategies are therefore required to further decrease proteinuria and to slow kidney function decline.

Dapagliflozin is a sodium-glucose transport (SGLT2) inhibitor and inhibits the reabsorption of glucose and sodium in the proximal tubule. The increased natriuresis following dapagliflozin administration normalizes tubuloglomerular feedback resulting in a reduction in intra-glomerular hypertension, which is in turn manifested by acute reversible reductions in glomerular filtration rate and albuminuria. Since many etiologies of non-diabetic nephropathy are characterized by intraglomerular hypertension, we hypothesize that dapagliflozin acutely decreases GFR and proteinuria in patients without diabetes at risk of progressive kidney function loss via a glucose independent hemodynamic mechanism.

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 9 inclusion and 24 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 17 Jun 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in Netherlands, Canada, Malaysia. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 17 Jun 2024). 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?

Change in 24-hr Proteinuria With Dapagliflozin for Six Weeks Relative to Placebo in Patients With Non-diabetic Kidney Disease and Proteinuria 500 mg/Day on Stable Angiotensin-converting Enzyme Inhibitor or Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker Treatment. (time frame: 6 weeks). 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 NCT03190694, which also lists 2 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 17 Jun 2024.
