About this study

Official title: Assessment of the Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone System (RAAS) and Antidiuretic Function in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Before and During Treatment With Sodium-glucose Co-transporter 2 Inhibitors (SGLT2i): the GliRACo 1 Study

Subjects treated with Canagliflozin, Dapagliflozin and Empagliflozin obtained improvement on blood pressure values, body weight and cardiovascular mortality but pathophysiological explanations of these effects are not yet known.

Read the detailed description

The pathophysiological explanations of the cardiovascular improvement of patients treated with SGLT2i are not yet known: osmotic diuresis and natriuresis, direct effects of weight reduction, increased in nitric oxide release, oxidative stress reduction, local renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibition are the supposed mechanism. In the Literature the diuretic effect of SGLT2i therapy seems to be even stronger than thiazide or thiazide-like drugs. However, it is not defined the role of SGLT2i on antidiuretic function (RAAS, brain natriuretic peptide-BNP and antidiuretic hormone-ADH). Defining this relation could be important for:

  • knowing effect of SGLT2i on RAAS (drugs interferences are important particularly during case detection of primary aldosteronism);
  • discovering antidiuretic response to SGLT2i treatment and interactions between RAAS, BNP and ADH on the volume improvement induced by this new antidiabetic drugs.

In addition the aim of the study is to define effect of treatment on blood pressure and body composition.

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing SGLT2 inhibitor in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 and Arterial Hypertension, run by University of Turin, Italy at 1 site in Italy.

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 2 inclusion and 22 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Nov 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Italy. 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Mauro M Maccario, MD (00390116709559, mauro.maccario@unito.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Changes from baseline of antidiuretic function parameters (BNP) (time frame: Before starting SGLT2i and 30 days the starting SGLT2i therapy). The study lists 20 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03917758, which also lists 10 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 3 Nov 2020.
