About this study

The focus of this study is to investigate the use of Dapagliflozin in HFrEF (NYHA II-IV) patients with or without diabetes who have CardioMEMS® implanted to assess the impact on pulmonary artery pressure measurements after 12 weeks of therapy.

Read the detailed description

Prior studies have demonstrated an association between the use of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors for diabetic patients and reductions in composite primary outcomes of cardiovascular mortality, nonfatal myocardial infarction, or nonfatal stroke, as well as reductions in heart failure among patients with diabetes. The 2019 DAPA-HF trial studied whether the addition of the SCLT-2 inhibitor dapagliglozin could benefit patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), either with or without diabetes. Results indicated that that SGLT-2 inhibitors resulted in 4.9% absolute reduction in the cardiovascular death or worsening heart failure and a 2.3% absolute reduction in all-cause mortality in patients with and without diabetes. Dapagliflozin is FDA approved to reduce the risk of cardiovascular death or hospitalization in patients with HFrEF with or without Type 2 diabtes. The mechanisms of cardiovascular benefit remain unclear, however it is likely to be driven by a reduction in heart failure death given that rates of myocardial infarction were similar between treatment arms.

The CardioMEMS® system is an implantable device that can measure pulmonary artery systolic, diastolic and mean pressure on a daily basis. It has been shown convincingly that monitoring the MEMS device results in reduced pulmonary pressures and in turn a reduction in heart failure hospitalizations.

The focus of this study is to investigate the use of Dapagliflozin in HFrEF (NYHA II-IV) patients with or without diabetes who have CardioMEMS® implanted to assess the impact on pulmonary artery pressure measurements after 12 weeks of therapy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Dapagliflozin and CardioMEMS in people with Heart Failure, Systolic, run by Scripps Health at 1 site 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 0 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 30 Sep 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 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. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Effect of Dapagliflozin on pulmonary diastolic pressure from baseline to 12 weeks of therapy Secondary End Points (time frame: 12 weeka). The study lists 2 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 NCT04570865, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 30 Sep 2020.
