About this study

Official title: Efficacy and Safety of Early Initiation of Canagliflozin in Patients With Acute Decompansted Heart Failure

The study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of the early initiation of canagliflozin treatment in hospitalized heart failure patients with volume overload (warm-wet) who require the use of I.V loop diuretic during the hospitalization period.

Read the detailed description

The study will focus on the role of adding canagliflozin to I.V loop diuretic therapy early in unstable hospitalized acute heart failure patients regardless of diabetic state, patients who will be included in the study will continue on canagliflozin for 3 months after hospital discharge to evaluate the incidence of re-hospitalization, mortality rate and other benefits related to HF symptoms will be investigated.

What is being measured

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

  1. The cumulative mean of daily diuresis

    which is define as total urine output in 24 hours during the hospitalization period.

    Measured: After (day1)24 hours from hospital admission and until Day 5 or discharge if earlier

Secondary outcomes (16)
  1. Measuring diuretic response

    which is the cumulative change in weight (kg) from enrollment until discharge adjusted for cumulative diuretic dose in IV furosemide or equivalents

    Measured: Baseline to hospital discharge, an average of 5-6 days

  2. The change in the level of NT-pro BNP

    The change in the level of NT-pro BNP between the hospital admission day and the day of discharge.

    Measured: Baseline to hospital discharge, an average of 5-6 days

  3. Presence of symptoms of congestion and dyspnea at discharge

    measured via the change in visual analogue scale (VAS) dyspnea score between enrollment day and the discharge day. the score goes between 0-10 where 0 = no breathlessness to 10 = worst breathlessness possible.

    Measured: Baseline to hospital discharge, an average of 5-6 days.

  4. Intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay

    measured as days from admission to ICU to discharge.

    Measured: Baseline to hospital discharge, an average of 5-6 days

  5. The incidence of worsening of heart failure case

    which is defined as failure of IV diuretic regimen to stabilize the patient state during hospitalization which requires the use of IV inotropic therapy

    Measured: Baseline to hospital discharge, an average of 5-6 days.

  6. Fractional Excretion of Sodium (FENa)-based diuretic efficiency

    FENa per 40 mg of IV furosemide equivalents of loop dose using spot urine collected 24 hours after continues infusion of loop dose beginning and every day until patients discharge from hospital.

    Measured: Baseline to hospital discharge, an average of 5-6 days.

  7. Serum potassium

    Serum potassium covariate with attention to both elevation and depression on a daily basis during hospitalization period.

    Measured: Baseline to hospital discharge, an average of 5-6 days.

  8. Incidence of ketoacidosis

    reporting ketoacidosis

    Measured: Baseline to 90 days post discharge

  9. Serum glucose covariate adjusted for baseline with attention to both elevation

    (> 400 mg/dL) and depression (< 70 mg/dL).

    Measured: Baseline to hospital discharge, an average of 5-6 days.

  10. Incidence of symptomatic, sustained hypovolemic hypotension

    systolic blood pressure < 90 mmHg over 30 minutes requiring fluid administration

    Measured: Baseline to hospital discharge, an average of 5-6 days.

  11. In-hospital mortality

    incidence of mortality

    Measured: Baseline to hospital discharge, an average of 5-6 days.

  12. Hospital readmission within 90 days of discharge for heart failure

    Re-hospitalization within 90 days from hospital discharge

    Measured: within 90 post discharge

  13. Incidence of mortality within 90 days from discharge due cardiovascular cause

    Incidence of mortality

    Measured: within 90 post discharge

  14. The incidence of worsening of renal function

    which is defined as a decline in the e-GFR of 50% or greater from the baseline during any follow-up points

    Measured: Baseline to 90 post discharge

  15. Any reported adverse events during follow up period.

    ketoacidosis, genital mycotic infection, urinary tract infection, Fournier's gangrene, fractures, or amputation

    Measured: within 90 post discharge

  16. The progression of heart failure severity

    via measuring Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire - Total Symptom Score (KCCQ-TSS)

    .all KCCQ scores are scaled from 0 to 100 and frequently summarized in 25-point ranges, where scores represent health status as follows: 0 to 24: very poor to poor; 25 to 49: poor to fair; 50 to 74: fair to good; and 75 to 100: good to excellent

    Measured: within 90 post discharge

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Canagliflozin and Empagliflozin in people with Chronic Heart Failure and Acute Heart Failure, run by October 6 University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 3 inclusion and 4 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 11 Jul 2024. 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 Egypt. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

The cumulative mean of daily diuresis (time frame: After (day1)24 hours from hospital admission and until Day 5 or discharge if earlier). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 11 Jul 2024.
