About this study

Official title: Safety and Efficacy of Dapagliflozin in the Treatment of Heart Failure in Non-diabetic Egyptian Patients

prospectively evaluation the safety and efficacy of the Sodium-glucose Cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor dapagliflozin in non-diabetic patients with heart failure and a reduced ejection fraction

Read the detailed description

Heart failure (HF) is a complex clinical syndrome characterized by the reduced ability of the heart to pump and/or fill with blood. From a physiological point of view, HF can be defined as an inadequate cardiac output to meet metabolic demands.

HF is a growing public health problem, with an estimated 63 million people affected worldwide , with HF being the underlying cause of more than 1 million hospitalizations every year. These hospitalizations are associated with poor prognosis (50% rate of re-hospitalization within 6 months after discharge and around 33% rate of death within 12 months after discharge), In addition, the prevalence of patient with HF and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is higher and has greater mortality rates than those with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).

Sodium-glucose Cotransporter-2(SGLT2) inhibitors are a novel class of anti diabetic agents that promote urinary glucose excretion by inhibiting glucose and sodium reabsorption from the renal proximal tubules and have recently been investigated in several large randomized controlled trials for cardiovascular safety and efficacy in patients with type 2 diabetes .

More recently, the DAPA-HF trial which showed that dapagliflozin significantly improved the outcomes of patients with HFrEF and reduced the risk of the composite outcome of CV death or the worsening of HF versus placebo by 26% irrespective of the presence or absence of T2DM, demonstrated the significance of SGLT2 inhibitors as novel therapeutic agents in heart failure.

In May 2020,The FDA approved AstraZeneca's dapagliflozin (Forxiga) for the treatment of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) in adults with and without type 2 diabetes (T2D), marking the first time a drug in a class developed for diabetes was approved for heart failure even if diabetes is not present.

This study is established to investigate safety and efficacy of dapagliflozin in non-diabetic patients with heart failure.

What is being measured

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

  1. left ventricular ejection fraction

    Assessment of Echo parameters of LV-systolic function as EF

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. left ventricular end-systolic volume, left ventricular end-diastolic volume

    Assessment of Echo parameters of LV-systolic function as LVESV, LVEDV

    Measured: 6 months

  2. E/e', LAVI, septal e'

    Assessment of Echo parameters of LV- diastolic function as E/e', LAVI, septal e'

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Failure, run by Helwan 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 2 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 29 Jan 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.

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?

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?

left ventricular ejection fraction (time frame: 6 months). 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 NCT05727423, which also lists 4 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 29 Jan 2024.
