About this study

Official title: Effect of Gliflozins on Heart Failure Due to Regurgitant Rheumatic Valve Disease

The objective of this trial is to detect impact of Gliflozin on patients with heart failure due to reurgitant rheumatic valve disease

Read the detailed description
  • Rheumatic heart disease is a chronic sequel of acute rheumatic fever caused by group A β hemolytic Streptococcal pharyngitis and possibly pyoderma, which mimics molecular heart structures so the immune response leads to carditis and valvular heart damage. Damage to valves cause mitral and/or aortic regurgitation, or in long-standing stenosis. Complications of rheumatic heart disease include heart failure, embolic stroke, endocarditis and atrial fibrillation .
  • Heart failure (HF) is a progressive syndrome characterised by the inability of the heart to provide adequate blood supply to meet the metabolic demand of different tissues .
  • The recent ESC/AHA/ACC guidelines of HF set medications as class 1 for the HF therapy as ACE-I/ ARNI/beta-blocker/MRA/ SGLT2 I as they reduced the risk of cardiovascular death and worsening HF in patients with HFrEF , Unless contraindicated or not tolerated.
  • Empagliflozin is an orally available inhibitor sodium glucose co-transporter 2 receptor (SGLT-2), empagliflozin exerts its effect by preventing sodium and glucose reabsorption from proximal convoluted tubules. This leads to increased urinary sodium and glucose excretion, This is associated with a modest osmotic diuresis, blood pressure lowering effect, improvement in arterial stiffness , and decrease in heart rate.
  • DAPA-HF trial shows: The primary outcome of cardiovascular death, HF hospitalization, for dapagliflozin vs. placebo, was 16.3% vs 21.2% (p < 0.001).
  • EMPA-REG OUTCOME trial shows: The primary outcome, cardiovascular death or HF hospitalization, for empagliflozin vs. placebo, was 19.4% vs. 24.7% ( p < 0.001).
Being tested
SGLT2 inhibitor

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • SGLT2 inhibitorDrug

    Also called gliflozins

Study groups in NCT06097585
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
SGLT2I Groupthe case group that will receive SGLT2I in the treatment
Receives: Drug: SGLT2 inhibitor
non - SGLT2I Groupthe control group that will not receive SGLT2I in the treatment

What is being measured

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

  1. Change of the clinical condition

    improving or worsening in NYHA class: I- Ordinary physical activity does not cause undue fatigue, dyspnea, or palpitations.

    II- Ordinary physical activity causes fatigue, dyspnea, palpitations, or angina.

    III- Comfortable at rest; less than ordinary physical activity causes fatigue, dyspnea, palpitations, or angina.

    IV- Symptoms occur at rest; any physical activity increases discomfort.

    Measured: 6 months up to 1 year

  2. change of the function and regurge

    improving or worsening in echocardiographic parameter :

    • ejection fraction by simpson methods
    • severity of regurge by color Doppler and continuous wave Doppler

    Measured: 6 months up to 1 year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. major adverse cardiovascular event

    monitor rate for Cardiovascular death, non-fatal stroke, non-fatal myocardial infarction and hospitalization for HF between 2 groups

    Measured: 6 months up to 1 year

  2. Glomerular filtration rate affection

    monitor rate of decline in the estimated glomerular filtration rate between 2 groups

    Measured: 6 months up to 1 year

  3. urinary tract infection

    incidence of urinary tract infection between 2 groups by following urine analysis

    Measured: 6 months up to 1 year

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

Contact Ahmed Y Dandrawy, Bachelor (+201013086863, ahmed_youssef200@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change of the clinical condition (time frame: 6 months up to 1 year). 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 NCT06097585, which also lists 8 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 30 Oct 2023.
