About this study

Official title: Effect of Dapagliflozin on Right Ventricular-Pulmonary Artery Coupling After Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting: a Prospective Single-Center Study

This prospective, single-center observational study evaluates the effect of dapagliflozin 10 mg/day on right ventricular-pulmonary artery coupling measured by the TAPSE/PASP ratio in 72 patients with left ventricular ejection fraction <50% after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB). The primary outcome is the change in TAPSE/PASP ratio from 1 month after surgery (before dapagliflozin) to 7 months after surgery (after 6 months of dapagliflozin therapy).

Read the detailed description

Patients undergo echocardiography at three time points: pre-operatively (T0), at 1 month post-surgery before dapagliflozin initiation (T1), and at 7 months post-surgery after 6 months of dapagliflozin 10 mg/day (T2).

The primary objective is to evaluate the change in the TAPSE/PASP ratio from T1 to T2.

Secondary objectives are to evaluate changes from T1 to T2 in:

  • Pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP)
  • Pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR)
  • Right ventricular fractional area change (RV FAC)
  • Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)
  • NT-proBNP levels
  • Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire-23 (KCCQ-23) overall summary score

The study aims to provide mechanistic insight into the effects of SGLT2 inhibition on right ventricular-pulmonary artery coupling after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in TAPSE/PASP Ratio

    The change in the ratio of tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) to pulmonary artery pressure (PASP) from 1 month after surgery (before dapagliflozin) to 7 months after surgery (after 6 months of dapagliflozin 10 mg/day)

    Measured: 1 month after surgery (before dapagliflozin) to 7 months after surgery (after 6 months of dapagliflozin 10 mg/day)

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Change in Pulmonary Artery Systolic Pressure (PASP)

    The change in pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) calculated as 4 x (TR Vmax)˄2 + estimated right atrial pressure (RAP) from 1 month after surgery (before dapagliflozin) to 7 months after surgery (after 6 months of dapagliflozin 10 mg/day)

    Measured: 1 month after surgery (before dapagliflozin) to 7 months after surgery (after 6 months of dapagliflozin)

  2. Change in Pulmonary Vascular Resistance (PVR)

    The change in pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) calculated as (TR Vmax / VTI RVOT) x 10 + 0.16 (wood units) from 1 month after surgery (before dapagliflozin) to 7 months after surgery (after 6 months of dapagliflozin 10 mg/day)

    Measured: 1 month after surgery (before dapagliflozin) to 7 months after surgery (after 6 months of dapagliflozin)

  3. Change in NT-proBNP Levels

    The change in N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels (pg/ml) from 1 month after surgery (before dapagliflozin) to 7 month after surgery (after 6 months of dapagliflozin 10 mg/day)

    Measured: 1 month after surgery (before dapagliflozin) to 7 months after surgery (after 6 months of dapagliflozin)

  4. Change in Quality of Life (KCCQ-23 Overall Summary Score)

    The change in qulity of life assessed by the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire-23 (KCCQ-23) Overall Summary Score (range 0 to 100), higher score indicates better quality of life) from 1 month after surgery (before dapagliflozin) to 7 months after surgery (after 6 months of dapagliflozin 10 mg/day)

    Measured: 1 month after surgery (before dapagliflozin) to 7 months after surgery (after 6 months of dapagliflozin)

  5. Change in Right Ventricular Fractional Area Change (RV FAC)

    The change in right ventricular fractional area change (RV FAC) calculated as (RVEDA - RVESA) / RVEDA x 100 (%) from 1 month after surgery (before dapagliflozin) to 7 months after surgery ( after 6 months of dapagliflozin 10 mg/day)

    Measured: 1 month after surgery (before dapagliflozin) to 7 months after surgery (after 6 months of dapagliflozin)

  6. Change in Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF)

    The change in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) calculated by biplane Simpson method (%) from 1 month after surgery (befiore dapagliflozin) to 7 months after surgery (after 6 months of dapagliflozin 10 mg/day)

    Measured: 1 month after surgery (before dapagliflozin) to 7 months after surgery (after 6 months of dapagliflozin)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Failure and Coronary Arterial Disease, run by Pyatigorsk City Clinical Hospital Number 1 at 1 site in Russia.

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 4 inclusion and 12 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jun 2026. 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 Russia. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Samson S. Badalyan, MD, PhD (+79614972949, sambadalyan@mail.ru), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in TAPSE/PASP Ratio (time frame: 1 month after surgery (before dapagliflozin) to 7 months after surgery (after 6 months of dapagliflozin 10 mg/day)). 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 17 Jun 2026.
