Effectiveness of sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors on ischaemic heart disease.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

To compare the cardiovascular risks between users and non-users of sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors based on electronic medical record data from a large integrated healthcare system in South Louisiana.

Materials and methods

Demographic, anthropometric, laboratory and medication prescription information for patients with type 2 diabetes who were new users of SGLT2 inhibitors, either as initial treatments or as add-on treatments, were obtained from electronic health records. Mediation analysis was performed to evaluate the association of use of SGLT2 inhibitors and changes of metabolic risk factors with the risk of incident ischaemic heart disease.

Results

A total of 5338 new users of SGLT2 inhibitors were matched with 13 821 non-users. During a mean follow-up of 3.26 years, 2302 incident cases of ischaemic heart disease were defined. After adjusting for multiple confounding factors, patients using SGLT2 inhibitors had a lower risk of incident ischaemic heart disease compared to patients not using SGLT2 inhibitors (hazard ratio [HR] 0.63, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.54-0.73). Patients using SGLT2 inhibitors also had a lower risk of incident ischaemic heart disease within 6 months (HR 0.36, 95% CI 0.25-0.44), 12 months (HR 0.40, 95% CI 0.32-0.49), 24 months (HR 0.53, 95% CI 0.43-0.60) and 36 months (HR 0.65, 95% CI 0.54-0.73), respectively. Reductions in systolic blood pressure partly mediated lowering risk of ischaemic heart disease among patients using SGLT2 inhibitors.

Conclusions

The real-world data in the present study show the contribution of SGLT2 inhibitors to reducing risk of ischaemic heart disease, and their benefits beyond glucose-lowering.

What Makes Sodium-Glucose Co-Transporter-2 Inhibitors Stand out in Heart Failure?

Project description:PURPOSE OF REVIEW:We highlight the unique properties of the sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2 inhibitors) which may lend favorably to their efficient integration in the background of other heart failure (HF) therapies. We also discuss the unique aspects of SGLT-2 inhibitor dosing, lack of titration needs, effects on kidney function and electrolytes, diuretic activity, and safety in the high-risk peri-hospitalization window. RECENT FINDINGS:Dapagliflozin was recently approved for the treatment of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), irrespective of the presence or absence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) based on the findings of the pivotal DAPA-HF trial. All SGLT-2 inhibitors are once daily medications with minimal drug-drug interactions and do not require titration (for HF treatment) unlike other HF medications. SGLT-2 inhibitors offer modest weight loss and blood pressure reduction without major adverse effects of hyperkalemia, making it ideal for near-simultaneous initiation with other HF medications, and use in high-risk populations (including older adults). Moreover, SGLT-2 inhibitors appear to afford long-term kidney protection in diverse populations. SGLT-2 inhibitors are the latest class of therapies to demonstrate important clinical benefits among patients with HFrEF, and their pharmacological properties favor ease of use and integration in multi-drug disease-modifying regimens.

Sodium-Glucose Co-transporter 2 Inhibitors in the Failing Heart: a Growing Potential.

Project description:Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are a new drug class designed to treat patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, cardiovascular outcome trials showed that SGLT2i also offer protection against heart failure (HF)-related events and cardiovascular mortality. These benefits appear to be independent of glycaemic control and have recently been demonstrated in the HF population with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), with or without T2D. This comprehensive, evidence-based review focuses on the published studies concerning HF outcomes with SGLT2i, discussing issues that may underlie the different results, along with the impact of these new drugs in clinical practice. The potential translational mechanisms behind SGLT2i cardio-renal benefits and the information that ongoing studies may add to the already existing body of evidence are also reviewed. Finally, we focus on practical management issues regarding SGLT2i use in association with other T2D and HFrEF common pharmacological therapies. Safety considerations are also highlighted. Considering the paradigm shift in T2D management, from a focus on glycaemic control to a broader approach on cardiovascular protection and event reduction, including the potential for wide SGLT2i implementation in HF patients, with or without T2D, we are facing a promising time for major changes in the global management of cardiovascular disease.

Sodium-glucose Co-transporter 2 Inhibitors: a New Path for Heart Failure Treatment.

Project description:Results from cardiovascular outcome trials (CVOT) with 5 different sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i; empagliflozin, canagliflozin, dapagliflozin, ertugliflozin, sotagliflozin), initially developed for their glucose-lowering effect by blocking tubular glucose reabsorption in kidney, have been shown to decrease the risk of heart failure hospitalization (HFH) across a range of patients with and without atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Following these CVOT results, SGLT2i (dapagliflozin, empagliflozin, sotagliflozin) also were reported to reduce HFH and cardiovascular death in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), regardless of existence or absence of T2DM. Ongoing studies have been conducted to evaluate the clinical benefit of SGLT2i (empagliflozin, dapagliflozin) in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Although SGLT2i brought us to the entrance of a new era for prevention of HF incidence and worsening of HF, the search for pivotal mechanism of SGLT2i to improve our pharmacological armamentarium should continue in order to protect every HF patient from fatal progression of HF disease. In this review, we summarized the updated clinical evidences on SGLT2i (rather than basic and translational evidence) for reduction of HF risk in T2DM patients and favorable clinical outcomes in both HFrEF and HFpEF patients.

Renal Effects of Sodium-Glucose Co-Transporter Inhibitors.

Project description:Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors immediately reduce the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. When given chronically, they confer benefit by markedly slowing the rate at which chronic kidney disease progresses and are the first agents to do so since the advent of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs). Salutary effects on the kidney were first demonstrated in cardiovascular outcomes trials and have now emerged from trials enriched in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease. A simple model that unifies the immediate and long-term effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on kidney function is based on the assumption that diabetic hyperfiltration puts the kidney at long-term risk and evidence that hyperfiltration is an immediate response to a reduced signal for tubuloglomerular feedback, which occurs to the extent that SGLT2 activity mediates a primary increase in sodium and fluid reabsorption by the proximal tubule. This model will likely continue to serve as a useful description accounting for the beneficial effect of SGLT2 inhibitors on the diabetic kidney, similar to the hemodynamic explanation for the benefit of ACEIs and ARBs. A more complex model will be required to incorporate positive interactions between SGLT2 and sodium-hydrogen exchanger 3 in the proximal tubule and between sodium-glucose co-transporter 1 (SGLT1) and nitric oxide synthase in the macula densa. The implication of these latter nuances for day-to-day clinical medicine remains to be determined.

Eligibility of outpatients with chronic heart failure for sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors.

Project description:AimsSodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have been shown to have a relevant role in the prevention of hospitalizations for heart failure and improvement in the life expectancy of patients with diabetes and outpatients with chronic heart failure (CHF) with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction, independently from the presence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The aim of our study was to evaluate in a real-world population the number of outpatients with CHF who meet the enrolment criteria of the main randomized controlled trials (RCT) published in the last 5 years and consequently identify the percentage of patients who could potential benefit from SGLT2i therapy.Methods and resultsWe retrospectively evaluated all consecutive outpatients referred for CHF. The diagnosis of T2DM was according to the latest European Society of Cardiology Guidelines. Clinical characteristics considered for the enrolment in the RCTs were recorded. We enrolled 515 patients, 384 (75%) of whom had a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤ 40%, 82 (16%) had pre-diabetes, and 187 (36%) had diabetes. Most of the patients with LVEF ≤ 40% met the criteria for the DAPA-HF trial (65%), and this percentage was even higher if the serum level of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide was not considered. A high percentage of patients with diabetes and LVEF > 40% met the criteria for the DECLARE (39%), CANVAS (47%), and EMPA-REG (30%) trials. Patients meeting the enrolment criteria of RCTs evaluating SGLT2i were also characterized by a high risk of heart failure events during follow-up.ConclusionsIn spite of a low number of patients actually treated with SGLT2i, we observed that a high prevalence of patients with CHF met the clinical characteristics of RCTs that have demonstrated a beneficial effect of SGLT2i.

Sodium-Glucose Co-Transporter 2 Inhibitors and Fracture Risk.

Project description:Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) appear to have increased risk for fractures. In this context, the finding that canagliflozin, a sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT) inhibitor, increased the risk for fracture compared with placebo in the Canagliflozin Cardiovascular Assessment Study (CANVAS), a large randomized controlled trial (RCT) in patients with established cardiovascular disease or multiple cardiovascular risk factors, created concern. In the present review, we summarize the data regarding the association between SGLT2 inhibitors and fracture risk in patients with T2DM. In contrast to the findings reported in CANVAS, canagliflozin did not affect the risk of fracture in a more recent, large RCT in patients with diabetic nephropathy. In addition, empagliflozin and dapagliflozin, other members of this class, also do not appear to affect the incidence of fracture. Moreover, there is no clear pathogenetic mechanism through which SGLT2 inhibitors increase the risk for fractures. Therefore, available data are inconclusive to attribute to these drugs a direct responsibility for bone fractures.

Use of sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors in acute heart failure: a practical guidance.

Project description:AimsHeart failure (HF) is the most frequent cause of hospital admission among patients 65 years or older. Patients hospitalized for acutely decompensated chronic HF and 'de novo' acute heart failure (AHF) continue to experience unacceptably high post-discharge readmission and mortality rates.Methods and resultsUntil recently, trials had failed to improve outcome in patients with AHF irrespective of ejection fraction with exception of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) that improved clinical outcomes in patients hospitalized for AHF in the Study to Test the Effect of Empagliflozin in Patients Who Are in Hospital for Acute Heart Failure (EMPULSE) and in the Effect of Sotagliflozin on Cardiovascular Events in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Post Worsening Heart Failure (SOLOIST-WHF) trials.ConclusionsThis document reviews the potential utility of SGLT2i in patients hospitalized for AHF.

Sodium-Glucose Co-transporter 2 Inhibitors in Heart Failure: Recent Data and Implications for Practice.

Project description:Heart failure is a shared chronic phase of many cardiac diseases and its prevalence is on the rise globally. Previous large-scale cardiovascular outcomes trials of sodium.glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) have suggested that these agents may help to prevent primary and secondary hospitalisation due to heart failure and cardiovascular death in these patients. Data from the Study to Evaluate the Effect of Dapagliflozin on the Incidence of Worsening Heart Failure or Cardiovascular Death in Patients With Chronic Heart Failure (DAPA-HF) and Empagliflozin Outcome Trial in Patients With Chronic Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction (EMPEROR-Reduced) have demonstrated the positive clinical impact of SGLT2 inhibition in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction both with and without T2D. These data have led to the approval of dapagliflozin for the treatment of patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, irrespective of T2D status. This article reviews the latest data reported from the DAPA-HF and EMPEROR-Reduced trials and their clinical implications for the treatment of patients with heart failure.

Real-World Effectiveness of Sodium Glucose Co-Transporter-2 Inhibitors in Japanese Patients with Diabetes Mellitus.

Project description:INTRODUCTION:Sodium glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have been on the market for 5 years in Japan. We explored the real-world effectiveness of SGLT2i in Japan. METHODS:We retrospectively analyzed two large Japanese administrative databases from JMDC Inc.: insurance-dataset (I-dataset) and Medical Data Vision Co. Ltd. [hospital-dataset (H-dataset)]. Patients who newly started SGLT2i or other oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) between 1 April 2014 and 31 March 2016 were selected for this analysis and followed for 1 year from the index date. Changes in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), body mass index (BMI), and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were evaluated during the 1-year period. RESULTS:A total of 127,961 patients in the H-dataset and 26,436 in the I-dataset were included in this analysis. Baseline HbA1c, BMI, and eGFR levels tended to be higher in SGLT2i users than in other OAD cohorts. After 1 year, 44.3% (I-dataset) and 53.3% (H-dataset) of SGLT2i users and 33.0-44.2% (I-dataset) and 47.0-58.1% (H-dataset) of other users were still on their medications. The mean HbA1c level decreased by - 0.7 to - 0.9% in SGLT2i users versus - 0.4 to - 1.5% in the other cohorts. The mean BMI decreased by - 0.8 kg/m2 in SGLT2i users whereas the change in other cohorts was - 0.5 to 0.4 kg/m2. No clinically relevant changes in eGFR were observed over the period. CONCLUSION:This study showed that around half of the SGLT2i users were still on medication after 1 year from treatment initiation. Initiation of SGLT2i was associated with improvement in HbA1c and BMI, with no abnormal changes in renal function observed in the first year following treatment. These findings support the results from clinical trials and will expand the existing evidence of SGLT2i use in real-life practice in Japan. FUNDING:Astellas Pharma Inc., Tokyo, Japan.
