Renal haemodynamic response to sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibition does not depend on protein intake: An analysis of three randomized controlled trials.

ABSTRACT: High protein intake may increase intraglomerular pressure through dilation of the afferent arteriole. Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors may reduce intraglomerular pressure through activation of tubuloglomerular feedback. Given these opposing effects, we assessed whether the effect of dapagliflozin on glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) was modified by estimated dietary protein intake using data from three separate randomized controlled trials (DELIGHT, IMPROVE and DIAMOND). The median protein intake was 58.4, 63.6 and 90.0 g/d, respectively. In the DELIGHT trial (n = 233), dapagliflozin compared to placebo caused an acute and reversible dip in GFR of 2.1 and 2.2 mL/min/1.73 m² , and reduced UACR by 20.5% and 28.4% in participants with high and low protein intake, respectively. Similarly, in IMPROVE (n = 30) and DIAMOND (n = 53), the effect of dapagliflozin on GFR and UACR was comparable in participants with high and low protein intake (all P for interaction > 0.40). This post hoc, exploratory analysis of three clinical trials suggests that dietary protein intake does not modify the individual response of clinical kidney variables to dapagliflozin.

Project description:Despite current established therapy, heart failure (HF) remains a leading cause of hospitalization and mortality worldwide. Novel therapeutic targets are therefore needed to improve the prognosis of patients with HF. The EMPA-REG OUTCOME trial ([Empagliflozin] Cardiovascular Outcome Event Trial in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients) demonstrated significant reductions in mortality and HF hospitalization risk in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) and cardiovascular disease with the antihyperglycemic agent, empagliflozin, a sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor. The CANVAS trial (Canagliflozin Cardiovascular Assessment Study) subsequently reported a reduction in 3-point major adverse cardiovascular events and HF hospitalization risk. Although SGLT2 inhibition may have potential application beyond T2D, including HF, the mechanisms responsible for the cardioprotective effects of SGLT2 inhibitors remain incompletely understood. SGLT2 inhibition promotes natriuresis and osmotic diuresis, leading to plasma volume contraction and reduced preload, and decreases in blood pressure, arterial stiffness, and afterload as well, thereby improving subendocardial blood flow in patients with HF. SGLT2 inhibition is also associated with preservation of renal function. Based on data from mechanistic studies and clinical trials, large clinical trials with SGLT2 inhibitors are now investigating the potential use of SGLT2 inhibition in patients who have HF with and without T2D. Accordingly, in this review, we summarize the key pharmacodynamic effects of SGLT2 inhibitors and the clinical evidence that support the rationale for the use of SGLT2 inhibitors in patients with HF who have T2D. Because these favorable effects presumably occur independent of blood glucose lowering, we also explore the potential use of SGLT2 inhibition in patients without T2D with HF or at risk of HF, such as in patients with coronary artery disease or hypertension. Finally, we provide a detailed overview and summary of ongoing cardiovascular outcome trials with SGLT2 inhibitors.

Project description:Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) reduce albuminuria and hard renal outcomes (decline of renal function, renal replacement therapy and renal death) in patients with/without type 2 diabetes at high cardiovascular or renal risk. The question arises whether baseline albuminuria also influences renal outcomes with SGLT2is as reported with renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors. Post hoc analyses focusing on albuminuria and renal outcomes of four cardiovascular outcome trials [EMPA-REG OUTCOME (Empagliflozin Cardiovascular Outcome Event Trial in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients), CANVAS (Canagliflozin Cardiovascular Assessment Study), DECLARE-TIMI 58 (Multicenter Trial to Evaluate the Effect of Dapagliflozin on the Incidence of Cardiovascular Events-Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction 58) and VERTIS CV (Evaluation of Ertugliflozin Efficacy and Safety Cardiovascular Outcomes Trial)] and some renal data from two heart failure trials [Dapagliflozin and Prevention of Adverse Outcomes in Heart Failure (DAPA-HF) and EMPEROR-Reduced (Empagliflozin Outcome Trial in Patients With Chronic Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction)] showed renal protection with SGLT2is without significant interaction (P > 0.10) when comparing renal outcomes according to baseline levels (A1, A2 and A3) of urinary albumin:creatinine ratio (UACR), a finding confirmed in a dedicated meta-analysis. Two trials [CREDENCE (Evaluation of the Effects of Canagliflozin on Renal and Cardiovascular Outcomes in Participants With Diabetic Nephropathy) and DAPA-CKD (Dapagliflozin and Prevention of Adverse Outcomes in Chronic Kidney Disease)] specifically recruited patients with CKD and UACRs of 200-5000 mg/g. A post hoc analysis of CREDENCE that distinguished three subgroups according to UACR (300-1000, 1000-3000 and >3000 mg/g) showed a greater relative reduction in UACR in patients with lower baseline albuminuria levels (P for interaction = 0.03). Patients with a UACR >1000 mg/g showed a significantly greater reduction in absolute (P for interaction < 0.001) and a trend in relative (P for interaction = 0.25) risk of renal events versus those with lower UACR levels. In conclusion, baseline UACR levels do not significantly influence the nephroprotection by SGLT2is, yet the greater protection in patients with very high UACRs in CREDENCE deserves confirmation. The underlying mechanisms of renal protection with SGLT2is might be different in patients with or without (high) UACR.
