Cost-Effectiveness of Dapagliflozin as a Treatment for Chronic Kidney Disease: A Health-Economic Analysis of DAPA-CKD
Clin J Am Soc Nephrol. 2022; online ahead of print DOI: 10.2215/CJN.03790322
Dapagliflozin has been shown to reduce CKD progression and KRT requirement when added to standard therapy in patients with CKD in the DAPA-CKD trial. This analysis was designed to estimate the cost-effectiveness of dapagliflozin for the treatment of CKD from payer perspectives in the UK, Germany and Spain.
Mechanisms underlying the blood pressure-lowering effects of empagliflozin, losartan and their combination in people with type 2 diabetes: A secondary analysis of a randomized crossover trial
Diabetes Obes Metab. 2022; online ahead of print DOI: 10.1111/dom.14864
This prespecified analysis of the RECOLAR study investigated the effects of the sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2i), empagliflozin, the angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB), losartan, and their combination on blood-pressure lowering, while studying the mechanisms potentially involved.
Canagliflozin and atrial fibrillation in type 2 diabetes mellitus: A secondary analysis from the CANVAS Program and CREDENCE trial and meta-analysis
Diabetes Obes Metab. 2022;24:1927–1938 DOI: 10.1111/dom.14772
A pooled analysis from the CANVAS Program and CREDENCE trial found that canagliflozin did not have a significant effect on the incidence of atrial fibrillation/atrial flutter (AF/AFL) in patients with type 2 diabetes and high risk of cardiovascular disease or chronic kidney disease.
Dapagliflozin and New-Onset Type 2 Diabetes in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease Or Heart Failure: Pooled Analysis of the DAPA-CKD and DAPA-HF Trials
Lancet Diabetes Endocrinol 2022;10:24–34 doi.org/10.1016/
Chronic kidney disease and heart failure are insulin resistant states associated with high incidence rates of diabetes. Rossing et al. carried out a two Phase 3, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials assessed the effect of dapagliflozin on new-onset type 2 diabetes, in a pooled analysis of data from 6,608 individuals.
