Effects of Dapagliflozin on Hospitalisations in People with Type 2 Diabetes: Post-hoc Analyses of the DECLARE-TIMI 58 Trial
Lancet Diabetes Endocrinol. 2023;11:233–241 DOI: 10.1016/S2213-8587(23)00009-8
In patients with T2D at high risk of CV or kidney disease, SGLT2is consistently reduce the risk of HF hospitalisations. Less is known about their effects on hospitalisation from any cause, especially in patients with T2D without ASCVD, which includes most of the global population with T2D. Post hoc analyses of DECLARE-TIMI 58 assessed the effect of dapagliflozin on the risks of hospitalisations for any cause and for specific causes in patients with T2D with and without ASCVD.

Patient Characteristics, Outcomes, and Effects of Dapagliflozin According to the Duration of Heart Failure: A Prespecified Analysis of the DELIVER Trial
Circulation 2023; online ahead of print DOI: 10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.122.062918
Whether the efficacy and safety of SGLT2i therapy are maintained with increasing duration of HFmrEF or HFpEF is unknown. In this prespecified analysis of DELIVER, HF duration was categorised as ≤6 months, >6 to 12 months, >1 to 2 years, >2 to 5 years, or >5 years.

Efficacy of Dapagliflozin by Baseline Diabetes Medications: A Prespecified Analysis From the DAPA-CKD Study
Diabetes Care. 2023; online ahead of print DOI: 10.2337/dc22-1514
Achieving optimal glucose control can be challenging in patients with T2D and CKD because impaired kidney function hampers the use of several oral or injectable glucose-lowering therapies (GLTs) and increases the likelihood of hypoglycaemia. This prespecified analysis from the DAPA-CKD trial evaluated whether the benefits of dapagliflozin in patients with T2D and CKD varied by background GLT number or class.

Efficacy and Safety of Dapagliflozin by Baseline Insulin Regimen and Dose: Post Hoc Analyses From DECLARE-TIMI 58
Diabetes Care. 2022; online ahead of print DOI: 10.2337/dc22-1318
Limited data exist regarding the cardiorenal efficacy and safety of SGLT2i in patients treated with intensive insulin regimens including short-acting insulin or high insulin doses. This post hoc analysis of DECLARE-TIMI 58 examined the effects of dapagliflozin vs placebo among 7,013 insulin users at baseline, of whom 4,650 were on regimens that included short-acting insulin and 1,339 were receiving insulin >1 IU/kg.

Efficacy and Safety of Dapagliflozin in Patients with Heart Failure with Mildly Reduced or Preserved Ejection Fraction by Baseline Glycaemic Status (DELIVER): a Subgroup Analysis from an International, Multicentre, Double-blind, Randomised, Placebo-controlled Trial
Lancet Diabetes Endocrinol. 2022;10:869–881 DOI: 10.1016/S2213-8587(22)00308-4
Dapagliflozin was shown to be highly efficacious in patients with HFmrEF and HFpEF in the DELIVER trial. However, whether the benefits of dapagliflozin are observed across glycaemia categories has not been previously reported.

Time to Clinical Benefit of Dapagliflozin in Patients With Heart Failure With Mildly Reduced or Preserved Ejection Fraction: A Prespecified Secondary Analysis of the DELIVER Randomized Clinical Trial
JAMA Cardiol. 2022; online ahead of print DOI: 10.1001/jamacardio.2022.3750
Dapagliflozin was recently shown to reduce CV death or worsening HF events in patients with HF with mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction in the DELIVER trial. This prespecified secondary analysis of DELIVER examined the timeline to onset of clinical benefit with dapagliflozin.
Efficacy and Safety of Dapagliflozin in Heart Failure with Mildly Reduced or Preserved Ejection Fraction According to Age: The DELIVER Trial

Dapagliflozin in Patients Recently Hospitalized With Heart Failure and Mildly Reduced or Preserved Ejection Fraction
J Am Coll Cardiol. 2022; online ahead of print DOI: 10.1016/j.jacc.2022.07.021
This prespecified analysis of the DELIVER trial found that dapagliflozin had beneficial effects on cardiovascular (CV) outcomes in patients with heart failure (HF) with mildly reduced or preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) who were enrolled during or following hospitalisation.
Dapagliflozin across the range of ejection fraction in patients with heart failure: a patient-level, pooled meta-analysis of DAPA-HF and DELIVER
Nat Med. 2022; online ahead of print DOI: 10.1038/s41591-022-01971-4
In a prospective, patient-level pooled meta-analysis of the DAPA-HF and DELIVER trials, dapagliflozin was found to improve clinical outcomes across the range of LVEF.
Iron Deficiency in Heart Failure and Effect of Dapagliflozin: Findings From DAPA-HF
Circulation 2022; online ahead of print DOI: 10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.122.060511
In this post hoc analysis of DAPA-HF, 43.7% of participants had iron deficiency at baseline, which was associated with worse outcomes. Dapagliflozin appeared to increase iron use but improved outcomes, irrespective of iron status at baseline.
