Effect of Canagliflozin on Heart Failure Hospitalization in Diabetes According to Baseline Heart Failure Risk

JACC Heart Fail. 2023. DOI: 10.1016/j.jchf.2023.03.025

In the CANVAS programme, canagliflozin reduced the risk of HF hospitalisation among individuals with T2D. This post hoc analysis evaluated heterogeneity in the treatment effects of canagliflozin on HF hospitalisation according to baseline HF risk as assessed by two diabetes-specific HF risk scores: WATCH-DM (for participants without prevalent HF) and TRS-HFDM (all participants).

Cardiac and Kidney Benefits of Empagliflozin in Heart Failure Across the Spectrum of Kidney Function: Insights From the EMPEROR-Preserved Trial

European Journal of Heart Failure 2023 DOI 10.1002/ejhf.2857

In the EMPEROR-Preserved trial, empagliflozin was found to improve the clinical outcomes of patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). This pre-specified analysis sought to explore the effect of empagliflozin on cardiovascular (CV) and kidney outcomes across different levels of kidney function.

Empagliflozin in Black Versus White Patients with Heart Failure: Analysis of EMPEROR-Pooled

Circulation. 2022; online ahead of print DOI: 10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.122.062644

While analyses from DAPA-HF and EMPEROR-Reduced demonstrated a consistent benefit of SGLT2i in Black patients, data were limited to HFrEF and included a small number of Black patients. In the current analysis, the efficacy and safety of empagliflozin according to Black vs White race in the Americas was assessed across the spectrum of EF in EMPEROR-Pooled, a combined dataset from both EMPEROR trials.

Effects of Empagliflozin on Cardiovascular and Renal Outcomes in Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction According to Age: a Secondary Analysis of EMPEROR-Reduced

Eur J Heart Fail. 2022; online ahead of print DOI: 10.1002/ejhf.2707

Results from EMPEROR-Reduced demonstrated that empagliflozin improved CV and renal outcomes in patients with HFrEF, but its efficacy and safety across patient's age is not well established.

Empagliflozin, Irrespective of Blood Pressure, Improves Outcomes in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction: the EMPEROR-Preserved Trial

Eur Heart J. 2022; online ahead of print DOI: 10.1093/eurheartj/ehac693

Results from EMPEROR-Preserved demonstrated that empagliflozin improved CV and renal outcomes in patients with HFpEF, but its efficacy and safety with baseline SBP is not well established.

Efficacy of Empagliflozin in Heart Failure with Preserved versus Mid-range Ejection Fraction: a Pre-specified Analysis of EMPEROR-Preserved

Nat Med. 2022;28:2512–2520 DOI: 10.1038/s41591-022-02041-5

Results from EMPEROR-Preserved demonstrated that empagliflozin improved CV death and HF hospitalisation – the primary outcome – in patients with HF and LVEF >40%. This pre-specified analysis of EMPEROR-Preserved aimed to evaluate the effect of empagliflozin in patients with HFpEF (LVEF ≥50%) compared with patients who had HFmrEF (LVEF 41–49%).

Association of Empagliflozin Treatment With Albuminuria Levels in Patients With Heart Failure: A Secondary Analysis of EMPEROR-Pooled

JAMA Cardiol. 2022; online ahead of print DOI: 10.1001/jamacardio.2022.2924

In a post-hoc analysis of EMPEROR-Pooled, empagliflozin was associated with a reduction in the primary outcome irrespective of albuminuria levels at baseline compared with placebo, and there was reduced progression to macroalbuminuria and reversion of macroalbuminuria.

Uric Acid and Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 Inhibition With Empagliflozin in Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction: The EMPEROR-Reduced Trial

Eur Heart J 2022; online ahead of print doi.org/10.1093/eurheartj/ehac320

Hyperuricaemia is common in heart failure (HF) and is an independent predictor of advanced disease severity and increased mortality. This analysis from EMPEROR-Reduced showed that empagliflozin induced a rapid and sustained reduction of both serum uric acid (SUA) and of clinical events related to hyperuricaemia.

Empagliflozin Improves Outcomes in Patients With Heart Failure and Preserved Ejection Fraction Irrespective of Age

J Am Coll Cardiol 2022;80(1):1-18 doi: 10.1016/j.jacc.2022.04.040

Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) reduce cardiovascular death and hospitalisation for heart failure (HHF) in patients with HFpEF, and are recommended in recent guidelines for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), supported by Class IA evidence. Typically, HFpEF patients are older than HFrEF, and have a higher mortality risk associated with older age, while the risk for cardiovascular death is lower than in HFrEF. Until now, the treatment effects and safety of SGLT2i in relation to age have not been studied. This prespecified analysis of the EMPEROR-Preserved trial examined the interplay of age and empagliflozin treatment effects.

For patients on placebo, the incidence of primary outcomes and cardiovascular death increased with age. In contrast, empagliflozin reduced the primary outcome, first HHF, and first and recurrent HHF across all age groups. Empagliflozin also improved health-related quality of life, and attenuated the decline of eGFR without age interaction. Additionally, there were no clinically relevant differences in AEs between empagliflozin and placebo across the age groups, and elderly patients tolerated the treatment well.
