Empagliflozin in the Treatment of Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction in Addition to Background Therapies and Therapeutic Combinations (EMPEROR-Reduced): A Post-hoc Analysis of a Randomised, Double-blind Trial
Lancet Diabetes Endocrinol 2022;10:35–45 doi.org/10.1016/S2213-8587(21)00292-8
The data from the trial suggests that empagliflozin may be considered as a foundational therapy in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. This post-hoc analysis of EMPEROR-Reduced – a randomised, double-blind, parallel-group trial – by Verma et al. evaluated the efficacy and safety of empagliflozin in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and to baseline treatment.
Early Benefit With Empagliflozin in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction: Insights From the EMPEROR-Preserved Trial
Eur J Heart Fail 2022;24(2):245–8. doi:10.1002/ejhf.2420
Results reinforce sustained clinical, health status and quality of life benefits with empagliflozin in patients with HF‑pEF, and underscore the need for timely initiation of therapy.
Cardiovascular and Renal Outcomes with Empagliflozin in Heart Failure
N Engl J Med 2020;383:1413–24 DOI 10.1056/NEJMoa2022190
Empagliflozin demonstrated a reduction in CV death, HF hospitalisation, rate of eGFR decline and risk of serious renal outcomes in patients with chronic HF and reduced ejection fraction in the EMPEROR-reduced study.
