Summary

This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of dapagliflozin treatment in preventing hospital re-admissions, emergency room (ER) visits, urgent clinic visits, and death in patients with and without type 2 diabetes (T2D) after hospital admission for heart failure.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Males or females between the ages of 18 and 90 years, with ADHF, and New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II, III, or IV symptoms discharged after hospital admission with a clinical diagnosis ADHF
  • Elevated natriuretic peptide tests measure levels of BNP (NT-pro-BNP) ≥300 pg/ml or B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) ≥100 pg/ml on admission
  • Interpretable echocardiogram during hospital admission (or within 12 months prior to index hospitalization)
  • Blood glucose level 90 years
  • Subjects with a history of type 1 diabetes
  • Treatment with thiazolidinediones (TZDs) or SGLT2-i during the past 3 months of admission
  • Recurrent episodes of severe hypoglycemia or hypoglycemic unawareness
  • History of recurrent HF admissions considered to be due to non-compliance (evaluated by the research staff for participation)
  • Patients with clinically significant hepatic disease (cirrhosis, jaundice, end-stage liver disease, portal hypertension) and elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) > 3 times upper limit of normal
  • Patients with impaired renal function (GFR 200 mmHg at randomization
  • Female subjects who are pregnant or breast-feeding at time of enrollment into the study
  • Females of childbearing potential who are not using adequate contraceptive methods
  • In hospice or expected life expectancy less than 6 months
  • Patients with diabetic foot infection, osteomyelitis and history of amputation of lower extremities within 6 months of admission
  • Patients anticipated to undergo major surgical procedures during the following 6 months
  • Patients with active hematuria, urinary tract infection (UTI), or history of frequent UTIs or genital mycotic infections
  • Uncontrolled atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter with a resting heart rate >110bpm documented by ECG at randomization
  • Any condition that in the opinion of the investigator would contraindicate the assessment of distance walked in 6 minutes (6MWD)
  • Chronic pulmonary disease, i.e. with known forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1) <50% requiring home oxygen, or oral steroid therapy or current hospitalization for severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) thought to be a primary contributor to dyspnea, or significant chronic pulmonary disease in the Investigator's opinion, or primary pulmonary arterial hypertension
  • Patients with active history of bladder cancer
  • Patients with previous history of diabetic ketoacidosis, per American Diabetes Association (ADA) criteria
