Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment with Dapagliflozin (DAPA) for 6 months will improve pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) during exercise in heart failure/preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and improve cardiac metabolism.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Signed informed consent prior to any study specific procedures.
  • Male or female.
  • Symptoms of dyspnea (NYHA II-III) with no non-cardiac or ischemia explanation.
  • EF ≥ 50% + BMI ≥ 30 kg/m^2
  • Elevated pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) during exercise (≥ 25 mmHg) ascertained at Visit 1. Patients that have consented to study procedures but do not meet this invasive criterion will be considered as screen failures and will not be randomized .

Exclusion Criteria

  • Type I diabetes.
  • Type II diabetes with poor control (HgbA1C ≥ 10%).
  • Recent hospitalization ( mild stenosis, > moderate regurgitation),
  • Severe kidney disease (estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) < 30) or liver disease,
