Overview
Brief Summary
Cardiovascular events remain a major driver of morbidity and mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Diffuse coronary atherosclerosis, combined with impairment of the microcirculation are frequent even in asymptomatic patients and can lead to unfavourable outcomes. In recent years, novel classes of antidiabetic drugs have been introduced, with salutary effects on cardiovascular outcomes of diabetic patients. The sodium-glucose linked transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors - gliflozins - bind to the SGLT2 receptors of the proximal tubule of the nephron and cause glycosuria. They have been shown to have favourable cardiovascular effects by reducing deaths from cardiovascular causes in type 2 diabetic patients.
Moreover, dapagliflozin reduces hospitalisation for heart failure in type 2 diabetic heart failure patients with and without reduced ejection fraction and reduces cardiovascular death and all causes mortality in those with reduced ejection fraction.
It is currently unknown if this is mediated by improvement of coronary physiology both at the level of the epicardial coronary arteries as well as the coronary microcirculation.
The purpose of the study is to explore the impact of dapagliflozin on the coronary and microcirculatory function of type 2 diabetic patients.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
the longitudinal change of the Fractional Flow Reserve (FRR)
Time Frame: up to 6 months
The longitudinal change (Δ) of FFR is defined as the value at follow-up (6 months) minus the value at baseline. The complete assessment of the function of the coronary circulation will be performed by using a dedicated pressure and temperature equipped coronary guidewire (PressureWire X by Abbott Vascular) and the Coroventis CoroFlow software platform. In the presence of coronary lesions, the degree of percent diameter stenosis will be measured by quantitative coronary angiography and their hemodynamic significance will be evaluated by measuring fractional flow reserve (FFR). According to the guidelines for myocardial revascularisation, only the lesions that have an FFR value equal or less than 0.8 will be treated by coronary angioplasty . In case of angioplasty, FFR will be also measured immediately after successful implantation of the coronary stent.
the longitudinal change of the Coronary flow reserve (CFR)
Time Frame: up to 6 months
The longitudinal change (Δ) of CFR is defined as the value at follow-up (6 months) minus the value at baseline. The complete assessment of the function of the coronary circulation will be performed by using a dedicated pressure and temperature equipped coronary guidewire (PressureWire X by Abbott Vascular) and the Coroventis CoroFlow software platform. Coronary flow reserve (CFR) will be measured in the vessels of interest, where FFR was measured.
the longitudinal change of the Index of Microvascular Resistance (IMR).
Time Frame: up to 6 months
The longitudinal change (Δ) of IMR is defined as the value at follow-up (6 months) minus the value at baseline. The complete assessment of the function of the coronary circulation will be performed by using a dedicated pressure and temperature equipped coronary guidewire (PressureWire X by Abbott Vascular) and the Coroventis CoroFlow software platform. The Index of Microvascular Resistance (IMR) will be measured in the vessels of interest, where FFR was measured.
