Effect of Dapagliflozin in Patients With Acute Heart Failure (DAPA-RESPONSE-AHF)

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Acute Heart Failure
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT05406505
Lead Sponsor
Mansoura University
Brief Summary

Dapagliflozin, a sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2i), increases natriuresis alone and synergistically when combined with loop diuretics in patients with AHF without increasing renin angiotensin- aldosterone activity. Thus, adding SGLT2i to the standard loop diuretic therapy might confer additional decongestive and natriuretic benefits while avoiding the adverse electrolyte abnormalities and neurohormonal activation associated with other diuretic combination. These potential benefits may help with improved clinical outcomes, but clinical evidence is still lacking.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in dyspnea ( Visual analogue scale) (VAS)From baseline to day 4

• Comparing the area under the curve (AUC) of change in VAS dyspnea score. To do so, individual changes in VAS score will be visualized as a curve where the x-axis shows study day baseline to day 5, and y-axis shows VAS score. the overall VAS AUC score (mm × h) will be compared across treatment groups

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Incidence of worsening heart failure (HF)From the date of randomization until discharge or end of treatment, whichever came first, assessed up to 30 days

Defined as worsening signs and/or symptoms of HF that require IV inotropic therapy or admission to an intensive care unit or mechanical ventilatory, renal or circulatory support.

All-cause death60 days from discharge

Difference in all cause mortality rate

Difference in serum levels of congestion biomarkers4 days post-randomization

Difference in serum levels of Nt-ProBNP 4 days post-randomization

Hospital readmission60 days from discharge

Difference between groups in rate of readmission after discharge for heart failure reason

Urinary sodium 2 hours post randomization2 Hours

Difference in sodium execrated in urine (mmol/L) after 2 hours between study groups
