About this study

Official title: Effect of Adjuvant Dapagliflozin on Improving the Treatment of Congestion in Patients With Acute Heart Failure (DAPA-RESPONSE-AHF)

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.

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in dyspnea ( Visual analogue scale) (VAS)

    • 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

    Measured: From baseline to day 4

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Incidence of worsening heart failure (HF)

    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.

    Measured: From the date of randomization until discharge or end of treatment, whichever came first, assessed up to 30 days

  2. All-cause death

    Difference in all cause mortality rate

    Measured: 30 days from discharge

  3. All-cause death

    Difference in all cause mortality rate

    Measured: 60 days from discharge

  4. Hospital readmission

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

    Measured: 30 days from discharge

  5. Hospital readmission

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

    Measured: 60 days from discharge

  6. Urinary sodium 2 hours post randomization

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

    Measured: 2 Hours

  7. Difference in serum levels of congestion biomarkers

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

    Measured: 4 days post-randomization

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Dapagliflozin 10mg Tab in people with Acute Heart Failure, run by Mansoura University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Aug 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in dyspnea ( Visual analogue scale) (VAS) (time frame: From baseline to day 4). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05406505, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Aug 2023.
