Canagliflozin in Patients With Acute Decompensated Heart Failure
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of the early initiation of canagliflozin treatment in hospitalized heart failure patients with volume overload (warm-wet) who require the use of I.V loop diuretic during the hospitalization period.
| Condition or Disease | Intervention/Treatment | Phase |
|---|---|---|
| Phase 3 |
Detailed Description
The study will focus on the role of adding canagliflozin to I.V loop diuretic therapy early in unstable hospitalized acute decompensated heart failure patients regardless of diabetic state, patients who will be included in the study will continue on canagliflozin for 3 months after hospital discharge to evaluate the incidence of re-hospitalization, mortality rate and other benefits related to HF symptoms will be investigated.
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: Group A(Intervention group) patients will receive 100 mg canagliflozin initiated within 24 hours from patients hospital admission due to signs of hypervolemic state. All patients also will be prescribed the conventional diuretic therapy and other medications such as angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs), angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), beta-blockers, angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs). Canagliflozin will be continued for 90 days after hospital discharge |
Drug: Canagliflozin
Canagliflozin will be used in hospitalized heart failure patients regardless diabetic state.
|
| No Intervention: Group B(Control group) Patients in this group will be on the conventional diuretic therapy and other medications such as angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs), angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), beta-blockers, angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors (ARNI), and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) |
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- The cumulative mean of daily diuresis [After (day1)24 hours from hospital admission and until Day 5 or discharge if earlier]
which is define as total urine output in 24 hours during the hospitalization period.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Measuring diuretic response [Baseline to hospital discharge, an average of 5-6 days]
which is the cumulative change in weight (kg) from enrollment until discharge adjusted for cumulative diuretic dose in IV furosemide or equivalents
- The change in the level of NT-pro BNP [Baseline to hospital discharge, an average of 5-6 days]
The change in the level of NT-pro BNP between the hospital admission day and the day of discharge.
- Presence of symptoms of congestion and dyspnea at discharge [Baseline to hospital discharge, an average of 5-6 days.]
measured via the change in visual analogue scale (VAS) dyspnea score between enrollment day and the discharge day. the score goes between 0-10 where 0 = no breathlessness to 10 = worst breathlessness possible.
- Intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay [Baseline to hospital discharge, an average of 5-6 days]
measured as days from admission to ICU to discharge.
- The incidence of worsening of heart failure case [Baseline to hospital discharge, an average of 5-6 days.]
which is defined as failure of IV diuretic regimen to stabilize the patient state during hospitalization which requires the use of IV inotropic therapy
- Fractional Excretion of Sodium (FENa)-based diuretic efficiency [Baseline to hospital discharge, an average of 5-6 days.]
FENa per 40 mg of IV furosemide equivalents of loop dose using spot urine collected 24 hours after continues infusion of loop dose beginning and every day until patients discharge from hospital.
- Serum potassium [Baseline to hospital discharge, an average of 5-6 days.]
Serum potassium covariate with attention to both elevation and depression on a daily basis during hospitalization period.
- Incidence of ketoacidosis [Baseline to 90 days post discharge]
reporting ketoacidosis
- Serum glucose covariate adjusted for baseline with attention to both elevation [Baseline to hospital discharge, an average of 5-6 days.]
(> 400 mg/dL) and depression (< 70 mg/dL).
- Incidence of symptomatic, sustained hypovolemic hypotension [Baseline to hospital discharge, an average of 5-6 days.]
systolic blood pressure < 90 mmHg over 30 minutes requiring fluid administration
- In-hospital mortality [Baseline to hospital discharge, an average of 5-6 days.]
incidence of mortality
- Hospital readmission within 90 days of discharge for heart failure [within 90 post discharge]
Re-hospitalization within 90 days from hospital discharge
- Incidence of mortality within 90 days from discharge due cardiovascular cause [within 90 post discharge]
Incidence of mortality
- The incidence of worsening of renal function [Baseline to 90 post discharge]
which is defined as a decline in the e-GFR of 50% or greater from the baseline during any follow-up points
- Any reported adverse events during follow up period. [within 90 post discharge]
ketoacidosis, genital mycotic infection, urinary tract infection, Fournier's gangrene, fractures, or amputation
- The progression of heart failure severity [within 90 post discharge]
via measuring Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire - Total Symptom Score (KCCQ-TSS) .all KCCQ scores are scaled from 0 to 100 and frequently summarized in 25-point ranges, where scores represent health status as follows: 0 to 24: very poor to poor; 25 to 49: poor to fair; 50 to 74: fair to good; and 75 to 100: good to excellent
