Abstract
Background The influence of genetic variants on the glucose-lowering effects of dapagliflozin remains unclear. This study aims to investigate the impact of polymorphisms in solute carrier family 5 member 2 (SLC5A2), uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase 1A9 (UGT1A9), solute carrier family 2 member 2 (SLC2A2) and member 4 (SLC2A4) on the anti-hyperglycemic effect of dapagliflozin in patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods A total of 141 patients with T2DM were included in this prospective cohort study. Twenty-nine single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were selected and genotyped using the Sequenom MassArray platform or Sanger sequencing. Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels were compared before and after the treatment with dapagliflozin. Results Among the 29 SNPs selected, 27 were successfully analyzed. After three months of dapagliflozin treatment, FBG levels were significantly reduced (8.00 mmol/L (5.45-10.71) mmol/L vs 6.40 mmol/L (5.45-9.20) mmol/L, p = 0.003) in patients with T2DM. However, there was no significant change in HbA1c levels (8.10% (6.88-10.00)% vs 8.10% (6.83-10.00)%, p = 0.452). Analysis of covariance showed that patients with the minor allele homozygote or heterozygote of rs12471030 (CT/TT), rs12988520 (AC/CC) or rs2602381 (TC/CC) had higher FBG levels compared to those with the major allele homozygote (p = 0.014, p = 0.024, and p = 0.044, respectively). After adjusting for baseline FBG level, age, gender, body mass index, use of insulin and use of metformin, three SNPs-rs12471030, rs12988520 and rs2602381-were associated with the anti-hyperglycemic effect of dapagliflozin. However, using a stringent significance threshold (p < 0.002 with Bonferroni correction), none of these selected SNPs were significantly associated with FBG and HbA1c levels after dapagliflozin treatment. Conclusion After adjusting for confounding variables, polymorphisms in SLC5A2, UGT1A9, SLC2A2 and SLC2A4 genes were not associated with the anti-hyperglycemic effect of dapagliflozin in the Chinese population. Clinical Trial Registration Number ChiCTR2200059645.

Acute Kidney Injury and Electrolyte Imbalances Caused by Dapagliflozin Short-Term Use. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2024; 17:420. [PMID: 38675382 PMCID: PMC11053518 DOI: 10.3390/ph17040420] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2024] [Revised: 03/14/2024] [Accepted: 03/19/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Dapagliflozin, a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i), has shown demonstrated benefits for renal and cardiovascular outcomes in large clinical trials. However, short-term concerns regarding its impact on renal function and electrolyte balance exist. This study aimed to evaluate the short-term effects of dapagliflozin on renal function and electrolyte balance in patients newly prescribed the medication. A retrospective analysis of 246 patients who initiated dapagliflozin therapy was conducted. Serum creatinine, sodium, and potassium levels were measured at baseline (before dapagliflozin) and 5-8 days after initiation (endpoint). A Wilcoxon signed-rank test, Pearson's chi-square test, and Fischer's exact test were used for the data analysis. Glycemia and sodium levels were significantly higher at the baseline compared to the endpoint (p < 0.001). Conversely, creatinine and potassium levels were significantly higher at the endpoint than at the baseline (p < 0.001). The prevalence of hyponatremia and hyperkalemia were increased at the endpoint (17.5% vs. 10.2% and 16.7% vs. 8.9%, respectively). Although not statistically significant, a trend towards increased hyponatremia with the co-administration of furosemide was observed (p = 0.089). No significant association was found between potassium-sparing medications (p > 0.05) and hyperkalemia, except for angiotensin receptor blockers (p = 0.017). The combination of dapagliflozin and furosemide significantly increased the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) at the endpoint (p = 0.006). Age, gender, and chronic kidney disease status did not significantly influence the occurrence of AKI, hyponatremia, or hyperkalemia (p > 0.05). These findings emphasize the importance of the close monitoring of renal function and electrolyte balance, particularly in the early stages of dapagliflozin therapy, especially in patients receiving diuretics or renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors.

Abstract
Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a common problem among young women. It is characterized mainly by hyperandrogenism features, such as hirsutism, menstrual problems, and anovulation. Diagnosis is based on the existence of 2 items out of, oligo-ovulation, hyperandrogenism features, and ultrasounds findings. Cardiovascular complications such as hypertension are a prevalent serious condition in these patients which is mainly predisposed by the high levels of androgens, and insulin resistance. High blood pressure should be controlled well to prevent the progression of other serious conditions. Various antihypertensive drugs could be prescribed. However, in selecting an antihypertensive medication, other therapeutic properties of the drug should also be considered. Up to now, many clinicians do not differ between PCOS patients with hypertension and other hypertensive patients. However, being aware of the potential effects of each hypertension drug could help to choose better options for the patient. Here is a brief review of how each antihypertensive drug could affect PCOS women and if they cause any improvement in the disorder progression.

Abstract
As a sodium-glucose transporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i), the cardioprotective benefits of Dapagliflozin (DAPA) are now widely appreciated. However, the underlying mechanism of DAPA on angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced myocardial hypertrophy has never been evaluated. In this study, we not only investigated the effects of DAPA on Ang II-induced myocardial hypertrophy, but explored its underlying mechanisms. Mice were injected with Ang II (500 ng /kg/min) or saline solution as control, followed by intragastric administration DAPA (1.5 mg/kg/day) or saline for four weeks. DAPA treatment alleviated the condition of decrease in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and fractional shortening (LVFS) caused by Ang II. In addition, DAPA treatment significantly alleviated Ang II-induced elevation of the ratio of heart weight to tibia length, as well as cardiac injury and hypertrophy. In mice stimulated with Ang II, the degree of myocardial fibrosis and upregulation of the markers of cardiac hypertrophy (atrial natriuretic peptide, ANP and B-type natriuretic peptide, BNP) were attenuated by DAPA. What's more, DAPA partially reversed the Ang II-induced upregulation of HIF-1α and the decrease in levels of SIRT1. Taken together, activating the SIRT1/HIF-1α signaling pathway was found to confer a protective effect against experimental myocardial hypertrophy in mice induced by Ang II, demonstrating its potential as an effective therapeutic target for pathological cardiac hypertrophy.

Clin Ther 2023; 45:762-769. [PMID: 37442656 DOI: 10.1016/j.clinthera.2023.06.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2023] [Revised: 05/12/2023] [Accepted: 06/12/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE A fixed-dose combination (FDC) product combining dapagliflozin and metformin may increase medication adherence in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) by minimizing pill burden associated with co-administration of individual component (IC) formulations and, consequently, improve cost-efficiency and compliance. This study evaluated the bioequivalence of the dapagliflozin/metformin FDC product versus IC administration in healthy volunteers from a Chinese population and assessed the safety profile of the FDC product. In addition, pharmacokinetic (PK) and safety comparisons of dapagliflozin and metformin across different regions were conducted to evaluate regional differences. METHODS This single-center, open-label, parallel-cohort, randomized, 2-period, crossover study enrolled Chinese adults (aged 18-55 years). Volunteers in cohort 1 received either a single FDC tablet of dapagliflozin/metformin extended release (XR) (5/500 mg) or IC tablets (dapagliflozin [5 mg] and metformin XR [500 mg]). Volunteers in cohort 2 received a higher dosage in a similar manner (dapagliflozin [10 mg] and metformin XR [1000 mg]). Volunteers in each cohort were subsequently crossed over to receive the alternate cohort treatment. Plasma concentrations of dapagliflozin and metformin were determined, and bioequivalence analyses were performed under standard fed conditions. FINDINGS Eighty healthy Chinese volunteers (89.9% male; mean age, 28.7 years) were randomized into cohort 1 (n = 40) and cohort 2 (n = 39; 1 volunteer withdrew before receiving study treatment). The mean plasma concentration-time profiles of the dapagliflozin and metformin FDC and IC formulations for both doses were found to be nearly superimposable. Dapagliflozin and metformin XR FDC were bioequivalent to the IC tablets, with 90% CIs for each pairwise comparison contained within the 80% to 125% bioequivalence limits. Both the FDC and IC formulations were well tolerated, with no serious adverse events/death. PK parameters for dapagliflozin in the Chinese volunteers were slightly to moderately higher than those from studies conducted in Brazil, Russia, and the United States, and the safety profile of the dapagliflozin/metformin FDC product was consistent with that of other studies. The difference in PK parameters among the 4 regions was not clinically meaningful. IMPLICATIONS The bioequivalence of the dapagliflozin/metformin FDC and IC formulations in healthy Chinese adults was established without any new safety concerns. Notably, the observed bioequivalence may be extrapolated to patients with T2DM as the PK parameters of dapagliflozin and metformin in healthy adults are similar to those reported in patients with T2DM.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are a global health concern, affecting millions of patients worldwide and being the leading cause of global morbidity and mortality, thus creating a major public health concern. Sodium/glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have emerged as a promising class of medications for managing CVD. Initially developed as antihyperglycemic agents for treating type 2 diabetes, these drugs have demonstrated significant cardiovascular benefits beyond glycemic control. In our paper, we discuss the role of empagliflozin, dapagliflozin, canagliflozin, ertugliflozin, and the relatively recently approved bexagliflozin, the class of SGLT-2 inhibitors, as potential therapeutic targets for cardiovascular diseases. All mentioned SGLT-2 inhibitors have demonstrated significant cardiovascular benefits and renal protection in clinical trials, in patients with or without type 2 diabetes. These novel therapeutic approaches aim to develop more effective treatments that improve patient outcomes and reduce the burden of these conditions. However, the major scientific achievements of recent years and the many new discoveries and mechanisms still require careful attention and additional studies.

[PMID: 36632075 PMCID: PMC9810488 DOI: 10.12793/tcp.2022.30.e23] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2022] [Revised: 12/15/2022] [Accepted: 12/19/2022] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is a transporter that plays an excretory role in epithelial cells. It is encoded by ABCB1, and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in this gene can affect systemic drug exposure. Dapagliflozin and sitagliptin, used in type 2 diabetes treatment, are P-gp substrates. Here, we aimed to investigate whether ABCB1 polymorphisms affect dapagliflozin and sitagliptin pharmacokinetics (PK) in healthy Korean subjects. The study population consisted of 100 healthy Korean subjects (94 men and 6 women) who participated in four different clinical trials and received dapagliflozin and sitagliptin doses of 10 and 100 mg, respectively. We determined ABCB1 genotypes for the C3435T, C1236T, and G2677T/A SNPs. The relationship between the genotypes and dapagliflozin PKs was examined. Dapagliflozin and sitagliptin PK parameters were not statistically significantly affected by ABCB1 SNP genotypes. However, homozygous 3435TT subjects showed higher dapagliflozin PK parameters than CT and CC subjects. In subjects with the 3435TT and those with 3435CC and 3435CT genotypes, mean Cmax, AUCinf, and AUC0-1 values of dapagliflozin were 223.06 ng/mL and 194.81 ng /mL (p = 0.2767), 673.58 ng*h/mL and 573.96 ng*h/mL (p = 0.0492), and 128.53 ng*h/mL and 104.61 ng*h/mL (p = 0.2678), respectively. In summary, dapagliflozin and sitagliptin PK parameters were not significantly different between individuals with C1236T and C2677T/A ABCB1 genetic polymorphisms. Dapagliflozin exhibited higher systemic exposure in 3435TT subjects than in CC/CT subjects.

Abstract
Heart failure is a prominent clinical condition and a top concern as a widespread health issue. The incidence of heart failure is rising alarmingly on a global scale. Heart failure significantly strains the whole healthcare system financially, degrading the patient's quality of life and increasing the risk of morbidity and mortality. Heart failure treatment has changed over time with ongoing research and the development of new medications and equipment. Recently, the FDA and European Union (EU) approved the drug dapagliflozin, which is an inhibitor of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2i), for treating people with cardiovascular conditions and symptomatic heart failure (HF). In this review article, we will find out whether Dapagliflozin, when given at a dose of 10 mg/day in people with type 2 diabetes and in those without type 2 diabetes who have or are at risk for atherosclerotic alterations, can considerably lower the risk of cardiovascular mortality or hospitalization for HF. In the presence of concomitant HF therapies, dapagliflozin's benefits remained. Dapagliflozin's overall safety profile was comparable to its safety profile for other applications. It was often well tolerated in patients in a study group. In this review article, dapagliflozin is found to be the well-tolerated and effective novel treatment of choice for symptomatic HF. Because of the scarcity of research on dapagliflozin, it was necessary to provide data to help reduce the mortality of patients while providing further guidance on the clinical medication of dapagliflozin.

Jhalani NB. Clinical Considerations for Use of SGLT2 Inhibitor Therapy in Patients with Heart Failure and Reduced Ejection Fraction: A Review. Adv Ther 2022; 39:3472-3487.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) continues to increase in prevalence, representing a significant burden to healthcare systems in the USA. Despite several established HF therapies, particularly for HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), rates of HF hospitalizations and cardiovascular (CV) mortality remain very high. Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is an important risk factor for HF, with the two conditions often occurring concurrently. Several CV outcomes trials have shown that the sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) class of antihyperglycemic drugs reduces the risk of HF-related outcomes in patients with T2D and either established CV disease or multiple CV risk factors. Subsequently, there have been large clinical studies that have investigated the effects of SGLT2is in patients with HFrEF, with or without T2D, which have shown that both dapagliflozin and empagliflozin have significant reductions in hospitalization for HF and CV mortality. These data led to US Food and Drug Administration approval of dapagliflozin and empagliflozin as a novel treatment pathway for patients with HFrEF; empagliflozin has subsequently been approved for the treatment of HF regardless of ejection fraction. A clinical practice algorithm can assist cardiologists in identifying patients who may be eligible for SGLT2i treatment as well as the appropriate timeframe for initiating therapy and the parameters for patient monitoring. Given the evidence that SGLT2is are beneficial in the management of HF, specifically HFrEF, irrespective of underlying T2D, evidence-based recommendations and greater clinician familiarity can facilitate the integration of SGLT2is into general HF therapeutic management.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic, complex metabolic disease characterized by chronic hyperglycemia causing from insufficient insulin signaling because of insulin resistance or defective insulin secretion, and may induce severe complications and premature death. Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are oral drugs used to reduce hyperglycemia in patients with T2DM, including empagliflozin, ertugliflozin, dapagliflozin and canagliflozin. The primary objective of this article is to examine the clinical benefit, safety, and tolerability of the four SGLT2 inhibitors approved by the US FDA. SGLT2 inhibitors increase urinary glucose excretion via inhibiting SGLT2 to decrease renal reabsorption of filtered glucose and reduce the renal threshold for glucose. Rather than stimulating insulin release, SGLT2 inhibitors improve β-cell function by improving glucotoxicity, as well as reduce insulin resistance and increase insulin sensitivity. Early clinical trials have confirmed the beneficial effects of SGLT2 in T2DM with acceptable safety and excellent tolerability. In recent years, SGLT2 inhibitors has been successively approved by the FDA to decrease cardiovascular death and decrease the risk of stroke and cardiac attack in T2DM adults who have been diagnosed with cardiovascular disease, treating heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction and HF with preserved ejection fraction, and treat diabetic kidney disease (DKD), decrease the risk of hospitalization for HF in T2DM and DKD patients. SGLT2 inhibitors are expected to be an effective treatment for T2DM patients with non alcoholic fatty liver disease. SGLT2 inhibitors have a similar safety profile to placebo or other active control groups, with major adverse events such as Ketoacidosis or hypotension and genital or urinary tract infections.

Abstract
Dapagliflozin was associated with an increased risk of diabetic ketoacidosis that has led to the European withdrawal of the authorization for the type 1 diabetes. However, it is still used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Therefore, we aim to evaluate the occurrence of dapagliflozin-induced ketoacidosis events by using the European spontaneous reporting system. The reporting odds ratios (ROR) were computed to assess the reporting frequency of ketoacidosis events for dapagliflozin compared to Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, insulins, or all other Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors. A total of 2406 cases with dapagliflozin reported at least one event of ketoacidosis. The three most reported events were: diabetic ketoacidosis (1412; 55.39%), ketoacidosis (476; 18.67%), and euglycaemic diabetic ketoacidosis (296; 11.61%). Dapagliflozin was associated with the higher reporting frequency of ketoacidosis events compared to DPP-4 inhibitors (ROR 12.07, 95%CI 11.67–13.81) or insulins (ROR 7.59, 95%CI 7.13–7.89). A lower reporting frequency was instead observed compared to other SGLT2 inhibitors (ROR 0.91, 95%CI 0.87–0.96). Considering the higher reporting frequency of ketoacidosis observed with dapagliflozin then DPP-4 inhibitors or insulins, attention should be given to patients treated with this drug.

Abstract
Background Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common in patients with diabetes. The use of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) to achieve good glycemic control increases glucose levels in urine. This glycosuria further enhances the risk of UTIs. This study aimed to evaluate the frequency of UTIs in patients with type 2 diabetes receiving the SGLT2i dapagliflozin as an add-on therapy. Methods We conducted this cross-sectional study at the Endocrinology Department of Hayatabad Medical Complex in Peshawar from April 2020 to September 2020. A total of 400 patients with diabetes receiving either 5 mg or 10 mg of dapagliflozin as an add-on therapy for the treatment of type 2 diabetes were included in this study. We collected blood and urine samples from participants and measured glycosylated hemoglobin levels. Urine samples were cultured on cysteine lactose electrolyte deficient agar. We used IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, version 25.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY) to analyze our data. Results The prevalence of UTIs in diabetic patients receiving 5 mg or 10 mg of dapagliflozin was 5.3%. Women were more affected (76.2%) than men (p < 0.05). UTIs were more prevalent in patients older than 50 years (85.7%) than in any other age group. The dose strength of dapagliflozin was not associated with UTIs (p > 0.05). Conclusion This study examined UTIs in patients taking dapagliflozin for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. These infections were mild to moderate and were treated easily. None of these infections caused the patient to discontinue the treatment. Dapagliflozin is well-tolerated in patients with diabetes but should be used with appropriate caution and monitoring.

Abstract
One of the essential diseases that are increasing in the world is type 2 diabetes (T2D), which many people around the world live with this disease. Various studies have revealed that insulin resistance, lessened insulin production has been associated with T2D, and they also show that this disease can have a genetic origin and is associated with different genes such as KCNQ1, PPAR-γ, calpain-10, ADIPOR2, TCF7L2 that can be utilized as a therapeutic target. Different therapeutic approaches and strategies such as exercise and diet, pharmacological approaches, and utilization of nanoparticles in drug delivery and gene therapy can be effective in the treatment and control of T2D. Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and sodium glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) have both been considered as drug classes in the treatment of T2D and T2D-related diseases such as cardiovascular disease and renal disease, and have considerable influences such as diminished cardiovascular mortality in individuals with T2D, ameliorate postprandial glycaemia, ameliorate fasting glycaemia, and diminish body weight on disease treatment and improvement process. In the present review article, we have made an attempt to explore the risk factors, Genes, and diseases associated with T2D, therapeutic approaches in T2D, the influences of drugs such as Dapagliflozin, Metformin, Acarbose, Januvia (Sitagliptin), and Ertugliflozin on T2D in clinical trials and animal model studies. Research in clinical trials has promising results that support the role of these drug approaches in T2D prophylaxis and ameliorate safety even though additional clinical research is still obligatory.

Dapagliflozin: A Review in Symptomatic Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction. Am J Cardiovasc Drugs 2021; 21:701-710.

Abstract
Dapagliflozin [Farxiga® (USA); Forxiga® (EU)], a sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, was recently approved in the USA and the EU for the treatment of adults with symptomatic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). The cardiovascular (CV) benefits of dapagliflozin were first observed in the DECLARE-TIMI 58 trial, in which dapagliflozin 10 mg/day significantly reduced the risk of CV death or hospitalization for HF in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who had or were at risk for atherosclerotic CV disease. In the subsequent DAPA-HF trial, dapagliflozin 10 mg/day in addition to standard of care was associated with a significantly lower risk of worsening HF or CV death than placebo in patients with HFrEF, regardless of the presence or absence of T2DM. The benefits of dapagliflozin also remained consistent regardless of background HF therapies. Dapagliflozin was generally well tolerated, with an overall safety profile consistent with its known safety profile in other indications. In conclusion, dapagliflozin is an effective and generally well-tolerated treatment that represents a valuable new addition to the options available for symptomatic HFrEF. Heart failure (HF) is a major cause of death and disability. HFrEF occurs when the left ventricular ejection fraction is ≤ 40%. Conventional treatments for HFrEF include angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers, angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors, β-blockers, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, hydralazine/isosorbide dinitrate, and ivabradine. Dapagliflozin [Farxiga® (USA); Forxiga® (EU)] is an SGLT2 inhibitor originally developed for the treatment of T2DM. It was the first SGLT2 inhibitor to be approved for the treatment of adults with symptomatic HFrEF. When added to standard therapy, dapagliflozin significantly reduced the risk of worsening HF or CV death in patients with HFrEF, regardless of whether or not they had T2DM. Moreover, the beneficial effects of dapagliflozin were seen regardless of patients’ usual HF medications. Dapagliflozin was generally well tolerated and is a valuable option for the treatment of symptomatic HFrEF.

Abstract
Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is a clinical condition associated with cardiac contractility impairment. HFrEF is a significant public health issue with a high morbidity and mortality burden. Pathological left ventricular (LV) remodeling and progressive dilatation are hallmarks of HFrEF pathogenesis, ultimately leading to adverse clinical outcomes. Therefore, cardiac remodeling attenuation has become a treatment goal and a standard of care over the last three decades. Guideline-directed medical therapy mainly targeting the sympathetic nervous system and the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) has led to improved survival and a reduction in HF hospitalization in this population. More recently, novel pharmacological therapies targeting other pathways implicated in the pathophysiology of HFrEF have emerged at an exciting rate, with landmark clinical trials demonstrating additive clinical benefits in patients with HFrEF. Among these novel therapies, angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors (ARNI), sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), vericiguat (a novel oral guanylate cyclase stimulator), and omecamtiv mecarbil (a selective cardiac myosin activator) have shown improved clinical benefit when added to the traditional standard-of-care medical therapy in HFrEF. These new comprehensive data have led to a remarkable change in the medical therapy paradigm in the setting of HFrEF. This article will review the pivotal studies involving these novel agents and present a suggestive paradigm of pharmacological therapy representing the 2021 European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines for the treatment of chronic HFrEF.

Abstract
Chronic consumption of a high-fat diet induces obesity and impairs the ultra-structure of organs and tissues. We examined the effect of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor-dapagliflozin on renal and pancreatic injuries in obese condition. Rats were fed a high-fat diet for 16 weeks to induce obesity. After that, dapagliflozin or vildagliptin, 1.0 or 3.0 mg/kg/day, respectively, was administered by oral gavage for 4 weeks. The effects of dapagliflozin on insulin resistance, kidney autophagy, pancreatic oxidative stress, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, inflammation, and apoptosis in high-fat diet-induced obese rats were elucidated. High-fat-diet fed rats demonstrated metabolic abnormalities including increased body weight, visceral fat weight, plasma insulin, plasma cholesterol, homeostasis model assessment (HOMA) index, and TAUCg, indicating the obese-insulin resistant and glucose intolerance conditions. Also, high-fat-diet fed rats exhibited significant pancreatic injury accompanied by decreased kidney autophagy. Dapagliflozin or vildagliptin treatment for 4 weeks ameliorated pancreatic oxidative stress, ER stress, inflammation, and apoptosis and restored kidney autophagy in obese rats. Moreover, the morphology changes of the pancreas and kidney were improved in the treated groups. Interestingly, dapagliflozin showed higher efficacy than vildagliptin in improving body weight, visceral fat weight, plasma cholesterol level, and pancreatic oxidative stress in our model. Taken together, the present study demonstrated that the therapeutic effects of dapagliflozin attenuated pancreatic injury, pancreatic oxidative stress, ER stress, inflammation, apoptosis, and exerted renoprotective effects by restoring autophagic signaling in obese rats.

[PMID: 34209066 PMCID: PMC8309195 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics13070993] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2021] [Revised: 06/25/2021] [Accepted: 06/26/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
The 3D printing techniques have been explored extensively in recent years for pharmaceutical manufacturing and drug delivery applications. The current investigation aims to explore 3D printing for the design and development of a nanomedicine-based oral solid dosage form of a poorly water-soluble drug. A self-nanoemulsifying tablet formulation of dapagliflozin propanediol monohydrate was developed utilizing the semisolid pressure-assisted microsyringe (PAM) extrusion-based 3D printing technique. The developed formulation system consists of two major components (liquid and solid phase), which include oils (caproyl 90, octanoic acid) and co-surfactant (PEG 400) as liquid phase while surfactant (poloxamer 188) and solid matrix (PEG 6000) as solid-phase excipients that ultimately self-nanoemulsify as a drug encapsulated nanoemulsion system on contact with aqueous phase/gastrointestinal fluid. The droplet size distribution of the generated nanoemulsion from a self-nanoemulsifying 3D printed tablet was observed to be 104.7 ± 3.36 nm with polydispersity index 0.063 ± 0.024. The FT-IR analysis of the printed tablet revealed that no drug-excipients interactions were observed. The DSC and X-RD analysis of the printed tablet revealed that the loaded drug is molecularly dispersed in the crystal lattice of the tablet solid matrix and remains solubilized in the liquid phase of the printed tablet. SEM image of the drug-loaded self-nanoemulsifying tablets revealed that dapagliflozin propanediol monohydrate was completely encapsulated in the solid matrix of the printed tablet, which was further confirmed by SEM-EDS analysis. The in vitro dissolution profile of dapagliflozin-loaded self-nanoemulsifying tablet revealed an immediate-release drug profile for all three sizes (8 mm, 10 mm, and 12 mm) tablets, exhibiting >75.0% drug release within 20 min. Thus, this study has emphasized the capability of the PAM-based 3D printing technique to print a self-nanoemulsifying tablet dosage form with an immediate-release drug profile for poorly water-soluble drug.

Abstract
Diabetic nephropathy is the most common cause of end-stage renal disease worldwide. Control of blood glucose and blood pressure (BP) reduces the risk of developing this complication, but once diabetic nephropathy is established, it is then only possible to slow its progression. Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) are a novel class of oral hypoglycemic agents that increase urinary glucose excretion by suppressing glucose reabsorption at the renal proximal tubule. SGLT2is lower glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) without increasing the risk of hypoglycemia, induce weight loss and improve various metabolic parameters including BP, lipid profile, albuminuria and uric acid. Several clinical trials have shown that SGLT2is (empagliflozin, dapagliflozin canagliflozin, and ertugliflozin) improve cardiovascular and renal outcomes and mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes. Effects of SGLT2is on the kidney can be explained by multiple pathways. SGLT2is may improve renal oxygenation and intra-renal inflammation thereby slowing the progression of kidney function decline. Additionally, SGLT2is are associated with a reduction in glomerular hyperfiltration, an effect which is mediated by the increase in natriuresis, the re-activation of tubule-glomerular feedback and independent of glycemic control. In this review, we will focus on renal results of major cardiovascular and renal outcome trials and we will describe direct and indirect mechanisms through which SGLT2is confer renal protection.

Diabetes Res Clin Pract 2021; 175:108843. [PMID: 33933498 DOI: 10.1016/j.diabres.2021.108843] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2021] [Revised: 03/22/2021] [Accepted: 04/27/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
AIM To assess the efficacy and tolerability of adjunct therapy with a sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor, dapagliflozin, compared with insulin escalation for patients with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes on current insulin therapy. METHODS A 12-month retrospective case-control study of patients with glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) > 7% on insulin therapy. The study group received add-on therapy with dapagliflozin (10 mg once daily); the control group received titrated increases of their existing insulin dose by a mean of 21.6% from baseline. The primary endpoint was the change in HbA1c after 12 months. Secondary outcomes included changes in fasting plasma glucose, postprandial 2-h glucose levels, insulin requirements, and body weight. RESULTS After 12 months, the reduction in HbA1c was significantly greater in the dapagliflozin group than in the control group (from 8.9 ± 1.2% to 8.0 ± 1.0% vs 9.1 ± 1.2% to 8.7 ± 1.5%, respectively). Results for fasting plasma glucose and postprandial 2-h glucose were similar. Dapagliflozin therapy decreased systolic blood pressure (-4.7 mmHg) and body weight (-1.4 kg) significantly, whereas body weight increased by 0.6 kg in the control group. The dapagliflozin group showed significantly fewer hypoglycemic events than the control group (18.5% vs 32.6%, respectively). Daily insulin dose increased by 5.4 ± 6.1 U (21.6%) in the control group but decreased by 1.9 ± 5.3 U (-4.5%) in the dapagliflozin group (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION As an adjunct to insulin therapy, dapagliflozin therapy significantly improved glycemic control, with the clinical advantages of weight loss, insulin sparing, and less hypoglycemia.

Abstract
Background Mitral regurgitation (MR) is a major contributor for heart failure (HF) and atrial fibrillation. Despite the advancement of MR surgeries, an effective medical therapy to mitigate MR progression is lacking. Sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, a new class of antidiabetic drugs, has shown measurable benefits in reduction of HF hospitalization and cardiovascular mortality but the mechanism is unclear. We hypothesized that dapagliflozin (DAPA), a sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor, can improve cardiac hemodynamics in MR‐induced HF. Methods and Results Using a novel, mini‐invasive technique, we established a MR model in rats, in which MR induced left heart dilatation and functional decline. Half of the rats were randomized to be administered with DAPA at 10 mg/kg per day for 6 weeks. After evaluation of electrocardiography and echocardiography, hemodynamic studies were performed, followed by postmortem tissue analyses. Results showed that DAPA partially rescued MR‐induced impairment including partial restoration of left ventricular ejection fraction and end‐systolic pressure volume relationship. Despite no significant changes in electrocardiography at rest, rats treated with DAPA exhibited lower inducibility and decreased duration of pacing‐induced atrial fibrillation. DAPA also significantly attenuated cardiac fibrosis, cardiac expression of apoptosis, and endoplasmic reticulum stress‐associated proteins. Conclusions DAPA was able to suppress cardiac fibrosis and endoplasmic reticulum stress and improve hemodynamics in an MR‐induced HF rat model. The demonstrated DAPA effect on the heart and its association with key molecular contributors in eliciting its cardio‐protective function, provides a plausible point of DAPA as a potential strategy for MR‐induced HF.

Abstract
Elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) in type 2 diabetes cause cellular damage in many organs. Recently, the new class of glucose-lowering agents, SGLT-2 inhibitors, have been shown to reduce the risk of developing diabetic complications; however, the mechanisms of such beneficial effect are largely unknown. Here we aimed to investigate the effects of dapagliflozin on cell proliferation and cell death under oxidative stress conditions and explore its underlying mechanisms. Human proximal tubular cells (HK-2) were used. Cell growth and death were monitored by cell counting, water-soluble tetrazolium-1 (WST-1) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) assays, and flow cytometry. The cytosolic and mitochondrial (ROS) production was measured using fluorescent probes (H2DCFDA and MitoSOX) under normal and oxidative stress conditions mimicked by addition of H2O2. Intracellular Ca2+ dynamics was monitored by FlexStation 3 using cell-permeable Ca2+ dye Fura-PE3/AM. Dapagliflozin (0.1–10 μM) had no effect on HK-2 cell proliferation under normal conditions, but an inhibitory effect was seen at an extreme high concentration (100 μM). However, dapagliflozin at 0.1 to 5 μM showed remarkable protective effects against H2O2-induced cell injury via increasing the viable cell number at phase G0/G1. The elevated cytosolic and mitochondrial ROS under oxidative stress was significantly decreased by dapagliflozin. Dapagliflozin increased the basal intracellular [Ca2+]i in proximal tubular cells, but did not affect calcium release from endoplasmic reticulum and store-operated Ca2+ entry. The H2O2-sensitive TRPM2 channel seemed to be involved in the Ca2+ dynamics regulated by dapagliflozin. However, dapagliflozin had no direct effects on ORAI1, ORAI3, TRPC4 and TRPC5 channels. Our results suggest that dapagliflozin shows anti-oxidative properties by reducing cytosolic and mitochondrial ROS production and altering Ca2+ dynamics, and thus exerts its protective effects against cell damage under oxidative stress environment.

Abstract
This analysis reports a quantitative modeling and simulation approach for oral dapagliflozin, a primarily uridine diphosphate-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT)-metabolized human sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 selective inhibitor. A mechanistic dapagliflozin physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model was developed using in vitro metabolism and clinical pharmacokinetic (PK) data and verified for context of use (e.g., exposure predictions in pediatric subjects aged 1 month to 18 years). Dapagliflozin exposure is challenging to predict in pediatric populations owing to differences in UGT1A9 ontogeny maturation and paucity of clinical PK data in younger age groups. Based on the exposure-response relationship of dapagliflozin, twofold acceptance criteria were applied between model-predicted and observed drug exposures and PK parameters (area under the curve and maximum drug concentration) in various scenarios, including monotherapy in healthy adults (single/multiple dose), monotherapy in hepatically or renally impaired patients, and drug-drug interactions with UGT1A9 modulators, such as mefenamic acid and rifampin. The PBPK model captured the observed exposure within twofold of the observed monotherapy data in adults and adolescents and in special population. As a guide to determining dosing regimens in pediatric studies, the verified PBPK model, along with UGT enzyme ontogeny maturation understanding, was used for predictions of dapagliflozin monotherapy exposures in pediatric subjects aged 1 month to 18 years that best matched exposure in adult patients with a 10-mg single dose of dapagliflozin.

Abstract
PURPOSE Although there are many different methods of treating type 2 diabetes (T2D), it is still difficult to draw coincident conclusions concerning the efficacy and safety of different classes of new drugs, and the recommendation level of them has still kept uncertain as second anti-diabetic agents. Therefore, the aim of this study was to summarize evidence on the efficacy and safety of DPP-4is, GLP-1RAs and SGLT-2is as monotherapy or add-on to metformin (Met) for treatment of T2D. MATERIALS AND METHODS We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane library and ClinicalTrials.gov for relevant articles in keeping with established methods using terms associated with anti-diabetic agents up to February, 2020, with no start date restriction. Weighted mean difference and risk ratios with 95% confidence intervals were calculated within traditional and network meta-analysis. Primary outcomes were the mean change in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), fasting plasma glucose (FPG) change and the frequency of hypoglycemic events from baseline after 12 weeks of treatment. RESULTS In total, 64 eligible studies comprising 37,780 patients and 7 treatment strategies were included. The results of primary outcomes showed that GLP-1RAs were significantly more effective than DPP-4is or SGLT-2is in reducing HbA1c when add-on to Met. For FPG, both GLP-1RAs and SGLT-2is significantly reduced FPG compared with DPP-4is whether add-on to Met or not. For hypoglycemia, monotherapy has a lower risk than combination therapy except for SGLT-2is. Ranking probability analysis indicated that GLP-1RAs and SGLT-2is, respectively, reduced HbA1c and FPG most when add-on to Met. Meanwhile, GLP-1RAs took the lowest risk to induce the hypoglycemia, whereas GLP-1RAs plus Met the highest. CONCLUSIONS Both GLP-1RAs and SGLT-2is have their own advantages in efficacy and safety. Monotherapy is beneficial for reducing the risk of hypoglycemia. The recommendation should be a patient-centered approach when selecting treatment choices.

Abstract
Diabetes is a chronic progressive metabolic disease caused by insulin deficiency or insulin resistance. In spite of the availability of several antihyperglycaemics, there is a need for the development of safer antidiabetic drugs due to their undesirable effects. Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors are a class of antidiabetics, which hinder the reabsorption of glucose in the kidneys, causing excretion of glucose via urine. Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors are a well-tolerated class with no significant adverse effects and are found to be favorable in certain conditions, which may be rudimentary to cardiovascular and renal diseases. The current advancements in their design and development, their mechanism of action, structure–activity relationship, synthesis and in silico development along with their auxiliary roles have been extensively reviewed.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a prevalent disease with the severe clinical implications including myocardial infarction, stroke, and kidney disease. Therapies focusing on glycemic control in T2DM such as biguanides, sulfonylureas, thiazolidinediones, and insulin-based regimens have largely failed to substantially improve cardiovascular and kidney outcomes. We review the recent findings on sodium-glucose co-transporter type 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors which have shown to have beneficial cardiovascular and kidney-related effects. RECENT FINDINGS SGLT2 inhibitors are a new class of diabetic medications that reduce the absorption of glucose in the kidney, decrease proteinuria, control blood pressure, and are associated with weight loss. SGLT2 inhibitors provide complementary therapy independent of insulin secretion or action with proved glucose-lowering effects. Recent placebo-controlled clinical trials have demonstrated that these medications can decrease cardiovascular death, progression of kidney disease, and all-cause mortality in diabetic and non-diabetic patients. Interestingly, SGT2 inhibitors such as dapagliflozin have also proven to decrease heart failure admissions and cardiovascular endpoints in non-diabetic patients, suggesting pleiotropic effects. The exact mechanisms responsible for reductions in atherosclerotic heart disease, need for kidney replacement therapy, and progressive kidney disease remain unknown. While regulation of glomerular hyperfiltration, albuminuria, and natriuresis may be part of the explanation, it is possible that complex cellular effects including energy balance optimization, downregulation of oxidative stress, and modulation of pro-inflammatory signaling pathways are associated with favorable outcomes observed in large clinical studies. CONCLUSION SGLT2 inhibitors are novel antidiabetic medications with immense utility in the management of patients with T2DM. Furthermore, SGLT2 inhibitors have demonstrated to reduce the progression to advanced forms of kidney disease and its associated complications. These medications should be front and center in the management of patients with diabetic kidney disease with and without chronic kidney disease as they confer protection against cardiovascular/renal death and improve all-cause mortality. Future studies should evaluate the benefits and implications of early initiation of SGLT2 inhibitors, as well as the long-term effects of this therapy.

Abstract
Introduction: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a major health problem in Egypt with a high impact on morbidity, mortality, and healthcare resources. This study evaluated the budget impact and the long-term consequences of dapagliflozin versus other conventional medications, as monotherapy, from both the societal and health insurance perspectives in Egypt.Methods: A static budget impact model was developed to estimate the financial consequences of adopting dapagliflozin on the healthcare payer budget. We measured the direct medical costs of dapagliflozin (new scenario) as monotherapy, compared to metformin, insulin, sulphonylurea, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, thiazolidinedione, and repaglinide (old scenarios) over a time horizon of 3 years. Myocardial infarction (MI), ischemic stroke, hospitalization for heart failure (HHF), and initiation of renal replacement therapy (RRT) rates were captured from DECLARE TIMI 58 trial. One-way sensitivity analyses were conducted.Results: The budget impact model estimated 2,053,908 patients eligible for treatment with dapagliflozin from a societal perspective and 1,207,698 patients from the health insurance (HI) perspective. The new scenario allows for an initial savings of EGP121 million in the first year, which increased to EGP243 and EGP365 million in the second and third years, respectively. The total cumulative savings from a societal perspective were estimated at EGP731 million. Dapagliflozin allows for savings of EGP71, EGP143, and EGP215 million in the first, second and third years respectively, from the HI perspective, with total cumulative savings of EGP430 million over the 3 years.Conclusion: Treating T2DM patients using dapagliflozin instead of conventional medications, maximizes patients' benefits and decreases total costs due to drug cost offsets from fewer cardiovascular and renal events. The adoption of dapagliflozin is a budget-saving treatment option, resulting in substantial population-level health gains due to reduced event rate and cost savings from the perspective of the national healthcare system.

Abstract
Site selectivity represents a key challenge for non-directed C-H functionalization, even when the C-H bond is intrinsically reactive. Here, we report a copper-catalyzed method for benzylic C-H azidation of diverse molecules. Experimental and density functional theory studies suggest the benzyl radical reacts with a CuII-azide species via a radical-polar crossover pathway. Comparison of this method with other C-H azidation methods highlights its unique site selectivity, and conversions of the benzyl azide products into amine, triazole, tetrazole, and pyrrole functional groups highlight the broad utility of this method for target molecule synthesis and medicinal chemistry.

Abstract
Dapagliflozin (DPG) is a novel drug from class of sodium glucose co-transporter 2 (SGL-2) inhibitors which has been evolved as profound treatment option for the type-2diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Considering the severity of the disease the drug is of crucial significance for the therapy and associated research. As a pharmaceutical dosage form DPG has immense importance as an individual drug and with other antidiabetic drugs as combinations. The drugs existing in combination with DPG are Metformin (MET) and Saxagliptin (SXG). The existence of the Dapagliflozin in combinations further created more interest in reviewing its pharmaceutical, analytical and bio-analytical profile. Such estimations are always in need of precise pharmacological and physicochemical information; hence authors have presented it beforehand. Authors hereby wish to present an essential update pertaining to emergence of gliflozins and DPG. The article further presents a simultaneous and comparative assessment of the analytical investigations published in literature for pharmaceutical estimation to assist future analysis. The thorough literature searches revealed fifty three research papers in total till date. A comprehensive presentation of typical; hyphenated and unique methods used for analysis are outlined effectively. The percentile utilization of analytical approaches since appearance of first publication in 2010 is investigated to report trend in determination. The present review explores the pharmaceutical estimation of DPG to scientifically potentiate analytical research and therapeutic future of DPG as a novel SGL-2 Inhibitor antidiabetic.

Abstract
Oral dapagliflozin (Edistride®, Forxiga®) is approved in the EU at a dosage of 5 mg/day as an adjunct to insulin in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and a body mass index (BMI) of ≥ 27 kg/m2, when insulin alone does not provide adequate glycaemic control despite optimal insulin therapy. As a highly selective SGLT2 inhibitor, dapagliflozin decreases plasma glucose levels independently of insulin action and enables glycaemic control improvement without increasing the risks associated with intensive insulin therapy. In the phase III DEPICT-1 and -2 trials, dapagliflozin 5 mg/day as an adjunct to insulin improved glycaemic control and reduced total daily insulin dose and bodyweight relative to placebo in adults with inadequately controlled T1D, including in patients with a BMI of ≥ 27 kg/m2, over 24 weeks of treatment. In extensions of these trials, these improvements were maintained up to 52 weeks. Dapagliflozin was generally well tolerated with a manageable safety profile and a hypoglycaemia profile generally similar to placebo. The incidence of diabetic ketoacidosis with dapagliflozin in patients with a BMI ≥ 27 kg/m2 was less than half that of the overall population who received dapagliflozin. Dapagliflozin is the first SGLT2 inhibitor to be approved for use in T1D and, while further clinical experience in T1D is required to more definitively establish its efficacy and safety profile, it provides a promising adjunctive treatment option for adults with T1D and a BMI of ≥ 27 kg/m2, when insulin alone does not provide adequate glycaemic control despite optimal insulin therapy.

Abstract
Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2is) have been shown to mitigate the risks of cardiovascular (CV) and renal complications in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and CV risk factors or CV disease (CVD). In CV outcomes trials (CVOTs) of patients with T2D and established CVD or multiple CV risk factors, empagliflozin and canagliflozin were associated with significant reductions in the risks of major adverse CV events (MACE), hospitalization for heart failure (HF) and kidney disease progression. In the DECLARE-TIMI 58 study, in which the majority of patients did not have established CVD, dapagliflozin was associated with significant reductions in the composite end point of CV death or hospitalization for HF and was noninferior to placebo with regard to MACE; although patients had relatively good renal function, dapagliflozin also showed renal benefits similar to those seen with empagliflozin and canagliflozin. This article reviews the increased risk of CVD and renal disease in patients with T2D and discusses the potential mechanisms of the cardioprotective and renoprotective effects of SGLT-2i therapy. The observed improvements in CV and renal outcomes with SGLT-2is in CVOTs suggest a class effect in this patient population and have influenced treatment guidelines for the way add-on therapy to metformin is initiated in patients with T2D and high CV risk. The overall cardioprotective and renoprotective effects of SGLT-2is in patients with T2D and high CV risk are most likely attributable to multiple mechanisms, including cardiac, haemodynamic, metabolic, anti-inflammatory and renal effects.

Abstract
Dapagliflozin (Forxiga®) is a highly potent, reversible and selective sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor indicated worldwide for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2D). In the EU, oral dapagliflozin once daily is approved for use as monotherapy (in patients who are intolerant of metformin) and as add-on combination therapy (with other glucose-lowering agents, including insulin) for T2D when diet and exercise alone do not provide adequate glycaemic control. In numerous well-designed clinical studies and their extensions, dapagliflozin as monotherapy and combination therapy with other antihyperglycaemic agents provided effective glycaemic control and reduced bodyweight and blood pressure (BP) across a broad spectrum of patients. Dapagliflozin reduced the rate of cardiovascular (CV) death or hospitalization for heart failure (HHF), did not adversely affect major adverse CV events (MACE) and possibly reduced progression of renal disease relative to placebo in patients with established atherosclerotic CV disease (CVD) or multiple risk factors for CVD. Dapagliflozin was generally well tolerated, with a low risk of hypoglycaemia; diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), although rare, and genital infections were more common with dapagliflozin than placebo. Given its antihyperglycaemic, cardioprotective and possibly renoprotective properties and generally favourable tolerability profile, dapagliflozin provides an important option for the management of a broad patient population, regardless of the history of CVD.

Abstract
In patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), microvascular changes in the kidney often result in diabetic kidney disease (DKD), the progression of which is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular (CV) and all-cause mortality. Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2is) are a newer class of oral glucose-lowering therapies that were associated with significant reductions in the risk of major adverse CV events, CV death, and hospitalization for heart failure compared with placebo in CV outcomes trials (CVOTs) of patients with T2D and established CV disease or varying levels of CV risk. In addition, SGLT-2is reduced the risks of clinically relevant renal outcomes in these large randomized studies, indicating the potential for renoprotective effects in patients with T2D and DKD. This review discussed the non-glycemic effects of SGLT-2is in patients with T2D and renal impairment, including reductions in systolic and diastolic blood pressure, decreases in albuminuria and plasma uric acid, changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate, and minimal changes in electrolytes. Potential mechanisms for the renoprotective effects of SGLT-2is observed in CVOTs were considered, including the likely incremental benefits of SGLT-2is when added to renin-aldosterone-angiotensin system inhibitors (RAASis). The possibility of extending the use of SGLT-2is to patients with non-DKD was also discussed. Although the exact mechanisms by which SGLT-2is improve renal outcomes are not fully understood, they are likely to be multifactorial and additive when these drugs are used in combination with RAASis in patients with DKD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have been shown to reduce the risk of incident heart failure hospitalization in individuals with type 2 diabetes who have, or are at high risk of, cardiovascular disease. Most patients in these trials did not have heart failure at baseline and the effect of SGLT2 inhibitors on outcomes in individuals with established heart failure (with or without diabetes) is unknown. DESIGN AND METHODS The Dapagliflozin And Prevention of Adverse-outcomes in Heart Failure trial (DAPA-HF) is an international, multicentre, parallel group, randomized, double-blind, study in patients with chronic heart failure, evaluating the effect of dapagliflozin 10 mg, compared with placebo, given once daily, in addition to standard care, on the primary composite outcome of a worsening heart failure event (hospitalization or equivalent event, i.e. an urgent heart failure visit) or cardiovascular death. Patients with and without diabetes are eligible and must have a left ventricular ejection fraction ≤ 40%, a moderately elevated N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide level, and an estimated glomerular filtration rate ≥ 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 . The trial is event-driven, with a target of 844 primary outcomes. Secondary outcomes include the composite of total heart failure hospitalizations (including repeat episodes), and cardiovascular death and patient-reported outcomes. A total of 4744 patients have been randomized. CONCLUSIONS DAPA-HF will determine the efficacy and safety of the SGLT2 inhibitor dapagliflozin, added to conventional therapy, in a broad spectrum of patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Sodium-glucose cotransporter type 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) are recommended after metformin for a large spectrum of patients with type 2 diabetes, because of a favorable benefit/risk profile despite a variety of adverse events. AREAS COVERED This narrative review discusses the safety profile of SGLT2is: initial concerns (cardiovascular safety, acute renal failure, hypoglycemia, urinary and genital infections, volume depletion, bladder cancer), further concerns (euglycemic ketoacidosis, bone fractures) and more recent concerns (lower limb amputation, Fournier's gangrene). EXPERT OPINION Overall, the safety profile of SGLT2is is good. The only increased adverse event that was consistently reported in clinical trials and observational studies is genital mycotic infections, with only a borderline increase in urinary tract infections. Among clinical trials, only the CANVAS program reported an unexpected increase in bone fractures and peripheral amputations. A variety of rare adverse events have been described as case reports, including ketoacidosis, amputations and Fournier gangrene, which led to specific warnings by regulatory agencies. Identifying predisposing patient's characteristics and/or precipitating clinical conditions would help prevent the most severe complications. These adverse events should not mask the overall cardiovascular and renal benefit of SGLT2is, especially in patients with type 2 diabetes at high cardiovascular risk.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The cardiovascular safety profile of dapagliflozin, a selective inhibitor of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 that promotes glucosuria in patients with type 2 diabetes, is undefined. METHODS We randomly assigned patients with type 2 diabetes who had or were at risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease to receive either dapagliflozin or placebo. The primary safety outcome was a composite of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), defined as cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, or ischemic stroke. The primary efficacy outcomes were MACE and a composite of cardiovascular death or hospitalization for heart failure. Secondary efficacy outcomes were a renal composite (≥40% decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate to <60 ml per minute per 1.73 m2 of body-surface area, new end-stage renal disease, or death from renal or cardiovascular causes) and death from any cause. RESULTS We evaluated 17,160 patients, including 10,186 without atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, who were followed for a median of 4.2 years. In the primary safety outcome analysis, dapagliflozin met the prespecified criterion for noninferiority to placebo with respect to MACE (upper boundary of the 95% confidence interval [CI], <1.3; P<0.001 for noninferiority). In the two primary efficacy analyses, dapagliflozin did not result in a lower rate of MACE (8.8% in the dapagliflozin group and 9.4% in the placebo group; hazard ratio, 0.93; 95% CI, 0.84 to 1.03; P=0.17) but did result in a lower rate of cardiovascular death or hospitalization for heart failure (4.9% vs. 5.8%; hazard ratio, 0.83; 95% CI, 0.73 to 0.95; P=0.005), which reflected a lower rate of hospitalization for heart failure (hazard ratio, 0.73; 95% CI, 0.61 to 0.88); there was no between-group difference in cardiovascular death (hazard ratio, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.82 to 1.17). A renal event occurred in 4.3% in the dapagliflozin group and in 5.6% in the placebo group (hazard ratio, 0.76; 95% CI, 0.67 to 0.87), and death from any cause occurred in 6.2% and 6.6%, respectively (hazard ratio, 0.93; 95% CI, 0.82 to 1.04). Diabetic ketoacidosis was more common with dapagliflozin than with placebo (0.3% vs. 0.1%, P=0.02), as was the rate of genital infections that led to discontinuation of the regimen or that were considered to be serious adverse events (0.9% vs. 0.1%, P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS In patients with type 2 diabetes who had or were at risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, treatment with dapagliflozin did not result in a higher or lower rate of MACE than placebo but did result in a lower rate of cardiovascular death or hospitalization for heart failure, a finding that reflects a lower rate of hospitalization for heart failure.

Dapagliflozin Attenuates Renal Tubulointerstitial Fibrosis Associated With Type 1 Diabetes by Regulating STAT1/TGFβ1 Signaling. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2019; 10:441. [PMID: 31333586 PMCID: PMC6616082 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2019.00441] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2018] [Accepted: 06/18/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Tubulointerstitial fibrosis (TIF) plays an important role in the progression of renal fibrosis in diabetic nephropathy (DN). Accumulating evidence supports a crucial inhibitory effect of dapagliflozin, a SGLT2 inhibitor, on TIF, but the underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown. This study aimed to shed light on the efficacy of dapagliflozin in reducing TIF as well as its possible impact on renal function. TIF in human kidney biopsies obtained from patients with DN was quantified by histopathological staining. In vitro, HK-2 cells were incubated in high glucose with dapagliflozin or fludarabine, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) was determined. In vivo experiments were performed in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced type 1 diabetic mice treated with dapagliflozin by gavage for 16 weeks, after which specific functional characteristics and TIF were analyzed. In both DN patients and diabetic mice, fibronectin and Col IV, as well as STAT1 protein in the kidneys were increased as compared with controls. Dapagliflozin significantly decreased blood glucose, and renal STAT1 and TGF-β1 expression in mice. Furthermore, dapagliflozin improved renal function, and attenuated diabetes-induced TIF. In HK-2 cells, dapagliflozin, and fludarabine directly decreased aberrant STAT1 expression and reversed high glucose-induced downregulation of E-cadherin and α-SMA induction. Thus, the results demonstrate that dapagliflozin not only improves hyperglycemia but also slows down the progression of diabetes-associated renal TIF by improving hyperglycemia-induced activation of the STAT1/TGF-β1 pathway.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This analysis compared the efficacy and safety of the sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, dapagliflozin, and the dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) inhibitor, saxagliptin, both added on to metformin. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a post-hoc analysis from a double-blind, randomized, 24-week clinical trial (NCT01606007) of patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) inadequately controlled with metformin. We compared the dapagliflozin 10 mg (n = 179) and saxagliptin 5 mg (n = 176) treatment arms. RESULTS Dapagliflozin showed significantly greater mean reductions versus saxagliptin in HbA1c (difference versus saxagliptin [95% CI]: -0.32% [-0.54, -0.10]; p < 0.005), fasting plasma glucose (-0.98 [-1.42, -0.54] mmol/L; p < 0.0001), body weight (-2.39 [-3.08, -1.71] kg; p < 0.0001) and systolic blood pressure (SBP) (-3.89 [-6.15, -1.63] mmHg; p < 0.001). More dapagliflozintreated than saxagliptin-treated patients achieved the composite endpoint of HbA1c reduction ≥ 0.5%, weight loss ≥ 2 kg, SBP reduction ≥ 2 mmHg and no major/minor hypoglycemia (24% versus 7%). No major events of hypoglycemia were reported. More patients on dapagliflozin (6%) versus saxagliptin (0.6%) experienced genital infections. CONCLUSION Dapagliflozin demonstrated greater glycemic efficacy than saxagliptin with additional benefits on weight and SBP, and the safety profile was consistent with previous studies.

Abstract
The antidiabetic effect of empagliflozin in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus has been explored in several trials. We performed this meta-analysis determining the effects of empagliflozin on blood pressure, uric acid, estimated glomerular filtration rate, blood lipids, blood glucose, and body weight in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. We searched three electronic databases (Pubmed, Web of Science, and Cochrane Central) for all published articles evaluating the effects of empagliflozin on blood glucose or blood pressure in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Total 5781 patients were included in 12 randomized controlled trials with a follow-up of 28 ± 22 weeks. Empagliflozin 10 or 25 mg reduced systolic and diastolic blood pressure, uric acid, hemoglobin A1c, fasting plasma glucose, and body weight in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (all p < 0.001). There were no differences for changes of estimated glomerular filtration rate between empagliflozin 10 or 25 mg and placebo in these patients (all p > 0.05). In conclusion, empagliflozin reduces systolic and diastolic blood pressure, uric acid, hemoglobin A1c, fasting plasma glucose, and body weight. These data suggest the beneficial effects of empagliflozin on these cardiovascular risk factors in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dapagliflozin is a sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitor that reduces blood glucose in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) by promoting glycosuria via inhibiting urinary glucose reabsorption. In addition to improving blood glucose control, treatment with dapagliflozin results in glucose-induced osmotic diuresis, weight loss, and blood pressure lowering. Previous trials of SGLT-2 inhibitors showed reductions in cardiovascular (CV) events, including CV death and hospitalization for heart failure, and ischemic events in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS DECLARE-TIMI 58 (NCT01730534) is a phase 3b randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial designed to evaluate the CV safety and efficacy of dapagliflozin that has completed randomization of 17,160 patients with T2DM and a history of either established ASCVD (n=6,971) or multiple risk factors for ASCVD (n=10,189). Patients were randomized in a 1:1 fashion to dapagliflozin 10 mg or matching placebo. The primary safety outcome is the time to the first event of the composite of CV death, myocardial infarction, or ischemic stroke (major adverse cardiovascular events; MACEs). The co-primary efficacy outcomes are the composite of CV death, myocardial infarction, or ischemic stroke and the composite of CV death or hospitalization for heart failure. This event-driven trial will continue until at least 1,390 subjects have a MACE outcome, thereby providing >99% power to test for the primary outcome of safety of dapagliflozin measured by rejecting the hypothesis that the upper bound of the CI >1.3 for the primary outcome of MACE, as well as 85% power to detect a 15% relative risk reduction in MACE and an estimated 87% power to detect a 20% reduction in the composite of CV death or hospitalization for heart failure at a 1-sided α level of .0231. CONCLUSION The DECLARE-TIMI 58 trial is testing the hypotheses that dapagliflozin is safe (does not increase) and may reduce the occurrence of major CV events. DECLARE-TIMI 58 is the largest study to address this question with an SGLT-2 inhibitor in patients with T2DM and with established CV disease and without CV disease but with multiple risk factors.

Abstract
SGLT2 inhibitors were promising and novel antidiabetic drugs which suppressed glucose reabsorption and increased urinary glucose exertion. This review paper are aimed to summarize the recent progress of SGLT2 inhibitors during the last 5 years. This paper first summarizes the information of SGLT2 inhibitors, including mechanism, evolution and then focuses on the recent efforts on structure-activity relationships and structural optimization of SGLT2 inhibitors. Finally, the corresponding clinical therapeutic efficacy and adverse drug reaction in patients with Type 2 diabetes are discussed in detail.

Abstract
PURPOSE We assessed whether (1) dapagliflozin (Dapa, an SGLT2-inhibitor) attenuates the deterioration of heart function Nlrp3 and inflammasome activation in diabetic mice. (2) The effects can be augmented with saxagliptin (Saxa), a DDP4-inhibitor. (3) Dapa effect is possibly SGLT2-independent on cardiofibroblasts in vitro. METHODS Type 2 diabetic (BTBR ob/ob) and wild-type (WT) mice received vehicle, Dapa, or Dapa+Saxa for 8 weeks. Glucose tolerance test and echocardiogram were performed. Cardiofibroblasts from WT and BTBR hearts were incubated with Dapa and exposed to LPS. RESULTS Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was 81 ± 1% in the WT and 53 ± 1% in the T2D-cont mice. Dapa and Dapa+Saxa improved LVEF to 68 ± 1 and 74.6 ± 1% in the BTBR mice (p < 0.001). The mRNA levels of NALP3, ASC, IL-1β, IL-6, caspase-1, and TNFα were significantly higher in the BTBR compared to the WT hearts; and Dapa and Dapa+Saxa significantly attenuated these levels. Likewise, protein levels of NLRP3, TNFα, and caspase-1 were higher in the BTBR compared to the WT hearts and Dapa, and to a greater extent Dapa+Saxa, attenuated the increase in the BTBR mice. Collagen-1 and collagen-3 mRNA levels significantly increased in the BTBR mice and these increases were attenuated by Dapa and Dapa+Saxa. P-AMPK/total-AMPK ratio was significantly lower in the BTBR mice than in the WT mice. Dapa and Dapa+Saxa equally increased the ratio in the BTBR mice. This in vitro study showed that NALP3, ASC, IL-1β, and caspase-1 mRNA levels were higher in the BTBR cardiofibroblasts and attenuated with Dapa. The effect was AMPK-dependent and SGLT1-independent. CONCLUSIONS Dapa attenuated the activation of the inflammasome, fibrosis, and deterioration of LVEF in BTBR mice. The anti-inflammatory, anti-fibrotic effects are likely SGLT2- and glucose-lowering-independent, as they were replicated in the in vitro model. The effects on remodeling were augmented when Saxa was added to Dapa. Yet, adding Saxa to Dapa did not result in a greater effect on myocardial fibrosis and collagen levels.
