Background: The DAPA-CKD trial demonstrated that  Sodium-glucose-co-transporter-type-2-inhibitor (SGLT2i), dapagliflozin significantly reduced risk of kidney failure, and prolonged survival in participants with CKD with/without T2DM. The DAPA-CKD trial enrolled patients with eGFR 25-75 ml/min/1.73m2. Little is known about the efficacy and safety of SGLT2i in patients with eGFR <30 ml/min/1.73m2. We compared effects of dapagliflozin on major kidney and cardiovascular outcomes in patients with  eGFR >< 30 ml/min/1.73m2.

Methods: Patients with CKD, eGFR of 25-75 ml/min/1.73m2 and UACR 200-5000 mg/g, were randomized to dapagliflozin (10 mg/OD) or placebo. The primary composite endpoint was: sustained decline in eGFR ≥50%, ESKD, kidney or cardiovascular death. Secondary outcomes were:kidney composite ( primary endpoint, without cardiovascular death), composite of cardiovascular death or hHF, and death from any cause. Subgroup analyses were performed according to baseline eGFR (<30 &≥30 ml/min/1.73m2).

Results:Of 4304 patients enrolled, 624 participants had eGFR <30 and 3680 had eGFR ≥30 ml/min/1.73m2 at baseline. Patients with eGFR <30 ml/min/1.73m2 randomized to dapagliflozin (n=293) experienced 27% (95% CI:–2,47) reduction in the primary composite endpoint, 29% (–2, 51), 17% (–53, 55), and 32% (–21, 61) reductions in kidney, cardiovascular and mortality endpoints, respectively, vs placebo (n=331). Interaction p-values between  eGFR <30 vs  ≥30 ml/min/1.73m2 for these endpoints were 0.22, 0.13, 0.63, and 0.95, respectively. In patients with  eGFR <30 ml/min/1.73m2, eGFR slope declined by 2.15 and 3.38 mL/min/1.73m2 /year in dapagliflozin and placebo groups, respectively. Rates of serious adverse events (SAE) and AE of special interest were similar with dapagliflozin or placebo.

Conclusion: Patients with eGFR <30 ml/min/1.73m2, with and without T2DM, dapagliflozin can reduce major kidney and cardiovascular events and attenuate progressive eGFR loss.
