Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Incretin therapy and sodium-glucose- transporter2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are a treatment for type 2 diabetes (T2DM) affected by heart failure (HF) and treated with cardiac resynchromization therapy (CRT). In this study the investigators will recruit T2DM patients affected by HF with depressed ejection fraction and treated by CRT. These patients will randomly be treated by incretin v/s SGLT2i vs combined therapy with incretin+SGLT2i (and added to conventional hypoglicemic drugs). In these patients investigators will report at follow up CRT-d responders rate, mortality, and hospital admission for HF worsening. Combined therapy with incretin and SGLT2i may reduce hospital admissions for HF in T2DM v/s incretin and/or SGLT2i therapy (added to conventional hypoglicemic drugs).

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

incretin arm

T2DM with HF treated by CRTd participants will be assigned prospectively to an intervention (incretin therapy plus conventional hypoglycemic drug therapy) according to study protocol to evaluate the effect of the drug on cardiac deaths, all cause deaths, and hospital admission for heart failure.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Incretin Effect

Intervention Type DRUG

The patients will receive incretins therapy.

Cardiac Resynchronization therapy defibrillator device

Intervention Type DEVICE

The patients will receive a Cardiac Resynchronization therapy defibrillator device

conventional hypoglycemic drug arm

T2DM with HF treated by CRTd participants will be assigned prospectively to SGLT2i therapy (plus conventional hypoglycemic drug therapy) according to study protocol to evaluate the effect of the drug on cardiac deaths, all cause deaths, and hospital admission for heart failure.

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Cardiac Resynchronization therapy defibrillator device

Intervention Type DEVICE

The patients will receive a Cardiac Resynchronization therapy defibrillator device

Incretin added to SGLT2i

T2DM with HF treated by CRTd participants will be assigned prospectively to SGLT2i added to incretin therapy (plus conventional hypoglycemic drug therapy) according to study protocol to evaluate the effect of the drug on cardiac deaths, all cause deaths, and hospital admission for heart failure.
