Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The admission blood glucose is elevated in approximately one-half of ADHF hospitalizations. We recently demonstrated the admission blood glucose was within 50mg/dl of the chronic average blood glucose in 66% of patients with diabetes admitted with ADHF. The median (IQR) admission blood glucose change from the chronic blood glucose was only -7 (-29, 26) mg/dl. Thus, the acute glucose in patients with T2DM presenting with acute heart failure is most often related to poor chronic glucose control suggesting that these patients would benefit from attempts to initiate therapies to improve chronic glucose control while in the hospital.
No new therapies have been introduced in the United States for ADHF in several decades. Natriuretic peptides such as nesiritide and ularitide have failed to improve outcomes in either the chronic or acute heart failure patients. Diuretic resistance and hyperglycemia are common problems in ADHF admissions and represent a therapeutic opportunity for new therapies.
The sodium-glucose cotransporter-2(SGLT2) inhibitors, now approved for the anti-hyperglycemic therapies also have an osmotic diuretic and natriuretic effect. In the chronic setting SGLT2 inhibitors reduce weight with modest decrements in systolic and diastolic blood pressure with a marked drop in albuminuria and a small drop in estimated GFR (-5 mL min-1.1.73 m-2) which returns to baseline over time. In patients with diabetes the SGLT2 transporter likely accounts for as much as 14% of total sodium chloride absorption. In the acute setting following a single dose, SGLT2 inhibitors did not increase urine volume. However, the acute diuretic effects have not been studied in a population with heart failure with or without concomitant hyperglycemia who are undergoing diuresis. To our knowledge, no current trials are investigating the effects of SGLT2 inhibition in ADHF. The current studies planned in HF are investigating the acute effects of SGLT2 on stable HF (NCT03027960), the chronic effects of SGLT2 inhibition in compensated, chronic HF (NCT03619213, NCT02653482, NCT03030235, NCT03057977), changes in pulmonary pressure hemodynamics in patients monitored by CardioMEMs devices (NCT03030222), and effects on cardiopulmonary exercise fitness in chronic HF (NCT02862067).
Congestion remains the major cause of hospital readmission for heart failure and an inpatient plan of care that allowed more effective decongestion would be rapidly and widely adopted by the medical community. Therefore, we propose to test the decongesting effects of the SGLT2 inhibitor dapagliflozin in patients with or without Type II diabetes admitted with an acute decompensation of chronic heart failure.

RANDOMIZED
PARALLEL
TREATMENT
SINGLE
* Potential in-hospital worsening heart failure events

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Protocolized diuretic therapy
The patients with diabetes will receive standard of care point of care blood glucose monitoring 4 times daily (before meals and at bedtime) and sliding scale insulin.
The initial loop diuretic regimen after enrollment:
Loop diuretic naïve: If the patient does not take a scheduled loop diuretic as an outpatient, the initial IV loop diuretic dose will be 40mg of furosemide equivalents every 12 hours.
Chronic, oral loop diuretic therapy: If the patient takes a scheduled loop diuretic regimen as an outpatient prior to hospital admission, the initial IV loop diuretic daily dose will be 2 times the total daily home regimen dose. Diuretic therapy will be titrated to goal urine output using a standardized diuretic protocol.
Protocolized Diuretic Therapy
Structured usual care arm with protocolized diuretic therapy based on urine output.
Protocolized diuretic therapy plus SGLT2 inhibitor therapy
The patients with diabetes will receive standard of care point of care blood glucose monitoring 4 times daily (before meals and at bedtime) and sliding scale insulin.
The initial loop diuretic regimen after enrollment:
Loop diuretic naïve: If the patient does not take a scheduled loop diuretic as an outpatient, the initial IV loop diuretic dose will be 40mg of furosemide equivalents every 12 hours.
Chronic, oral loop diuretic therapy: If the patient takes a scheduled loop diuretic regimen as an outpatient prior to hospital admission, the initial IV loop diuretic daily dose will be 2 times the total daily home regimen dose. Diuretic therapy will be titrated to goal urine output using a standardized diuretic protocol.
The patient will receive SGLT2 inhibitor therapy with dapagliflozin 10 mg orally once daily until 5 days or hospital discharge.
