Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The main goal of this study is to evaluate the effect of oral dapagliflozin on renal function in cardiac allograft recipients. ;Secondary Objective: Secondary objectives are to assess the impact of treatment on: i) weight, ii) proteinuria in the subset of patients with an albumin / creatinine ratio in the urine > 30, and iii) blood levels of glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) in patients with diabetes mellitus, as well as iv) safety. ;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint will be the slope of the eGFR from 2 weeks to end-of-treatment (12 months), calculated as the difference in eGFR from two weeks to 12 months after start of the intervention. The eGFR is calculated from serum creatinine using the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formula.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: From 2 weeks to end-of-treatment (12 months) | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): Baseline-adjusted body weight The change in the albumin / creatinine ratio in the urine from baseline to end-of-treatment in patients with a baseline ratio > 30 mg/g at baseline The change in the blood level of glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) in patients with diabetes mellitus ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: From 2 weeks to end-of-treatment (12 months) | — |
