Conditions

Chronic Kidney Diseases, Heart Failure, Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Brief summary

The primary objective of the study was to compare the effect of sotagliflozin to placebo on total occurrences of cardiovascular (CV) death, hospitalization for heart failure \[HHF\], and urgent visit for heart failure \[HF\] in participants with type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular risk factors, and moderate to severely impaired renal function.

Interventions

DRUGPlacebo

Placebo was administered as a tablet(s) (identical to the sotagliflozin tablet in appearance), orally once daily.

DRUGSotagliflozin

Sotagliflozin was administered as a tablet(s), orally once daily.
