Study Summary

This trial looks at how a drug affects heart, lung & metabolic health in CKD patients.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with chronic kidney disease who are on stable heart medication, have signs of a specific type of heart failure but no symptoms, and an eGFR between 25-60. It's not for those with liver disease, recent heart procedures, extreme blood pressure levels, pregnancy, certain systemic diseases like amyloidosis or sarcoidosis, diabetes, severe lung disease requiring oxygen therapy or significant chest pain.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the effects of Dapagliflozin (Farxiga), a drug that affects sugar transport in kidneys when added to standard care. It focuses on how this drug influences heart and lung function as well as metabolites in patients with chronic kidney disease.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While the information provided does not specify side effects for Dapagliflozin in this context directly, common ones may include dehydration leading to low blood pressure; genital yeast infections; urinary tract infections; increased urination; and potential risk of diabetic ketoacidosis.
