Are Two Gliflozins Different: A Prospective Multicenter Randomized Study to Assess Effect of Remogliflozin Compared With Empagliflozin on Biomarkers of Heart Failure in Indian Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus with Chronic Heart Failure (REMIT-HF Study)

Here are the Are Two Gliflozins Different: A Prospective Multicenter Randomized Study to Assess Effect of Remogliflozin Compared With Empagliflozin on Biomarkers of Heart Failure in Indian Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus with Chronic Heart Failure (REMIT-HF Study) journals presenting the latest research across various disciplines. From social sciences to technology, each article is expected to provide valuable insights to our readers.

Are two dogs better than one, are two gliflozins different a prospective study, are two gliflozins different angles, are two gliflozins drugs, there are two types of people in this world.

There is limited data comparing two gliflozins on their effect on biomarkers in diabetic patients with chronic heart failure. A prospective, multicenter, active controlled, double-arm, investigator-initiated, interventional study enrolled 250 adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and comorbid congestive heart failure (CHF; left ventricular ejection fraction [LVEF] <40%; N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide [NT-proBNP] >600 pg/mL). A total of 125 patients were allocated each to a remogliflozin (R) and empagliflozin (E) group and followed up for 24 weeks. The primary endpoint was the mean percentage change from baseline in NT-proBNP level after 24 weeks. There was significant improvement from baseline in mean NT-proBNP level in both groups after 24 weeks. However, there was no significant difference between the two groups (P = .214). The mean NT-proBNP level improved from 2078.15 ± 1764.70 pg/mL at baseline to 1185.06 ± 1164.21 pg/mL at 6 months in the R-group (P � �� .001) and from 2283.98 ± 1759.15 pg/mL at baseline to 1395.33 ± 1304.18 pg/mL at 6 months in the E-group (P < .001). LVEF and LV volumes improved in both groups. The glycemic parameters (HbA1c, FPG, and PPG) demonstrated a significant reduction from baseline to week 24 in both groups. Similar improvement was seen in heart rate, blood pressure, and weight reduction over 6 months in both groups. There was no drug-related serious adverse events in any group. Remogliflozin and empagliflozin significantly improve glycemic parameters and NT-proBNP levels as the index of the therapeutic effects in T2DM patients with CHF. The positive effects are comparable in both groups. © 2024 Elsevier Inc.
