Acronym: RECEDE-CHF
Brief Summary: The RECEDE-CHF trial is a single centre phase IV, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover trial conducted in NHS Tayside, Scotland comparing empagliflozin 25mg, to placebo in patients with Type 2 Diabetes and mild Chronic Heart Failure with left ventricular systolic dysfunction who are already on a loop diuretic. Renal physiological testing will be performed at two points on each arm to assess the effect of empagliflozin, on urinary volume, compared to placebo. The secondary outcomes are to assess the effect of empagliflozin in addition to loop diuretics on natriuresis, to assess the safety of add-on SGLT2 inhibitor therapy as measured by changes to serum creatinine and eGFR, to assess effects of empagliflozin on urinary protein/creatinine ratio, albumin/creatinine ratio and cystatin C when compared to placebo.
Detailed Description: Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) and Heart Failure (HF) are a frequent combination, where treatment options remain limited. There has been increasing interest around the sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors and their use in patients with HF. This is following publication of EMPA-REG OUTCOME trial that reported a 14% reduction in the primary composite outcome of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke and \>30% reductions in cardiovascular mortality, overall mortality and HF hospitalisations in patients randomised to the SGLT2 inhibitor, empagliflozin, when compared to placebo. Data on the effect of SGLT2 inhibitor use with diuretics is limited. We hypothesize that, in the diabetic CHF population, SGLT2 inhibition may augment the effects of loop diuretics.

Renal Physiology Test (RPT) days will be performed at week 1 and week 6 on each arm of this crossover trial. On these RPT days participants will undergo oral water loading (15mls/kg) and frequent urination at 30 minute intervals to gain a steady state diuresis. The investigational medicinal product will be administered, followed by an intravenous bolus of furosemide at a dose of half the participant's usual loop diuretic dose.

This proof of concept trial will aim to shed light on the mechanism of the cardiovascular and renal outcomes demonstrated in the recent EMPA-REG study by documenting the influence of the SGLT2 inhibitors when used in combination with a loop diuretic on diuresis and natriuresis when compared to placebo.

The RECEDE-CHF trial is funded by the British Heart Foundation (BHF grant number: 807998). NAM is a BHF funded clinical research fellow.
