Impact of Dapagliflozin Adjunctive Therapy on the Progression of Chronic Kidney Disease in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes and Chronic Kidney Disease Stages 2-5: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: This meta-analysis investigated efficacy of dapagliflozin as adjunctive therapy for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 2-5. A systematic search was conducted of selected databases for randomised controlled trials that reported the mean change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and urine albumin-creatinine ratio (UACR) from baseline. Out of 1,682 identified studies, 9 trials comprising 13,057 patients were included. A pooled estimate of 5 studies indicated that dapagliflozin did not affect eGFR; however, in 2 studies, it significantly reduced chronic eGFR decline compared to placebo (mean difference [MD] ± 2.74; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.55, 3.92; P <0.00001). Additionally, a pooled estimate of 4 studies showed that dapagl
