Abstract
Purpose of review: Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors are glucose lowering agents with protective effects on cardiovascular health and the ability to slow chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression. The benefits of SGLT-2 inhibitors have not been studied in patients with advanced CKD or on maintenance dialysis. Ultrafiltration failure is a common reason for failure of peritoneal dialysis (PD). Glucose transporters, such as SGLT-2, are involved in the progression to ultrafiltration failure, and hence, SGLT-2 inhibitors might be beneficial in patients on PD to prevent ultrafiltration failure.
Source of information: Here, we review data from animal models and ongoing clinical trials of SGLT-2 inhibitors in advanced CKD, as well as considerations for a phase III trial in patients on PD.
Methods: A literature search was conducted and information on clinical trials was obtained from clinicaltrials.gov.
Key findings: Animal models of PD have shown upregulation of glucose transporters in the peritoneal membrane and a potential effect of SGLT-2 inhibitors on glucose absorption and ultrafiltration. Several clinical trials are currently ongoing with SGLT-2 inhibitors in patients on PD. We discuss their study designs and propose a mixed-methods, patient-centered approach to studying SGLT-2 inhibitors in PD patients. We also discuss the potential implications of SGLT-2 inhibitors on people living with kidney failure, especially in remote communities.
期刊介绍:
Canadian Journal of Kidney Health and Disease, the official journal of the Canadian Society of Nephrology, is an open access, peer-reviewed online journal that encourages high quality submissions focused on clinical, translational and health services delivery research in the field of chronic kidney disease, dialysis, kidney transplantation and organ donation. Our mandate is to promote and advocate for kidney health as it impacts national and international communities. Basic science, translational studies and clinical studies will be peer reviewed and processed by an Editorial Board comprised of geographically diverse Canadian and international nephrologists, internists and allied health professionals; this Editorial Board is mandated to ensure highest quality publications.
