The Trial

Analysis of protective benefits of Dapaglifozin

The SGLT2 HYPE trial is a large, international study evaluating the effects of dapagliflozin, an SGLT2 inhibitor, in elderly adults with uncontrolled hypertension at cardiovascular risk. This trial will monitor heart and kidney health outcomes in nearly 3,200 participants over a seven-year period, providing critical insights into the potential benefits of SGLT2 inhibitors for hypertension management.

Study Flowchart

After an initial eligibility check (Visit 1), participants are randomly assigned to receive either Dapagliflozin plus standard blood pressure medication or a placebo plus standard blood pressure medication (Visit 2). A safety visit follows (Visit 3), and participants then continue treatment with follow-up visits every six months until the trial concludes—currently expected by June 2032. During these visits, blood pressure measurements, laboratory sampling, and questionnaires are conducted to monitor participants’ health and treatment effects. The study ends with a final visit at the end of treatment.
