In individuals with T2D at high cardiovascular risk and/or with chronic kidney disease, canagliflozin reduced the total burden of HF hospitalizations, with consistent benefits observed across the kidney function spectrum.
Study context
- Population
- T2D at high CV risk and/or with CKD, by baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (<45, 45–60, >60 ml/min/1.73 m²)with baseline eGFR
- Participants
- 14,540 participants
- Comparison
- Canagliflozin vs placebo
- Outcome
- Total (first and recurrent) HF hospitalizations by baseline kidney function
- Follow-up
- Median 2.5 years
Methodological detailsblinded adjudication of heart failure (HF) hospitalizations

Absolute benefit by kidney function
- Larger absolute benefits in participants with worse baseline kidney function
