Abstract

Suboptimal glycemic control is often associated with albuminuria and decline in estimated GFR (eGFR) in patients with diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Sodium-glucose linked transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) inhibitors have individually been shown to exert benefit on glycemic control and/or albuminuria in patients with DKD. We assessed the effects of the SGLT2 inhibitor dapagliflozin (dapa) alone and in combination with the DPP4 inhibitor saxagliptin (saxa) on albuminuria and HbA1c in patients with Type 2 diabetes and DKD.
