AIMS: To examine the efficacy and safety of dapagliflozin in the treatment of hyperglycemia in cardiac surgery patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D).

METHODS: Cardiac surgery patients with T2D (n = 250) were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive dapagliflozin plus basal-bolus insulin (DAPA group) or basal-bolus insulin alone (INSULIN group) in the early postoperative period. The primary outcome was mean difference in daily blood glucose (BG) concentrations between groups. The major safety outcomes were the occurrence of severe ketonemia/diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hypoglycemia. All analyses were performed according to the intention-to-treat principle.

RESULTS: The median age of the patients was 61 years (range, 55-61), and 219 (87.6%) were men. Overall, the randomization blood glucose was 165 mg/dL (SD, 37) and glycated hemoglobin was 7.7% (SD, 1.4). There were no differences in mean daily BG concentrations (149 vs. 150 mg/dL), mean percentage of readings within target BG of 70-180 mg/dL (82.7% vs. 82.5%), total daily insulin dose (mean, 39 vs. 40 units/day), number of daily insulin injections (median, 3.9 vs. 4), length of hospital stay (median, 10 vs. 10 days), or hospital complications (21.6% vs. 24.8%) between the DAPA and INSULIN groups. The mean plasma ketone levels were significantly higher in the DAPA group than in the INSULIN group at day 3 (0.71 vs. 0.30 mmol/L) and day 5 (0.42 vs. 0.19 mmol/L) of randomization. Six patients in the DAPA group developed severe ketonemia, but no patient developed DKA. There were no differences in the proportion of patients with BG < 70 mg/dL (9.6% vs. 7.2%) between the two groups.

CONCLUSION: Dapagliflozin complementary to basal-bolus insulin does not improve glycemia further over and above the basal-bolus insulin alone in hospitalized cardiac surgery patients. Dapagliflozin significantly increases plasma ketones levels. Safety of dapagliflozin in hospitalized patients needs further investigation. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov NCT05457933.
