The Effect of Dapagliflozin on Platelet Function testinG Profiles in Diabetic PatiEnts.

• Status: Recruiting
• Trial end date: 2022-06-30
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

Sodium GLucose Transport 2 inhibitors (SGLT2I), including dapagliflozin, reduce the likelihood of hospitalization for heart failure and death in persons with type 2 diabetes, of which the mechanism has not been fully elucidated. The mechanistic effects of dapagliflozin on platelet function profiles have not yet been ascertained. It remains unclear if this reduction in cardiovascular death is mediated by decreased platelet reactivity.
