Cardiorenal Outcomes With Ertugliflozin By Baseline Cardiorenal Medications: An Analysis From Vertis Cv

VERTIS CV was a placebo-controlled cardiovascular (CV) outcome trial evaluating the SGLT2 inhibitor ertugliflozin. The aim of current analyses was to examine pre-specified CV and kidney outcomes by Cox proportional hazard assessment according to use of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors (RAASi), diuretics, and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRA) at baseline. Among 8246 randomized patients, at baseline 6686 (81%) were treated with RAASi, 3542 (43%) with diuretics, including 1252 (15%) with loop diuretics, and 674 (8%) with MRA. No significant interactions were observed for cardiorenal outcomes by baseline use of RAASi or MRA (Pinteraction > 0.05 for all; FIGURE). Nominally significant interactions for first event of hospitalization for heart failure (HHF) and HHF/CV death were observed with baseline use of diuretics, including loop diuretics, with an increased benefit of ertugliflozin vs. placebo. In VERTIS CV, baseline use of diuretics, including loop diuretics, appeared to be associated with greater benefit of ertugliflozin on first HHF and HHF/CV death, with no modification of effect based on baseline use of RAASi or MRA.View largeDownload slideView largeDownload slide DisclosureD.
