Key clinical point: Canagliflozin reduced not only the risk for the first cardiovascular (CV) events but also subsequent CV events in patients with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease (CKD), with absolute benefits being greater for total CV events.
Major finding: Canagliflozin reduced the risk for the first (hazard ratio 0.74; P < .001) and total (incidence rate ratio 0.71; P < .001) CV events by 26% and 29%, respectively, with the absolute risk difference per 1000 patients treated over 2.5 years being −44 (95% CI −67 to −21) and −73 (95% CI −114 to −33) for the first and total CV events, respectively.
Study details: This was a post hoc analysis of the CREDENCE trial including patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D; glycated hemoglobin 6.5%-12.0%) and CKD who were randomly assigned to receive canagliflozin or placebo.
Disclosures: The CREDENCE trial was sponsored by Janssen Research & Development, LLC. Some authors reported serving as advisory board members, speakers, or consultants, or receiving honoraria, research support, consulting, travel, or scientific presentation fees from various sources, including Janssen.
