Official title
EMPA-TROPISM Trial: Are the "Cardiac Benefits" of Empagliflozin Independent of Its Hypoglycemic Activity?
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Purpose: The overall hypothesis of the study is that the benefits attained in the EMPA-OUTCOME were, at least in part, mediated by a glucose-independent mechanism. Thus, to demonstrate the existence of the postulated non-glucose dependent effects, the researchers will investigate the safety and efficacy of empagliflozin versus placebo on top of guideline-directed medical therapy in heart failure patients with reduced ejection fraction without diabetes.
