An echocardiography substudy of the STEP-HFpEF Program found that once-weekly semaglutide 2.4 mg attenuated left atrial and right ventricular remodelling versus placebo, without changing left ventricular systolic function. PICO summary and expert commentary.
A 32-week post hoc MRI substudy of 80 patients with type 2 diabetes finds semaglutide and empagliflozin each reduce cortical ADC and total kidney volume, with combination therapy lowering kidney volume most. PICO summary and expert commentary.
A pre-specified secondary analysis of the SELECT trial found that once-weekly semaglutide 2.4 mg modestly reduced a composite kidney endpoint versus placebo in adults with overweight or obesity and established cardiovascular disease, without diabetes. PICO summary and expert commentary.
Prespecified pooled analysis of the STEP-HFpEF program shows once-weekly semaglutide 2.4 mg improved NYHA functional class versus placebo in obesity-related HFpEF. PICO summary and expert commentary.
A prespecified secondary analysis of the STEP-HFpEF programme found that semaglutide 2.4 mg lowered NT-proBNP and produced larger health-status gains in patients with higher baseline NT-proBNP. PICO summary and expert commentary.
A prespecified FLOW subgroup analysis tested whether semaglutide’s kidney and cardiovascular benefit held with or without baseline SGLT2 inhibitor use in type 2 diabetes and CKD. PICO summary and expert commentary.
Prespecified secondary analysis of the pooled STEP-HFpEF trials finds semaglutide 2.4 mg improves heart failure symptoms similarly in women and men, with greater weight loss in women. PICO summary and expert commentary.
