FORXIGA is the first SGLT2 inhibitor approved by BPOM for the treatment of symptomatic chronic stable heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, as an adjunct to standard of care therapy. A study found that FORXIGA reduced the risk of the primary composite outcome in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Additionally, treatment with FORXIGA resulted in a clinically meaningful improvement in heart failure symptoms and quality of life as measured by the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire.

aBased on a prospective observational study of 3494 US outpatients with chronic HFrEF in the CHAMP-HF registry; bBased on a retrospective analysis of 51,286 patients from a US Military Data Repository admitted to a healthcare facility
for the first time for heart failure. During the 7-year study period (2007–2013), patients were assessed for subsequent hHF, comorbidities,
and mortality data. No distinction was made between patients with reduced or preserved ejection fraction

“The benefit of dapagliflozin on reducing important clinical events was seen
within weeks of its initiation. Given that HF is associated with severely
impaired survival, a timely initiation of an agent with a proven benefit
on outcomes is of a crucial clinical importance” 1

11. The KCCQ is a patient self-administered instrument
that measures QoL in patients with HF

(Accessed March 2021)
What is the KCCQ?
Self-administered questionnaire
measuring patient perception of HF
impact on six domains:
• Physical function/limitations
• Symptoms
• Symptom stability
• Social interference
• Quality of life
• Self-efficacy
Oedema
Dyspnoea
Fatigue
Shortness of breath
Key HF symptoms

12. Dapagliflozin improved patient QoL from baseline to month 4
and sustained the improvement at month 8

Change in KCCQ-OSS from baseline1,a
Patients taking FORXIGA reported a significant
reduction in physical and social limitations,

Secondary endpoint:
Treatment with FORXIGA resulted in a clinically
meaningful benefit over placebo in heart failure
symptoms, as measured by change from baseline
at month 8
in the KCCQ-TSS
(Win ratio: 1.18 [95% CI: 1.11, 1.26]; P<0.0001)2
aThe key secondary endpoint was the KCCQ-TSS. A total of 4443 patients had available KCCQ data at baseline; of these, 4141 and 3955 patients had KCCQ data evaluated at 4 and 8 months, respectively. Treatment with dapagliflozin
resulted in a clinically meaningful benefit over placebo in heart failure symptoms, as measured by change from baseline at month 8 in the KCCQ-TSS (Win ratio: 1.18 [95% CI: 1.11, 1.26]; P<0.0001). A change in 5 points in the KCCQ-OSS
is generally considered to be clinically meaningful
