The trial is looking for adults with kidney AL amyloidosis and a lot of protein in the urine, living in Michigan. They would take dapagliflozin for 6 months.

Age
18 years or older
Sex
All sexes
Disease stage
Kidney AL amyloidosis confirmed by biopsy, with more than 1.0 g/day protein in the urine and no other cause. Performance status (ECOG) 0, 1 or 2.
Earlier treatment
Kidney response (less protein in the urine) must have stopped improving for at least 3 months. Cannot have used any SGLT2i drug before. ACE inhibitor or ARB doses must not have been started or changed in the last 3 months.

Main reasons for not taking part

  • Symptomatic multiple myeloma, now or in the past
  • Ongoing first-line induction treatment, or maintenance treatment for less than 6 months
  • Diabetes mellitus needing treatment
  • Baseline eGFR below 25 mL/min/1.73m2
  • Severe liver disease, or pregnancy or breastfeeding

About the trial

What the trial wants to find out

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if an oral drug called dapagliflozin is safe and can reduce high protein levels in the urine of patients with renal amyloid light-chain (AL) amyloidosis using a decentralized study design.
