- 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

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.
