RECRUITING

A Randomized, Placebo-controlled Trial of DAPAgliflozin (DAPA) for Cardiovascular Risk Reduction in the Postpartum Period of Hypertensive Pregnancies (HP)

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This trial is a pilot-scale, single institution randomized, placebo-controlled trial to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and efficacy of administering dapagliflozin for cardiovascular risk reduction in the postpartum period. The target population is patients at high risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes within five years post-delivery. Eligible participants will be randomized to receive either: 1) dapagliflozin (10mg daily) for six months (DAPA group) or 2) an orally administered, daily placebo (Control group). The study hypothesizes: The dapagliflozin group will have higher cardiovascular risk reduction scores than the Control Group.

  3. * Consents to participation and must understand/read/speak English with the ability to understand and willingness to sign a written informed consent in English
  4. * Diagnosed with a hypertensive pregnancy by either of the following criteria:
  5. * Taking an antihypertensive medication for the diagnosis of chronic or essential hypertension at the time of admission
  6. * Hypertension, chronic hypertension, or essential hypertension must be present in the prospective participant's medical record
  7. * Antihypertensive" can be any medication taken for the purpose of blood pressure control per the medical record
