Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors, Malnutrition, Cachexia, and Survival in Patients With Heart Failure With a History of Anthracycline Treatment.

Patients undergoing anthracycline-based cancer treatments have an increased risk of heart failure or worsening preexisting heart failure as well as adverse metabolic outcomes such as malnutrition and cachexia. This retrospective study explored the impact of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) on these outcomes in patients with heart failure previously treated with anthracyclines. Using the TriNetX research network, we identified 1545 patients with a history of SGLT2i use and 17,681 patients without a history of SGLT2i use.
