Key Points: Empagliflozin is cost-effective for the treatment of CKD in patients with an urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio of 30 mg/g or more. Empagliflozin is not cost-effective for the treatment of CKD in patients with an urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio <30 mg/g.
Background: The Study of Heart and Kidney Protection with Empagliflozin (EMPA-KIDNEY) expanded the CKD population that may benefit from sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors in terms of eGFR and urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients is associated with end-stage renal disease and significant economic burden. While sodium glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) show renal benefits in randomized controlled trials (RCTs), their cost-effectiveness in Thailand remains unclear. This study evaluates the cost-utility of adding SGLT2i (dapagliflozin, empagliflozin, and canagliflozin) to standard of care therapy (SoCT) for T2D patients with CKD in Thailand.

The long-term cost-effectiveness of empagliflozin for the treatment of heart failure (HF) in the Philippines remains unclear. This study aims to determine the economic benefit of adding empagliflozin to the standard of care (SoC) vs the SoC alone for HF in the Philippines.

Aim: The recent EMPA-KIDNEY trial showed evidence for preventing disease progression in adult patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) treated with empagliflozin. It is however yet unknown if use of empagliflozin is cost effective in the Netherlands. We aimed to evaluate the cost effectiveness of empagliflozin in adult patients with CKD in the Netherlands.

Background And Objective: The efficacy and safety of empagliflozin in the treatment of chronic kidney disease (CKD) were demonstrated in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial, which showed a 28% reduction in combined risks of kidney disease or death from cardiovascular causes (hazard ratio, 0.72; 95% confidence interval, 0.64-0.
