Dapagliflozin has been evaluated in clinical trials in adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

The overall safety profile of dapagliflozin was consistent across the studied indications.

Severe hypoglycemia and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) were observed only in patients with diabetes mellitus.

Clinical Trials for Glycemic Control in Adult Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Pool of 12 Placebo-Controlled Adult Trials for dapagliflozin tablets, 5 and 10 mg for Glycemic Control The data in Table 1 is derived from 12 glycemic control placebo-controlled trials in adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus ranging from 12 to 24 weeks.

In 4 trials dapagliflozin was used as monotherapy, and in 8 trials dapagliflozin was used as add-on to background antidiabetic therapy or as combination therapy with metformin [see Clinical Studies ( 14.1 )].

These data reflect exposure of 2338 adult patients to dapagliflozin with a mean exposure duration of 21 weeks.

Patients received placebo (N=1393), dapagliflozin tablets, 5 mg (N=1145), or dapagliflozin tablets, 10 mg (N=1193) once daily.

The mean age of the population was 55 years and 2% were older than 75 years of age.

Fifty percent (50%) of the population were male; 81% were White, 14% were Asian, and 3% were Black or African American.

At baseline, the population had diabetes for an average of 6 years, had a mean hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) of 8.3%, and 21% had established microvascular complications of diabetes.

Baseline renal function was normal or mildly impaired in 92% of patients and moderately impaired in 8% of patients (mean eGFR 86 mL/min/1.73 m 2 ).

Table 1 shows common adverse reactions in adults associated with the use of dapagliflozin tablets.

These adverse reactions were not present at baseline, occurred more commonly on dapagliflozin tablets than on placebo, and occurred in at least 2% of patients treated with either dapagliflozin tablets, 5 mg or dapagliflozin tablets, 10 mg.

This pool combined 13 placebo-controlled trials, including 3 monotherapy trials, 9 add-on to background antidiabetic therapy trials, and an initial combination with metformin trial.

Across these 13 trials, 2360 patients were treated once daily with dapagliflozin tablets, 10 mg for a mean duration of exposure of 22 weeks.

The mean age of the population was 59 years and 4% were older than 75 years.

Fifty-eight percent (58%) of the population were male; 84% were White, 9% were Asian, and 3% were Black or African American.

At baseline, the population had diabetes for an average of 9 years, had a mean HbA1c of 8.2%, and 30% had established microvascular disease.

Baseline renal function was normal or mildly impaired in 88% of patients and moderately impaired in 11% of patients (mean eGFR 82 mL/min/1.73 m 2 ).

Other Adverse Reactions in Adult Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Volume Depletion Dapagliflozin causes an osmotic diuresis, which may lead to a reduction in intravascular volume.

Adverse reactions related to volume depletion (including reports of dehydration, hypovolemia, orthostatic hypotension, or hypotension) in adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus for the 12-trial and 13-trial, short-term, placebo-controlled pools and for the DECLARE trial are shown in Table 2 [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )] .

Table 2: Adverse Reactions Related to Volume Depletion Volume depletion includes reports of dehydration, hypovolemia, orthostatic hypotension, or hypotension.

Hypoglycemia was more frequent when dapagliflozin was added to sulfonylurea or insulin [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4 )] .

Table 3: Incidence of Severe Hypoglycemia Severe episodes of hypoglycemia were defined as episodes of severe impairment in consciousness or behavior, requiring external (third party) assistance, and with prompt recovery after intervention regardless of glucose level.

and Hypoglycemia with Glucose < 54 mg/dL Episodes of hypoglycemia with glucose <54 mg/dL (3 mmol/L) were defined as reported episodes of hypoglycemia meeting the glucose criteria that did not also qualify as a severe episode.

Genital Mycotic Infections In the glycemic control trials in adults, genital mycotic infections were more frequent with dapagliflozin treatment.

Genital mycotic infections were reported in 0.9% of patients on placebo, 5.7% on dapagliflozin tablets, 5 mg, and 4.8% on dapagliflozin tablets, 10 mg, in the 12-trial placebo- controlled pool.

Discontinuation from trial due to genital infection occurred in 0% of placebo-treated patients and 0.2% of patients treated with dapagliflozin tablets, 10 mg.

Infections were more frequently reported in females than in males (see Table 1).

The most frequently reported genital mycotic infections were vulvovaginal mycotic infections in females and balanitis in males.

Patients with a history of genital mycotic infections were more likely to have a genital mycotic infection during the trial than those with no prior history (10%, 23.1%, and 25% versus 0.8%, 5.9%, and 5% on placebo, dapagliflozin tablets, 5 mg, and dapagliflozin tablets, 10 mg, respectively).

In the DECLARE trial [see Clinical Studies (14.3)] , serious genital mycotic infections were reported in <0.1% of patients treated with dapagliflozin and <0.1% of patients treated with placebo.

Genital mycotic infections that caused trial drug discontinuation were reported in 0.9% of patients treated with dapagliflozin and <0.1% of patients treated with placebo.

Hypersensitivity Reactions Hypersensitivity reactions (e.g., angioedema, urticaria, hypersensitivity) were reported with dapagliflozin treatment.

In glycemic control trials in adults, serious anaphylactic reactions and severe cutaneous adverse reactions and angioedema were reported in 0.2% of comparator-treated patients and 0.3% of dapagliflozin-treated patients.

If hypersensitivity reactions occur, discontinue use of dapagliflozin tablets; treat per standard of care and monitor until signs and symptoms resolve.

Ketoacidosis in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus In the DECLARE trial [see Clinical Studies (14.3)] , events of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) were reported in 27 out of 8574 adult patients in the dapagliflozin tablets-treated group and 12 out of 8569 adult patients in the placebo group.

The events were evenly distributed over the trial period.

Laboratory Tests in Adult Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Increases in Serum Creatinine and Decreases in eGFR Initiation of SGLT2 inhibitors, including dapagliflozin tablets causes a small increase in serum creatinine and decrease in eGFR.

These changes in serum creatinine and eGFR generally occur within two weeks of starting therapy and then stabilize regardless of baseline kidney function.

Changes that do not fit this pattern should prompt further evaluation to exclude the possibility of acute kidney injury [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )] .

In two trials that included adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with moderate renal impairment, the acute effect on eGFR reversed after treatment discontinuation, suggesting acute hemodynamic changes may play a role in the renal function changes observed with dapagliflozin tablets.

Increase in Hematocrit In the pool of 13 placebo-controlled trials of glycemic control, increases from baseline in mean hematocrit values were observed in dapagliflozin tablets-treated adult patients starting at Week 1 and continuing up to Week 16, when the maximum mean difference from baseline was observed.

At Week 24, the mean changes from baseline in hematocrit were −0.33% in the placebo group and 2.30% in the dapagliflozin tablets, 10 mg group.

By Week 24, hematocrit values >55% were reported in 0.4% of placebo-treated patients and 1.3% of dapagliflozin tablets, 10 mg-treated patients.

Increase in Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol In the pool of 13 placebo-controlled trials of glycemic control, changes from baseline in mean lipid values were reported in dapagliflozin-treated adult patients compared to placebo-treated patients.

Mean percent changes from baseline at Week 24 were 0% versus 2.5% for total cholesterol, and −1% versus 2.9% for LDL cholesterol in the placebo and dapagliflozin tablets, 10 mg groups, respectively.

In the DECLARE trial [see Clinical Studies (14.3)] , mean changes from baseline after 4 years were 0.4 mg/dL versus -4.1mg/dL for total cholesterol, and -2.5 mg/dL versus -4.4 mg/dL for LDL cholesterol, in dapagliflozin-treated and the placebo groups, respectively.

Decrease in Serum Bicarbonate In a trial of concomitant therapy of dapagliflozin tablets 10 mg with exenatide extended-release (on a background of metformin) in adults, four patients (1.7%) on concomitant therapy had a serum bicarbonate value of less than or equal to 13 mEq/L compared to one each (0.4%) in the dapagliflozin tablets and exenatide-extended release treatment groups [ see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] .

6.2 Postmarketing Experience Additional adverse reactions have been identified during post-approval use of dapagliflozin tablets in patients with diabetes mellitus.

Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is generally not possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.
