Based on the pharmacovigilance study using a real-world database from Japan, we had previously proposed the hypothesis that SGLT2i may affect the risk of stroke differently depending on the subtype of stroke, in a way to increase the risk of ischemic stroke but to decrease the risk of hemorrhagic stroke.
Objective: We aim to validate the above hypothesis.
Study Design: Retrospective analysis of association between the incidence of stroke (subtypes) and the use of SGLT2i.
Participants: Participants from 6 clinical trials receiving canagliflozin compared to matched control.
Main Outcome Measure: Incidence of stroke (subtypes) following the use of SGLT2i.
Statistical Analysis: Subtype-wise stroke adverse events (e.g., ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke) were separately summarized to calculate odds ratio for the incidence of each stroke subtype during the follow-up period (binary). Then we use multi-level logistic regression. In addition, if we could use the period from medication start to the development of stroke, we will use Cox-proportional hazard test (including each trial as frailty term) to compare the hazard to develop each stroke subtype between the treatment arm and control arm."
["project_brief_bg"]=>
string(3092) "Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are the newest class of peroral hypoglycemic agents that are commercially available for type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) treatment. It has a weak loop diuretic effect [1-3] leading to lowered body weight and blood pressure, and SGLT2i reduces major cardiovascular adverse events (AEs) and also reduces the risk of renal disease progression [4,5]. The diuretic effect can result in volume depletion [6-8], orthostatic hypotension [9], and dehydration [3], which may raise concern about the increased risk of ischemic stroke [3]. Whereas a few of earlier studies reported a tendency for the increased risk of non-fatal stroke development following SGLT2i use [10], in many earlier meta-analysis studies the risk of non-fatal stroke following SGLT2i use was reported not to have increased nor decreased [5,11,12].
One potential bias in the non-significant effect for the risk of stroke following SGLT2i use is that earlier randomized controlled trials (RCTs) investigating the safety of SGLT2i used the aggregated incidence of non-fatal stroke of any subtype for statistical analysis without distinguishing different stroke subtype (e.g. ischemic and hemorrhagic) [13-15]. However, risk factors for developing stroke vary in each stroke subtype [16-18].
The diuretic effect of SGLT2i may decrease the risk of embolism and hemorrhagic stroke by ameliorating hypertension and congestive heart failure causing atrial fibrillation [19, 20], while it may increase the risk of lacunar infarction by the elevated hematocrit and excessive dehydration [21]. We suspected that such discrepancy in the effect of SGLT2i on the risk of each stroke subtype may have masked the overall incidence of stroke, resulting in the non-significant stroke risk concluded by the previous studies.
To address this point, in our previous study we have conducted a disproportionate analysis as the pharmacovigilance approach, using a large Japanese AE self-reporting database [22]. As a result, the SGLT2i showed varying degree of significantly higher reporting for all ischemic stroke, thrombosis, lacunar infarction, and embolism, but no significant higher reporting for hemorrhagic stroke. These results provides us the hypothesis that the development of stroke following SGLT2i use may possibly differ depending on the stroke subtypes.
However, since the self-reporting database contains many limitations that are inherent in this type of database, such as reporting bias, insufficient clinical covariates available, and the lack of denominators [9, 23], analyzing observational data is essential to validate this hypothesis.
We consider that using the data from YODA database will be rationalized because the dehydration due to the use of diuretics can also be seen within the short-term period after its administration, and also because the results obtained from this study will be the basis for the future risk-stratified research, even though the included studies are the short-term studies on patients with lower cerebrovascular risks."

Project Title:
Subtype-dependent risk of stroke following the use of SGLT2 inhibitors
Scientific Abstract:
Background: Volume depletion as adverse events (AE) by sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) due to its diuretic effect, may raise the concern about the risk of lacunar stroke; however, earlier RCTs or meta-analysis reported no significant increase in the incidence of stroke without clearly distinguishing stroke subtypes. Based on the pharmacovigilance study using a real-world database from Japan, we had previously proposed the hypothesis that SGLT2i may affect the risk of stroke differently depending on the subtype of stroke, in a way to increase the risk of ischemic stroke but to decrease the risk of hemorrhagic stroke.
Objective: We aim to validate the above hypothesis.
Study Design: Retrospective analysis of association between the incidence of stroke (subtypes) and the use of SGLT2i.
Participants: Participants from 6 clinical trials receiving canagliflozin compared to matched control.
Main Outcome Measure: Incidence of stroke (subtypes) following the use of SGLT2i.
Statistical Analysis: Subtype-wise stroke adverse events (e.g., ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke) were separately summarized to calculate odds ratio for the incidence of each stroke subtype during the follow-up period (binary). Then we use multi-level logistic regression. In addition, if we could use the period from medication start to the development of stroke, we will use Cox-proportional hazard test (including each trial as frailty term) to compare the hazard to develop each stroke subtype between the treatment arm and control arm.
Brief Project Background and Statement of Project Significance:
Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are the newest class of peroral hypoglycemic agents that are commercially available for type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) treatment. It has a weak loop diuretic effect [1-3] leading to lowered body weight and blood pressure, and SGLT2i reduces major cardiovascular adverse events (AEs) and also reduces the risk of renal disease progression [4,5]. The diuretic effect can result in volume depletion [6-8], orthostatic hypotension [9], and dehydration [3], which may raise concern about the increased risk of ischemic stroke [3]. Whereas a few of earlier studies reported a tendency for the increased risk of non-fatal stroke development following SGLT2i use [10], in many earlier meta-analysis studies the risk of non-fatal stroke following SGLT2i use was reported not to have increased nor decreased [5,11,12].
One potential bias in the non-significant effect for the risk of stroke following SGLT2i use is that earlier randomized controlled trials (RCTs) investigating the safety of SGLT2i used the aggregated incidence of non-fatal stroke of any subtype for statistical analysis without distinguishing different stroke subtype (e.g. ischemic and hemorrhagic) [13-15]. However, risk factors for developing stroke vary in each stroke subtype [16-18].
The diuretic effect of SGLT2i may decrease the risk of embolism and hemorrhagic stroke by ameliorating hypertension and congestive heart failure causing atrial fibrillation [19, 20], while it may increase the risk of lacunar infarction by the elevated hematocrit and excessive dehydration [21]. We suspected that such discrepancy in the effect of SGLT2i on the risk of each stroke subtype may have masked the overall incidence of stroke, resulting in the non-significant stroke risk concluded by the previous studies.
To address this point, in our previous study we have conducted a disproportionate analysis as the pharmacovigilance approach, using a large Japanese AE self-reporting database [22]. As a result, the SGLT2i showed varying degree of significantly higher reporting for all ischemic stroke, thrombosis, lacunar infarction, and embolism, but no significant higher reporting for hemorrhagic stroke. These results provides us the hypothesis that the development of stroke following SGLT2i use may possibly differ depending on the stroke subtypes.
However, since the self-reporting database contains many limitations that are inherent in this type of database, such as reporting bias, insufficient clinical covariates available, and the lack of denominators [9, 23], analyzing observational data is essential to validate this hypothesis.
We consider that using the data from YODA database will be rationalized because the dehydration due to the use of diuretics can also be seen within the short-term period after its administration, and also because the results obtained from this study will be the basis for the future risk-stratified research, even though the included studies are the short-term studies on patients with lower cerebrovascular risks.
Specific Aims of the Project:
To evaluate the degree of risk developing stroke subtypes following the use of canagliflozin.
We aim to validate our hypothesis that SGLT2i may affect the risk of stroke differently depending on its subtype: increasing the risk of ischemic stroke but decreasing the risk of hemorrhagic stroke. In this project, we aim to validate our hypothesis. And such discrepancy in the effect of SGLT2i on the risk of each stroke subtype may have masked the overall incidence of stroke, resulting in the non-significant stroke risk concluded by the previous studies.

Software Used:
RStudio
Data Source and Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria to be used to define the patient sample for your study:
Retrospective analysis of subtype-wise stroke risk in patients treated with canagliflozin, by evaluating patient-level data from 6 clinical studies as follows: NCT01809327, NCT01381900, NCT01340664, NCT02025907, NCT00650806, and NCT02243202.
Inclusion criteria:
1. Participants treated with canagliflozin or control, with either sex, any age, ethnicity, and HbA1c.
Exclusion criteria:
1. No sufficient information on the above variables and some additional covariates as follows: history of smoking, dyslipidemia, hypertension, use of antithrombosis or anticoagulants, use of other types of anti-diabetic drug, use of diuretics, history of cardiovascular diseases, and the history of cerebrovascular diseases.
Primary and Secondary Outcome Measure(s) and how they will be categorized/defined for your study:
The primary outcome measure is the adjusted odds ratio of stroke (subtypes) following the use of SGLT2i during the certain period of follow-up. Stroke is defined as the AE newly diagnosed and reported.
Main Predictor/Independent Variable and how it will be categorized/defined for your study:
The exposure to SGLT2i (here canagliflozin) as treatment arm.
We also include sex, age, ethnicity, and BMI as mandatory variables.
Other Variables of Interest that will be used in your analysis and how they will be categorized/defined for your study:
In addition, we include the following variables into models if they are available in most of the trials: history of smoking, dyslipidemia, hypertension, use of antithrombosis or anticoagulants, use of other types of anti-diabetic drug, use of diuretics, history of cardiovascular diseases, history of cerebrovascular diseases, amount of urine, and laboratory findings at baseline (serum creatinine, HbA1c, blood hematocrit, hemoglobin, plasma BNP, etc).
Statistical Analysis Plan:
We will first summarize subtype-wise stroke adverse events (e.g., ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke) separately in order to calculate unadjusted odds ratio for the incidence of each stroke subtype during the certain follow-up period (developed or not: binary), in each trial included. Then adjusted odds ratio will be calculated as a fixed effect in multi-level logistic regression analysis, where each trial is incorporated as random effect.
In addition, if we could use the period from medication start to the development of stroke, we will use Cox-proportional hazard test (including each trial as frailty term) to compare the hazard to develop each stroke subtype between the treatment arm and control arm.
All analysis will be conducted using R 3.5.1.
Narrative Summary:
Volume depletion as an adverse event caused by sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) due to their diuretic effect, may raise the concern about the risk of lacunar stroke; however, earlier RCTs or meta-analysis reported no significant increase in the incidence of stroke without clearly distinguishing stroke subtypes. Based on the pharmacovigilance database from Japan, we had previously proposed the hypothesis that SGLT2i may affect the risk of stroke differently depending on its subtype: increasing the risk of ischemic stroke but decreasing the risk of hemorrhagic stroke. In this project, we aim to validate our hypothesis.
