ObjectiveSodium glucose cotransporter type 2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) are beneficial for cardiorenal outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), heart failure (HF) or chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, whether or not the patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) have prognostic benefit from SGLT-2i treatment has not been fully studied. The purpose of this meta−analysis is to determine the prognostic benefit of SGLT-2i administration in CAD patients.MethodsWe searched the PubMed, Embase and Cochrane Library from inception until October 15, 2021. We included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) reporting the effect of SGLT-2i on major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE), hospitalization for heart failure (HHF), cardiovascular (CV) death and cardiorenal parameters in CAD patients. Hazard ratio (HR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) and mean difference (MD) from trials were meta-analyzed using fixed-effects models.ResultsNine trials enrolling 15,301 patients with CAD were included in the analyses. Overall, SGLT2i were associated with a reduced risk of MACE (HR: 0.84; 95% CI 0.74–0.95; I2 = 0%), HHF (HR: 0.69; 95% CI 0.58–0.83; I2 = 0%) and a composite of CV death or HHF (HR: 0.78; 95% CI 0.71–0.86; I2 = 37%) in CAD patients. Compared with control group, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) level decreased less in SGLT-2i group (mean difference [MD] = −3.60, 95% CI, −5.90 to −1.30, p = 0.002; I2 = 0%).ConclusionsSGLT-2i can improve cardiorenal outcomes in CAD patients. Further RCTs and real world studies are need to investigate the effect of SGLT2i on CAD patients.Systematic Review RegistrationPROSPERO, CRD42021258237.
