    Background Heart failure (HF) is a common disease with high mortality and morbidity especially in combination with severe chronic kidney disease (CKD). Virtually all major studies in HF exclude patients with  severe CKD. Eplerenone is one of the main therapies in HF.Aim The overall aim is to build a research network to study HF therapies in patients with HF in combination with severe CKD. The main trial is a randomized open label trial of eplerenone vs usual care. The pilot study will lay the foundation for the first trial and to evaluate the feasibility, safety and efficacy of using eplerenone in patients with HF with reduced ejection fraction (EF) in combination with severe CKD.MethodsInclusion and exclusion criteria for both the main trial and pilot study:HF with EF≤40% in combination with estimated glomerular filtration rate &lt
    30 ml/min/1.73mPatients with ongoing or planned dialysis, hypotension and hyperkalemia will be excludedDesignMain trial - Open label randomized study with major adverse renal and cardiac events as primary endpointPilot study - N=40. Open label ABA-design (baseline, intervention, withdrawal). Two observational periods are chosen as the patient group has a high risk of clinical events. 12 week observation, 12 week treatment and 12 week washout. Feasibility and safety are the key endpoints and efficacy endpoints are exploratory.The pilot study will help to develop eCRF, safety protocols and help to estimate recruitment potential for the main trial.

    The aim  is to analyze the effect of SGLT-2 inhibitors on cardiovascular outcomes for patients on dialysis.Patients on dialysis have a high risk of cardiovascular disease and death. Previous randomized controlled studies (RCT) on SGLT-2-inhibitors have shown decreased risk of cardiovascular outcomes. The DAPA-CKD study included patients with eGFR 25 to 75 ml/min/1.73 m2 and microalbuminuria and showed 30 % decreased risk of death from cardiovascular causes or hospitalization for heart failure. However, patients on dialysis have been excluded from all previous RCT.We plan to include patients on dialysis in Sweden (age &gt
    50 years or 18-49 years and diabetes mellitus type 2 or a cardiovascular disease) and to randomize to SGLT-2 inhibitors or not. The primary outcome will be a composite of major cardiovascular events (cardiovascular mortality, myocardial infarction, hospitalization for heart failure and stroke).The steering committee of the Swedish National Nephrology Research group and patient representatives will be involved early. Through all members of the research group we will be able to reach out to almost all nephrology clinics.During the planning phase a litterature review, applications to CTIS, and feasibility surveys will be performed. A statistician will be involved in the detailed study plan. We aim to plan the study during 2025 and 2026 and then start inclusion.
