Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-Prolyl-Hydroxylase and Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors for Low-Risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome-Related Anemia in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease: A Report of Three Cases
Although daprodustat, a hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor, and dapagliflozin, a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor, have been approved for the treatment of renal anemia in Japan, their efficacy and safety for patients aged 80 years or older with low-risk myelodysplastic syn...

Sumario: | Although daprodustat, a hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor, and dapagliflozin, a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor, have been approved for the treatment of renal anemia in Japan, their efficacy and safety for patients aged 80 years or older with low-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)-related anemia have not been demonstrated. Our case series comprised two men and one woman aged >80 years with low-risk MDS-related anemia and diabetic mellitus (DM)-related chronic kidney disease who were dependent on red blood cell transfusions and in whom erythropoiesis-stimulating agents had been insufficient. All three patients received daprodustat and additional dapagliflozin achieved red blood cell transfusion independence and were followed up for >6 months. Daily oral daprodustat was well tolerated. There were no fatalities or progression to acute myeloid leukemia during the >6-month follow-up after daprodustat initiation. On the basis of these outcomes, we consider 24 mg of daprodustat combined with 10 mg of dapagliflozin daily an effective form of treatment for low-risk MDS-related anemia. Further studies are required to clarify the synergistic effects of daprodustat and dapagliflozin, which correct chronic kidney disease-related anemia by promoting endogenous erythropoietin production and normalizing iron metabolism to manage low-risk MDS in the long term. |
