Approved drug PDB Ligand
dapagliflozin is an approved drug (EMA (2012), FDA (2014))
Compound class: Synthetic organic
Comment: Dapagliflozin is a derivative of naturally occurring dihydrocholine glucoside. It acts as a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitor. In addition to clinical efficacy in type 2 diabetes, evidence from clinical trial suggests that dapagliflozin is of benefit in treating heart failure with or without type 2 diabetes as a comorbidity [7].

SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19: Based on the cardio- and renoprotective benefits of dapagliflozin in T2DM patients, it was evaluated vs. placebo in 1250 hospitalised COVID-19 patients (NCT04350593) [4], to determine if it would provide similar protection from organ damage caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection. The drug treatment effected a non-significant reduction in the risk of organ failure or death [5]. Subsequent to this finding, another approved SGLT2 inhibitor empagliflozin was added to the RECOVERY trial.
