Study protocol for a randomized single-center cross-over study: Dapagliflozin treatment in recurring kidney stone patients

Dapagliflozin's pleiotropic effects may provide a novel prophylactic treatment option for urolithiasis. This study aims to evaluate potential treatment effects in a prospective RCT and elucidate potential pathophysiological pathways through in-depth metabolomics analyses. SGLT-2 inhibitors have the potential to transform the landscape of urolithiasis treatment, reduce the healthcare burden on individuals and the system, and significantly improve patient quality of life.

Abstract

Dapagliflozin's pleiotropic effects may provide a novel prophylactic treatment option for urolithiasis. This study aims to evaluate potential treatment effects in a prospective RCT and elucidate potential pathophysiological pathways through in-depth metabolomics analyses. SGLT-2 inhibitors have the potential to transform the landscape of urolithiasis treatment, reduce the healthcare burden on individuals and the system, and significantly improve patient quality of life.
