Impact of Hypoxia-Inducible Factor Prolyl Hydroxylase Inhibitor on Renal Function in Patient with Heart Failure
Hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase (HIF-PH) inhibitor is a recently introduced oral agent to treat renal anemia, but its clinical implications on renal functioning in patients with heart failure remains unknown. We studied an 81-year-old man with heart failure with mildly reduced ejection f...

description | Hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase (HIF-PH) inhibitor is a recently introduced oral agent to treat renal anemia, but its clinical implications on renal functioning in patients with heart failure remains unknown. We studied an 81-year-old man with heart failure with mildly reduced ejection fraction, chronic kidney disease, and renal anemia. The seven-month HIF-PH inhibitor daprodustat treatment improved the hemoglobin level from 7.4 g/dL to 11.8 g/dL and estimated glomerular filtration ratio from 24 mL/min/1.73 m<sup>2</sup> to 35 mL/min/1.73 m<sup>2</sup> without any complications, including thromboembolic events. HIF-PH inhibitor might be a promising therapeutic tool to improve renal anemia and renal function in patients with heart failure, although large-scale studies are warranted to validate our findings. |
