Two analyses of the final US data from the EMPagliflozin compaRative effectIveness and SafEty (EMPRISE) real-world study show that Jardiance (empagliflozin) was associated with a reduction in risk of hospitalization for heart failure compared with two other classes of glucose-lowering therapies in adults with type 2 diabetes in routine care.

Relative risk reductions were 50% versus dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors and 30% versus glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists.

The results were presented on behalf of German family-owned Boehringer Ingelheim and US pharma major Eli Lilly (NYSE: LLY) at the American Diabetes Association Scientific Sessions 2022 in New Orleans.
