摘要

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an emerging concern in the aging population of people living with HIV, especially in those with history of nephrotoxic antiretroviral therapy. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have shown renoprotective effects in various clinical settings, but their utility in patients with antiretroviral-induced kidney impairment remains unexplored. We report the case of a 59-year-old man with well-controlled HIV infection who developed progressive decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR, mL/min/1.73 m2) over 15 years of taking antiretroviral therapy (ΔeGFR − 2.3 mL/min/1.73 m2 per year), including 8 years of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) intake. After discontinuation of TDF and its successor drug, the eGFR stabilized at approximately 52 for approximately 4 years. The SGLT2 inhibitor dapagliflozin was started to prevent renal decline. Subsequently, the eGFR increased to 57.3 after 3 months and 60.2 after 6 months, then was maintained at approximately 57 thereafter. After dapagliflozin initiation, the overall eGFR slope was + 1.2 mL/min/1.73 m2 per year. To the best of our knowledge, this was the first report demonstrating improvement in eGFR slope after SGLT2 inhibitor use in a patient with antiretroviral-associated renal impairment. This highlighted the potential role of SGLT2 inhibitors in mitigating CKD progression in people living with HIV.
