Date of preparation: January 2015
Objectives and background for this learning resource
Introduction:
This learning resource has been developed as part of a medical education initiative supported by
Janssen. The content of this slide kit has been developed by an advisory board of renal physicians, GPs
and specialist nurses. The panel of experts includes members of the British Renal Society Chronic Kidney
Disease (CKD) Strategy Group. Bedrock Healthcare, a medical communications agency, has provided
editorial support in developing the content; Janssen has reviewed the content for technical accuracy.
Educational objectives:
•
To provide clear and applicable clinical guidance on chronic kidney disease (CKD) in people with type
2 diabetes to primary care healthcare professionals
•
To advise primary healthcare professionals on what people with diabetes need to know about their
own condition with relation to CKD
Usability objectives:
•
To provide essential, relevant and up to date information in concise presentations
•
To enable primary healthcare professionals to locate, select and use the content of the learning
resource, as appropriate to their needs
•
To enable secondary care experts in CKD to refer their primary care colleagues to the resource

Section F – 3 key learning objectives
• Once diabetic kidney disease has developed, early optimal management can
reduce disease progression
• ACE inhibitors and ARBs improve outcomes
• Presence of diabetic kidney disease implies generalised vascular disease
which requires holistic management
4
ACE inhibitors or ARBs for blood pressure
management
• Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and angiotensin-receptor
blockers (ARBs) are both renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS)
antagonists1
• Only one type of RAAS agonist should be offered to people with CKD
– Combined therapy of ACE inhibitors and ARBs is not recommended1

Hypoglycaemia is a risk for patients with type 2 diabetes
and CKD when taking oral glucose control therapies
• Progressive CKD increases the risk
of hypoglycaemia1,2
• With impaired kidney function, the
half-life of insulin is prolonged1,3
• Risk of ‘hypos’ may be more difficult
to predict in patients with CKD*
• Symptoms of ‘hypos’ may be
reduced in patients with CKD*
Always ask about
hypoglycaemia*
• Assess ‘risk and treatment’
of hypoglycaemia1,2
• More tailored dosing is required1
• Patients need to be monitored
more frequently1
Perform frequent therapy
reviews, especially if patient
commences dialysis*

Importance of testing for anaemia and monitoring
HbA1c levels carefully
• People with CKD are often anaemic, particularly if eGFR <45ml/min/1.73 m2
(GFR category G3b, G4 or G5)1
• Patients with anaemia (defined as Hb <110g/L):1,2
– Have shortened red blood cell (RBC) lifespan (~ 90 days), which reduces
HbA1c levels3
– Have iron deficiency, which increases HbA1c (false high)4
– Are often receiving IV iron therapy or erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESA),
both of which can reduce HbA1c in patients with diabetes and CKD5
• It is important to test for anaemia in patients with CKD and monitor HbA1c
levels carefully

Insulin in CKD
• Insulin resistance and reduced clearance of insulin can lead to swings in
glycaemic levels1
• Insulin therapy requirements may reduce as kidney function declines due to:
– The effect of reduced kidney function on insulin clearance2,3
– Reduction of gluconeogenesis in the kidney3
– Uraemia-induced anorexia and weight loss3
• There are no evidence-based guidelines or recommendations about which
types of insulin to use or avoid depending on the severity of CKD2
– Some studies suggest avoiding long-acting insulin, whereas others support its use2
• Frequent monitoring is advised2,4

Dialysis can effect glycaemic control and the risk of
hypoglycaemic events
• Haemodialysis can affect glycaemic control in the following ways:1
– Improves insulin sensitivity
– Improves insulin clearance
• Insulin requirements may be 25% lower the day after dialysis compared with
the day before.1 Mean blood glucose is lower on dialysis days2
• Inadequate gastrointestinal glucose absorption (due to gastroparesis) can
also negatively influence glycaemic control in patients with diabetes
undergoing dialysis3
• Therefore in patients receiving dialysis there is a clear need to review:
– HbA1c trends4
– Current medication4
– HbA1c levels, with regards to reliability of results5

ANY of the following apply:1
– There is no significant or progressive retinopathy1
– Blood pressure is particularly high or resistant to treatment1
– The person previously had a documented ACR <3mg/mmol and develops heavy
proteinuria (ACR >100 mg/mmol)1
– Significant haematuria is present1 (exclude infection)
– The eGFR has worsened rapidly1 (≥25% after starting ACEI or 15ml/min/1.73m²
within 12 months2)
– The person is systemically ill1 (exclude acute kidney injury)

Prescribing information
INVOKANA® ▼ film-coated tablets PRESCRIBING INFORMATION. ACTIVE
INGREDIENT(S): Canagliflozin hemihydrate, equivalent to 100 mg or 300 mg
canagliflozin. Please refer to Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC)
before prescribing. INDICATION(S): In adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus to
improve glycaemic control as: monotherapy when diet and exercise alone do
not provide adequate glycaemic control and use of metformin considered
inappropriate; add-on therapy with other glucose-lowering medicinal products
including insulin, when these, together with diet and exercise, do not provide
adequate
glycaemic
control.
DOSAGE
&
ADMINISTRATION:
Adults: recommended starting dose: 100 mg once daily. In patients tolerating
this dose and with eGFR ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 needing tighter glycaemic
control, dose can be increased to 300 mg once daily. Caution increasing dose
in patients ≥ 75 years old, with known cardiovascular disease or for whom
initial canagliflozin-induced diuresis is a risk. Correct volume depletion prior to
initiation. When add-on, consider lower dose of insulin or insulin secretagogue
to reduce risk of hypoglycaemia. Children: no data available. Elderly: consider
renal function and risk of volume depletion. Renal impairment: not to be
initiated with eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2. If eGFR falls below this value during
treatment, adjust or maintain dose at 100 mg once daily. Discontinue if eGFR
persistently < 45 mL/min/1.73 m2. Not for use in end stage renal disease or
patients on dialysis. Hepatic impairment: mild or moderate hepatic impairment:
no dose adjustment. Severe hepatic impairment: not studied, not
recommended. CONTRAINDICATIONS: Hypersensitivity to active substance
or any excipient.SPECIAL WARNINGS & PRECAUTIONS: Not studied in
patients with type 1 diabetes. Not to be used for treatment of diabetic
ketoacidosis. Renal impairment: eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2: higher
incidence of ADRs associated with volume depletion particularly with 300 mg
dose; more events of elevated potassium; greater increases in serum
creatinine and BUN; limit dose to 100 mg once daily and discontinue when
eGFR < 45 mL/min/1.73 m2. Not studied in severe renal impairment. Monitor
renal function prior to initiation and at least annually. Volume
depletion: caution in patients for whom a canagliflozin-induced drop in blood
pressure is a risk (eg, known cardiovascular disease, eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73
m2, anti-hypertensive therapy with history of hypotension, on diuretics or
elderly people). Not recommended with loop diuretics or volume depleted
patients. Monitor volume status and serum electrolytes. Elevated
haematocrit:caution. Genital mycotic infections: risk in male and female
patients, particularly in those with a history of GMI. Urine laboratory
assessment: glucose in urine due to mechanism of action.
Lactose intolerance: do not use in patients with galactose intolerance, Lapp
lactase deficiency or glucose-galactose malabsorption. SIDE EFFECTS: Very
common: hypoglycaemia in combination with insulin or sulphonylurea,
vulvovaginal candidiasis. Common: constipation, thirst, nausea, polyuria or
pollakiuria, urinary tract infection, balanitis or balanoposthitis, dyslipidemia,
hematocrit increased.Uncommon: dehydration, postural dizziness, syncope,
hypotension, orthostatic hypotension, rash, urticaria, bone fracture, blood
creatinine increased, blood urea increased, blood potassium increased, blood
phosphate increased.Refer to SmPC for other side effects. PREGNANCY:
No human data. Not recommended. LACTATION: Unknown if excreted in
human
milk.
Should
not
be
used
during
breast-feeding.
INTERACTIONS: Diuretics: may increase risk of dehydration and
hypotension. Insulin and insulin secretagogues: risk of hypoglycaemia;
consider lower dose of insulin or insulin secretagogue. Effects of other
medicines on Invokana: Enzyme inducers (eg, St. John’s wort, rifampicin,
barbiturates, phenytoin, carbamazepine, ritonavir, efavirenz) may decrease
exposure of canagliflozin; monitor glycaemic control. Consider dose increase
to 300 mg if administered with UGT enzyme inducer. Cholestyramine may
reduce canagliflozin exposure; take canagliflozin at least 1 hour before or 4-6
hours after a bile acid sequestrant. Effects of Invokana on other medicines:
Monitor patients on digoxin, other cardiac glycosides, dabigatran. Inhibition of
Breast Cancer Resistance Protein cannot be excluded; possible increased
exposure of drugs transported by BCRP (eg, rosuvastatin and some anticancer agents). Refer to SmPC for full details of interactions. LEGAL
