Conditions
Summary
This study is a multicenter, randomized controlled crossover trial aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of dapagliflozin in the treatment of hereditary kidney disease with proteinuria in children
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria5
- Confirmed diagnosis of hereditary kidney disease (identification of pathogenic genes through molecular genetic testing; for Alport syndrome, molecular diagnosis is not necessarily required if diagnosed based on clinical and pathological findings; for those with a clear family history and a high clinical suspicion of hereditary kidney disease).
- - hour urinary protein level > 0.2 g or urinary protein to creatinine ratio (UPCR) > 0.2 mg/mg.
- Calculate the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) using the Schwartz formula (36.5 * height in cm / serum creatinine in μmol/L), with eGFR ≥ 60 ml/min/1.73 m².
- Stable use of the basic treatment drug RAASi (including ACEI/ARB) for more than 4 weeks, and no dosage adjustment during the treatment period.
- Willingness to sign the informed consent form.
Exclusion Criteria15
- Treatment with hormones/immunosuppressive agents within the previous 4 weeks.
- Treatment with SGLT2 inhibitors within the previous 4 weeks.
- Comorbid diabetes.
- Uncontrolled urinary tract infection.
- Evidence of urinary tract obstruction such as dysuria.
- Blood pressure below the 5th percentile for the same gender, age, and height.
- Organ transplantation.
- Tumor.
- Presence of any of the following definite evidence of liver disease: ALT/AST reaching 2 times the normal value, hepatic encephalopathy, esophageal varices, or portal shunt surgery.
- Comorbid medical conditions that may affect drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion, including but not limited to any of the following: active inflammatory bowel disease within the past 6 months, history of major gastrointestinal surgery (such as gastrectomy, gastroenterostomy, intestinal resection), gastrointestinal ulcer, gastrointestinal or rectal bleeding within the past 6 months, pancreatic injury or pancreatitis within the past 6 months.
- Subjects at risk of dehydration or volume depletion, which may affect drug efficacy or safety.
- Participation in other drug trials within the previous 4 weeks.
- Blood loss exceeding 400 ml within the previous 8 weeks.
- Poor past medication compliance or unwillingness to complete the trial.
- Any other medical conditions that may place the patient at a higher risk due to participation in this study.

Interventions
①Dapagliflozin+Standard Treatment for 12 weeks. Dapagliflozin therapy (Farxiga®, 10 mg tablets) is administered orally once daily,with dose adjustment based on body weight: 5 mg/day for participants ≤30 kg; 5 mg/day initially (first week), then increased to 10 mg/day for participants \>30 kg Standard Treatment:standard renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitor (RAASi) therapy(The dosage will be maintained at the pre-enrollment level throughout the entire treatment period, with no adjustments made during therapy.),This combined therapy will be administered for 12 weeks. ② Washout period for 4 weeks Participants should maintenance RAASi therapy while discontinuing dapagliflozin. ③Standard Treatment alone for an additional 12 weeks. To ensure compliance, all participants are required to complete a daily medication log.If any adverse events (AEs) occur, appropriate clinical interventions will be promptly implemented
