360/461 (78.1%) participants had available biosamples. Dapagliflozin and dapagliflozin-saxagliptin, compared to placebo, increased hemoglobin by 5.7 g/L (95%CI 4.0, 7.3; p < 0.001) and 4.4 g/L (2.7, 6.0; p < 0.001) and reduced ferritin by 18.6% (8.7, 27.5; p < 0.001) and 18.4% (8.7, 27.1; p < 0.001), respectively. Dapagliflozin reduced urinary MCP-1/Cr by 29.0% (14.6, 41.0; p < 0.001) and urinary IL-6/Cr by 26.6% (9.1, 40.7; p = 0.005) with no changes in other markers.
