| Results |
Bodyweight decreased in the dapagliflozin group, but the changes in SMM were not significant between the groups, thereby elevating the ratio of SMM-to-bodyweight in the dapagliflozin group. Myostatin levels were significantly decreased, and irisin levels showed a nearly significant reduction in the dapagliflozin group compared with the control group, whereas FGF21 levels did not change significantly from baseline to the end of the intervention in both groups. |

| Baseline Characteristics |
The characteristics at baseline were balanced between the dapagliflozin (sex: 11/16, age:58.4[13.0], HbA1c:7.5[0.8]) and control groups(sex: 14/13, age:60.7[11.9], HbA1c:7.4[0.9]). |
| Participant flow |
A total of 60 patients were screened, and 54 were randomly assigned to recieve either dapagliflozin in addition to conventional treatment (dapagliflozin group or conventional treatment witout dapagliflozion (control group; n=27 each). In the dapagliflozion arm, 26 patients completed the study, with one dropping out because of study medication-related comlications. In the control arm, 24 patients comleted the study, with one withdrawing and two having a scheduling conflict. |
| Adverse events |
Five adverse events were reported by two patients after randomization. No patient had a serious adverse event requiring hospitalization. One patient in the dapagliflozin group developed dehydration within 1 day of initiation of the drug. The drug was discontinued, and the symptoms improved. One patient in the control group developed hunger, dizziness and cramps within 1 day of initiation of the drug, and finger tumor deterioration within 20 weeks of initiation of the drug. |
| Outcome measures |
Bodyweight decreased in the dapagliflozin group, but the changes in SMM were not significant between the groups, thereby elevating the ratio of SMM-to-bodyweight in the dapagliflozin group. Myostatin levels were significantly decreased, and irisin levels showed a nearly significant reduction in the dapagliflozin group compared with the control group, whereas FGF21 levels did not change significantly from baseline to the end of the intervention in both groups. |
