New drug tested to protect kidneys from scarring disease

NCT ID NCT05834738

Summary

This study tested whether adding the drug atrasentan helps control IgA nephropathy, a kidney disease that causes scarring, in patients already taking standard protective medications. Fifty-four adults with the disease tried atrasentan and a placebo in different orders to see which better reduced protein in their urine, a key sign of kidney damage. The main goal was to see if atrasentan provided extra benefit on top of their current treatment over 12-week periods.
