New drug combo aims to shield kidneys in type 1 diabetes

NCT ID NCT06072326

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This phase 2 trial tests whether combining dapagliflozin (a diabetes drug) with SC0062 (a blood vessel drug) can better protect kidneys in adults with type 1 diabetes and chronic kidney disease. Thirty-six participants will try each treatment alone and together in a cross-over design. The main goal is to see if the combo reduces protein in urine, a sign of kidney damage.
