New hope for slowing kidney disease progression

NCT ID NCT06391450

Summary

This study is testing whether a diabetes drug called empagliflozin is safe and can help slow the progression of a genetic kidney disease called ADPKD. It involves 44 adults with rapidly progressing disease, some of whom are already taking the standard medication. Researchers will measure changes in kidney size and function over 18 months to see if empagliflozin provides additional benefit.
