Summary

This study tested whether two medications, finerenone and empagliflozin, taken alone or together, could slow kidney function loss in people at high risk for chronic kidney disease after having a kidney removed due to cancer. Ten participants took the drugs daily for one year and had regular checkups. The study was stopped early, so results are limited.
