New hope for kidney patients: diabetes drugs tested to fight nephrotic syndrome

NCT ID NCT07214818

First seen Oct 31, 2025 · Last updated Jun 11, 2026 · Updated 28 times

Summary

This study tests whether two diabetes drugs (dapagliflozin and empagliflozin) can help adults with nephrotic syndrome, a kidney condition that causes protein leakage and swelling. About 75 participants will receive either one of these drugs plus standard care, or standard care alone, for 6 months. The goal is to see if these drugs reduce protein in urine, maintain remission, and prevent relapse, while monitoring kidney function and side effects.
