Weekly shot could slow kidney damage in CKD patients
NCT ID NCT07206290
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a weekly injection called survodutide in 120 people with chronic kidney disease and high protein in their urine. The goal is to see if the drug can lower protein levels and protect kidney function over 36 weeks. Participants must be on stable standard treatments like ACE inhibitors or ARBs.
