New drug combo aims to protect kidneys in diabetes
NCT ID NCT07271186
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Sep 11, 2026 · Updated 5 times
Summary
This Phase 2 trial tests two experimental drugs, ALN-ANG3 and evinacumab, in 270 people with diabetic kidney disease. The drugs block a protein called ANGPTL3 to lower blood fats. Researchers will measure changes in urine protein and kidney function over time to see if the drugs are safe and effective.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- ALN-ANG3 and evinacumab (two experimental drugs that block a protein called ANGPTL3 to lower fats in the blood)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could point toward a new treatment option to slow kidney damage in people with diabetic kidney disease.
- What could go wrong
- This is a Phase 2 trial with only 270 participants, so results are still early. The drugs may not improve kidney function or could cause unexpected side effects.
