JARDIANCE under the microscope: Real-World safety check for korean kidney patients
NCT ID NCT06287073
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This completed study looked at the safety of the diabetes drug JARDIANCE (empagliflozin) in 299 Korean adults with chronic kidney disease. Researchers tracked side effects and measured changes in a key kidney health marker (urine albumin-creatinine ratio) after 12 and 24 weeks of treatment. The goal was to see how well the drug works and how safe it is in routine medical practice.
