Summary

This study tested whether retatrutide, a medication being studied for weight loss, can help preserve kidney function in 146 adults who are overweight or obese and have chronic kidney disease (with or without type 2 diabetes). Participants received the drug or a placebo for about 31 weeks. The main goal was to measure changes in how well the kidneys filter blood. This is not a cure, but aims to control disease and prevent further kidney decline.
