Emerging therapies for diabetic kidney disease: beyond SGLT2 inhibitors.
Key takeaways
A review of the next wave of drugs for kidney disease caused by diabetes, looking past the two treatments already in wide use: blood pressure drugs that act on the renin-angiotensin system, and SGLT2 inhibitors. Even with both, many people keep losing kidney function, and this article covers the new drugs being built to close that gap. It is a summary of the field written by experts, not a trial. There are no new results in it.
