Recruiting PHASE2 Chronic Kidney Disease(CKD)

New treatment option for Chronic Kidney Disease(CKD)

Official title Beneficial Effect of Amiloride on Progression of Chronic Kidney Disease

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06923709

What this study is testing

What is amiloride?

amiloride is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily, being studied as a potential treatment for chronic kidney disease(ckd).

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded crossover trial testing the effects of amiloride in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and proteinuria. In CKD with proteinuria, there is aberrant filtration of serine proteases and complement precursors into the tubular lumen.
  • Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
  • You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
