Key Points: The SAPPHIRE trial was designed to assess albuminuria-lowering effects of the urate transporter 1 inhibitor verinurad combined with allopurinol in patients with CKD. Verinurad 3, 7.5, and 12 mg in combination with allopurinol 300 mg did not reduce albuminuria during 34 weeks treatment compared with allopurinol alone or placebo.

The effectiveness of an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor or an angiotensin II receptor blocker for the reduction in urinary protein excretion and renoprotection in proteinuric chronic kidney disease patients is well known, and coadministration of and sodium-glucose cotransporter inhibitor and the mineralocorticoid receptor blocker eplerenone has recently demonstrated an additive albuminuria-lowering effect in chronic kidney disease patients. Proteinuria is also an independent predictor of end-stage renal disease in kidney transplant recipients.

Aim: To investigate whether combined treatment with empagliflozin (a sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor) and semaglutide (a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist) can reduce urinary albumin-creatinine ratio (UACR) compared to treatment with empagliflozin alone in individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and albuminuria.
Methods: We conducted a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel study including 60 individuals with T2D and albuminuria. All participants initiated open-label empagliflozin 25 mg once daily, on top of renin-angiotensin system inhibition, in a run-in period of 26 weeks.

Aim: To evaluate the albuminuria-lowering effect of dapagliflozin, exenatide, and the combination of dapagliflozin and exenatide in patients with type 2 diabetes and microalbuminuria or macroalbuminuria.
Methods: Participants with type 2 diabetes, an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of more than 30 ml/min/1.73m and an urinary albumin: creatinine ratio (UACR) of more than 3.
