Reducing Residual Albuminuria in Subjects With Diabetes and Nephropathy With Atrasentan

• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2012-07-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

Prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, 12-week, multicenter study. The objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of once daily administration of atrasentan tablets compared to placebo in reducing residual albuminuria in Japanese Type 2 diabetic patients with nephropathy who are treated with the maximum tolerated labeled dose for hypertension of a RAS (renin angiotensin system) inhibitor.

• Phase: Phase 2
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No

Details

• Lead Sponsor: AbbVie (prior sponsor, Abbott)
• Treatments: Atrasentan; Endothelin Receptor Antagonists
