Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Primary Objectives: To study podocyte specific injury markers (podocyte specific proteins, PSP) nephrin, podocalyxin and Wilms'Tumor (WT-1) protein in exosomes urine from African American Veterans with albuminuric stage 2 and 3 chronic diabetic kidney disease (DKD), using Empagliflozin or Finerenone or combination therapy. Secondary Objectives: (1). Correlate changes in exosome-based PSP with standardized biomarkers of kidney injury including urine albumin/creatinine ratio (ACR) and estimated GFR. (2) with systemic inflammatory markers (focusing on vascular and endothelial function) that are already established such as interleukins (IL1, IL6, IL-12), hs-CRP and (3) arterial stiffness measures and with (4) APOL1 mRNA expression levels in peripheral blood derived mononuclear cells (MNC).
