Empagliflozin may reduce kidney disease biomarkers but shows mixed effects on albumin in early diabetes

This study tested the SGLT2 inhibitor empagliflozin in 79 people with type 2 diabetes and early kidney disease over 24 weeks. While empagliflozin showed early improvements in albumin excretion at 4 and 12 weeks, the difference was not significant by 24 weeks. However, it did reduce certain hypoxia-related proteins in the blood that may contribute to kidney damage.
