Summary
This trial is testing a medication called retatrutide to see if it can help improve kidney function. The study focuses on people who are overweight or obese and have chronic kidney disease, with or without Type 2 Diabetes. The goal is to find out if this medication can make their kidneys work better.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with overweight or obesity and chronic kidney disease, with or without Type 2 Diabetes. Participants must have a BMI ≥27 kg/m², stable treatment for at least 90 days, and specific HbA1c levels depending on their diabetes status. Exclusions include recent significant weight change, certain diabetes medications within the last 90 days, and a history of cancer in the past five years.
What is being tested?
The study tests Retatrutide (LY3437943) to see its effects on kidney function in people who are overweight or obese with chronic kidney disease. Some participants will receive LY3437943 while others will get a placebo (a substance with no active drug). The trial lasts approximately 31 weeks.
What are the potential side effects?
While not specified here, common side effects from similar drugs may include gastrointestinal symptoms like nausea or vomiting, potential allergic reactions, injection site reactions if applicable, and possibly changes in blood sugar levels.

Other Research
GLP-1 receptor agonists, such as liraglutide, exenatide, and dulaglutide, mimic the incretin hormone GLP-1, which is released after eating. These medications enhance glucose-dependent insulin secretion, delay gastric emptying, regulate postprandial glucagon, and reduce food intake, leading to improved glycemic control and weight management.
For Type 2 Diabetes patients, these mechanisms are crucial as they help in maintaining blood glucose levels, reducing the risk of cardiovascular events, and potentially improving renal function by reducing inflammation and improving metabolic parameters.
