Albuminuria-Lowering Effect of Adding Semaglutide on Top of Empagliflozin in Individuals with Type 2 Diabetes: A Randomized and Placebo-Controlled Study
Diabetes Obes Metab. 2023; online ahead of print DOI: 10.1111/dom.15287
The proposed different mechanisms of SGLT2i and GLP-1RAs indicate that combination therapy may have additive or synergistic effects on the kidneys. This placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel-group study investigated the effect on albuminuria of adding semaglutide to ongoing treatment with empagliflozin compared with empagliflozin alone in 60 individuals with T2D and albuminuria.

Efficacy of Dapagliflozin by Baseline Diabetes Medications: A Prespecified Analysis From the DAPA-CKD Study
Diabetes Care. 2023; online ahead of print DOI: 10.2337/dc22-1514
Achieving optimal glucose control can be challenging in patients with T2D and CKD because impaired kidney function hampers the use of several oral or injectable glucose-lowering therapies (GLTs) and increases the likelihood of hypoglycaemia. This prespecified analysis from the DAPA-CKD trial evaluated whether the benefits of dapagliflozin in patients with T2D and CKD varied by background GLT number or class.
