Summary
Activation of renin-angiotensin plays a crucial role diabetic nephropathy. Angiotensin
converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) and Angiotensin I receptor blocker (ARB) has been shown
renoprotection whether it was used alone or in combination. Aliskiren is a direct renin
inhibitor (DRI) that has shown renal benefits and safety when combined with ARB. However, to
date, the safety of add on aliskiren to the combination treatment of ACEI and ARB in
diabetic nephropathy patients remains to elucidate.
Clinical Details
Official title: Safety of Add on Aliskiren to ACEI and ARB Treatment in Type 2 Diabetes With Nephropathy
Study design: Treatment, Randomized, Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator), Placebo Control, Parallel Assignment, Safety Study
Primary outcome: Assess short-term safety of the combination of aliskiren 300 mg/valsartan 160 mg /enalapril 20 mg in patients with diabetic nephropathy
Secondary outcome: Reduction of systolic blood pressureReduction of proteinuria Change in GFR/mo Change of Serum prorenin level compare to baseline Change of Urinary TGFb1 compare to baseline
