Because of the lack of disease-modifying agents for CKD, treatment is aimed at minimizing the symptoms and complications arising from progressively diminished kidney function and treating the cause of impaired kidney function. This content specifically explores therapies that aim to halt the progressive decline in kidney function and lower the risk of adverse outcomes such as ESRD, cardiovascular, or renal death. A growing body of evidence shows that SGLT-2 inhibitors benefit CKD patients. This report examines the performance of key SGLT-2 inhibitor brands and remaining unmet need in a difficult-to-treat and highly prevalent disease.
