Summary

An investigator initiated pilot trial: two arm, double blind, placebo controlled, randomized, parallel group of approximately 750 patients with chronic kidney disease, and who have evidence of overt proteinuria, will be treated with micro-particle curcumin versus placebo over 24 weeks from start of the investigational medication date (approximately 6 months) to test whether curcumin can slow chronic kidney disease progression in patients. Three 30 mg capsules of micro-particle curcumin will be self-administered once daily in the morning to determine the the safety and efficacy of curcumin relative to placebo in reducing albuminuria and slowing the loss of eGFR.
