Summary

Proteinuria is an early marker of diabetic kidney disease and predicts progression to chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular complications. ARBs are proven to reduce proteinuria and slow renal damage, even in normotensive diabetic patients. SGLT2 inhibitors have recently shown additional reno-protective effects, including further reduction in proteinuria and slowing of disease progression. Combining ARBs with SGLT2 inhibitors may provide additive or synergistic benefits. However, there is limited data comparing ARBs alone versus the combination in normotensive diabetic patients. This study will provide evidence on the most effective strategy to reduce proteinuria, potentially lowering morbidity and preventing complications in this population
