Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To assess by intervention trial whether ezetimibe reduces albuminuria and kidney parenchymal triglyceride fraction in individuals with type 2 diabetes and non-severe diabetic kidney disease. ;Secondary Objective: To compare cross-sectionally the fractions of kidney lipid between controls, individuals with type 2 diabetes and no diabetic kidney disease and individuals with type 2 diabetes and non-severe diabetic kidney disease. ;Primary end point(s): Primary endpoint in intervention trial: • Urinary albumin creatinine ratio Primary endpoint in cross-sectional part of study: • Kidney parenchymal triglyceride fraction (estimated by magnetic resonance spectroscopy) ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: For intervention trial: At baseline (randomization visit) and at end of treatment of 16 weeks For cross-sectional part of study: At baseline

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: For intervention trial: At baseline (randomization visit) and at end of treatment of 16 weeks For cross-sectional part of study: At baseline;Secondary end point(s): Secondary endpoints in intervention trial: • Kidney parenchymal triglyceride fraction (estimated by magnetic resonance spectroscopy) • MR estimate (by Dixon’s method) of kidney parenchymal fat fraction Secondary endpoints in cross-sectional part of study • MR estimate (by Dixon’s method) of kidney parenchymal fat fraction
