Diabetic Kidney Disease, Diabetic Nephropathy, Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of FG-3019 on diabetic kidney disease or diabetic nephropathy.
Detailed description
The primary objective of this study is to assess the effect of FG-3019 on proteinuria as assessed by urinary albumin/creatinine ratio (ACR).
Interventions
3 mg/kg FG-3019 IV every 2 weeks for 22 weeks
Placebo IV every 2 weeks for 22 weeks
