Study Arms (2)
Lokelma
ACTIVE COMPARATORSodium zirconium cyclosilicate Lokelma® 5 g, powder (Astra Zeneca) After initial dosing subjects will be instructed to take the study drug once daily in the morning, by oral administration after the powder has been dissolved in a glass of drinking water. Duration: 12 weeks
Placebo
PLACEBO COMPARATORMatching placebo (indistinguishable from the active comparator) After initial dosing subjects will be instructed to take the study drug once daily in the morning, by oral administration after the powder has been dissolved in a glass of drinking water. Duration: 12 weeks
Interventions
Sodium zirconium cyclosilicate (a hyperkalemia treatment)
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Provision of informed consent prior to any study specific procedures
- Female and/or male patients with type 2 diabetes aged 18-85 years
- Persistent macroalbuminuria (UACR ≥ 200 mg/g in at least two out of the three latest UACR measurements in subject history).
- Negative pregnancy test (urine or serum) for female subjects of childbearing potential.
- Female subjects must be 1 year post-menopausal, surgically sterile, or using an acceptable method of contraception (an acceptable method of contraception is defined as a barrier method in conjunction with a spermicide) for the duration of the study (from the time they sign consent) and for 3 months after the last dose of Lokelma/matching placebo to prevent pregnancy. In addition, oral contraceptives, approved contraceptive implant, long-term injectable contraception, intrauterine device, or tubal ligation are allowed. Oral contraception alone is not acceptable; additional barrier methods in conjunction with spermicide must be used.
You may not qualify if:
- Involvement in the planning and/or conduct of the study (applies to both Investigator staff and/or staff at the study site)
- Previous enrolment in the present study
- Use of potassium-lowering agent (loop-diuretics not included)
- Known hypersensitivity to Lokelma
- Known history of drug or alcohol abuse within 1 year of screening
- Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) \<15 ml/min/1.73 m2 (calculated by CKD-EPI formula).
- History of long QT syndrome.
- For women only - currently pregnant (confirmed with positive pregnancy test) or breast feeding.
