Abstract

The PREDIAN trial investigated the renoprotective effects of pentoxifylline, in addition to renin-angiotensin system blockade, in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease. This promising approach resulted in a reduction in the rate of decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate and a significant decrease in albuminuria.
