NOX-E36 in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Albuminuria

Primary objective:

- To characterize the effects of 12 weeks treatment with study drug on albumin-creatinine ratio (ACR) in patients with type 2 diabetes and albuminuria

Secondary objectives:

* To characterize the effect of study drug on glycosylated hemoglobin fraction (HbA1c) * To evaluate the effect of study drug on markers of glycemic disorders, systemic inflammation, renal and liver disease and cardiovascular function * To assess the safety and tolerability of study drug * To determine the population pharmacokinetics (PK) of study drug

Key information

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Type 2 diabetes mellitus according to American Diabetes Association (ADA) definition
  • Age ≥ 18
  • HbA1c between 6.0% and 10.5%, inclusive
  • ACR > 100 mg/g calculated 3 times in first morning void urine, at least 2 of the measurements > 100 mg/g
  • Patients on stable (unchanged medication for at least 3 months) treatment to control hypertension, hyperglycemia and (if applicable) dyslipidemia
  • Stable treatment with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) and/or Angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) (renin-angiotensin system [RAS] blockade)
  • Willing and able to understand and sign an approved Informed Consent form
  • Men must agree to follow accepted birth control methods during treatment and for 3 months after completion of treatment. Women must be of non-childbearing potential.

Exclusion criteria

  • Type 1 diabetes mellitus
  • Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) ≤25 mL/min/1.73m2 (calculated by the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration [CKD-EPI] formula)
  • Recent cardiovascular events (3 months)
  • Uncontrolled hypertension (upper limits 180/110 mmHg)
  • Dialysis and/or acute kidney injury within 3 months before screening
  • Significant edema, infectious diseases, leg ulcers
  • Severe concurrent disease which, in the judgment of the investigator, would interfere significantly with the assessments of safety and efficacy during this study
  • Treatment with any other investigational agent, or participation in another clinical study within 90 days prior to baseline visit
  • Patient with known infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C
  • In the judgment of the clinical investigator, clinically significant abnormal laboratory values at the screening visit
  • Use of thiazolidinedione class drugs, immune suppressants, steroid therapy (except for topical use or inhalation), chronic use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAIDs), cyclooxygenase type 2 (COX-2) inhibitors, two or more diuretic drugs and/or aliskiren
  • In the judgment of the clinical investigator, patients who are likely to be non-compliant or uncooperative during the study.
  • Previous participation in this study.

Treatment and study plan

NOX-E36

Drug

0.5 mg/kg study drug or placebo as SC injections twice a week

Primary outcomes

  1. Effect of NOX-E36 on albuminuria as measured by ACR (albumin to creatinine ratio; mg/g)

    Time frame: Change versus baseline after 12 weeks treatment

    ACR calculated in first morning void urine; comparison of patients treated with NOX-E36 versus placebo

Secondary outcomes

  1. Effect of NOX-E36 on hsCRP

    Time frame: Change versus baseline after 12 weeks treatment

    Comparison of patients treated with NOX-E36 versus placebo

  2. Effect of NOX-E36 on HbA1C

    Time frame: Change versus baseline after 12 weeks treatment

    Comparison of patients treated with NOX-E36 versus placebo

  3. Effect of NOX-E36 on HOMA-IR

    Time frame: Change versus baseline after 12 weeks treatment

    Comparison of patients treated with NOX-E36 versus placebo

  4. Effect of NOX-E36 on eGFR

    Time frame: Change versus baseline after 12 weeks treatment

    eGFR will be calculated by the CKD-EPI equation using creatinine and cystatin C

    Comparison of patients treated with NOX-E36 versus placebo
