Renal Efficacy and Safety of the Novel Oral Small-Molecule GLP-1RA HRS-7535 Evaluated in Participants With Chronic Kidney Disease

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group and event-driven phase III clinical trial. The aim of this trial is to confirm the superiority of HRS-7535 over placebo in reducing the risks of renal outcomes and cardiovascular death among participants with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on the basis of standard of care
