Randomized Study Comparing Metabolic Surgery With Intensive Medical Therapy to Treat Diabetic Kidney Disease

60 patients around the world
Available in Brazil
This will be an open-label, randomized trial involving sixty (60) patients with DKD and obesity who will undergo RYGB (intervention arm) or receive BMT (control arm). Thirty (30) obese patients with DKD will undergo gastric bypass. Patients will also receive standard of care medical therapy for DKD (ACEI or ARB + SGLT2i) and T2DM (metformin, glitazones, incretin therapy - DPP4 inhibitor and GLP-1 analogs - and insulin, if necessary). Other comorbidities, such as hypertension and dyslipidemia, will be treated according to the latest recommendations of the ADA. The surgical procedure will consist of a laparoscopic surgery performed by an experienced surgeon (approximately 6000 bariatric surgeries), who is accredited as surgeon of excellence by the Brazilian Society of Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery and Surgical Review and Surgical Review Corporation program since 2009. Thirty (30) obese patients with DKD will undergo best medical treatment for DKD (ACEI or ARB + SGLT2i) and T2DM (metformin, glitazones, incretin therapy - DPP4 inhibitor and GLP-1 analogs - and insulin, if necessary). Other comorbidities, such as hypertension and dyslipidemia, will be treated according to the latest recommendations of the ADA. Regarding medication therapy: Metformin will be maintained in the postoperative period while fasting glycemia is above 100 mg/dL unless contraindicated. Anti-antihypertensive drugs and medications for dyslipidemia will be maintained in the postoperative period, unless contraindicated. Micronutrient supplementation (vitamins and mineral salts) will be prescribed to all patients undergoing metabolic surgery. Patients allocated to the control group will receive the same supplementation if necessary.
