Brief Summary
This study assesses the effects of bardoxolone methyl (RTA 402) in patients with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease.
Detailed Description
Bardoxolone methyl (RTA 402) is an Antioxidant Inflammation Modulator (AIM) that is undergoing clinical testing in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and cancer. Bardoxolone methyl and other AIMs inhibit im...
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- Male or female patient, at least 18 years of age with known type 2 diabetes, diagnosis of type 2 diabetes should have been made at \> 30 years of age (if diabetes developed at a younger age, C-peptide level may be obtained to confirm diagnosis)
- The average of two eGFR values collected during screening must be within 20 - 45 mL/min/1.73m2, inclusive
- Patient must be receiving an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor and/or an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) for at least 3 months prior to screening, where the dose of the ACE inhibitor or the ARB is considered appropriate for that patient, and has been stable and maintained on that dose for at least 8 weeks prior to the Randomization visit
- For male and female subjects, agreement to use effective contraception during the entire study period and for at least 2 months after the last dose of study drug, unless documentation of infertility exists
- Women of child-bearing potential, she must have a negative serum pregnancy test at screening and a negative urine pregnancy test confirmed within 72 hours prior to the first dose of study medication
- Patient is willing and able to cooperate with all aspects of the protocol
- Patient is willing and able to give written informed consent for study participation.
Exclusion
- Type 1 (insulin-dependent; juvenile onset) diabetes, or any history of diabetic ketoacidosis
- Patients with known non-diabetic renal disease or patients with a history of a renal transplant
- Patients with a Hemoglobin A1c \>10% collected at the Screening A visit
- Cardiovascular disease as follows: Unstable angina pectoris within 3 months prior to study randomization; Myocardial infarction, coronary artery bypass graft surgery, or percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty/stent within 3 months prior to study randomization; Transient ischemic attack within 3 months of study randomization; Cerebrovascular accident within 3 months of study randomization; Obstructive valvular heart disease or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; Diagnosis of Class III or IV congestive heart failure at any time
- Systolic blood pressure (BP) \>160 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure \> 90 determined by the average of three seated readings taken at least 5 minutes apart, at each of two time-points at least 5 days apart during the screening period
- QTc Fredericia interval \> 450 milliseconds determined by the average of values reported by a central reader from three ECGs taken at the Screening A visit. Each of the three ECGs will be obtained using only equipment provided by the Sponsor, and the ECGs shall be obtained at least ten minutes apart.
- Second or third degree atrioventricular block not successfully treated with a pacemaker
- Need for chronic (\>2 weeks) immunosuppressive therapy, or need for corticosteroids (excluding intraarticular injections,inhaled or nasal steroids) within 3 months of study randomization

- If female, patient is pregnant, nursing or planning a pregnancy
- Patient has any concurrent clinical conditions that in the judgment of the investigator could either potentially pose a health risk to the patient while involved in the study or could potentially influence the study outcome
- Patient has known hypersensitivity to any component of the study drug
- Patient has undergone a diagnostic or interventional procedure requiring a contrast agent within 30 days prior to randomization
- Change or dose adjustment in any of the following medications within 8 weeks prior to randomization into the study or anticipated change in dose within 30 days following randomization into the study: ACE inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor blockers.
- Change or dose adjustment of any other anti-hypertensive, and other anti-diabetic medications within 8 weeks prior to randomization or anticipated change in dose within 30 days following randomization into the study
- Patient has a current history of drug or alcohol abuse as per the investigator's assessment
- Patient has participated in another investigational study within 30 days prior to randomization into the study or would concomitantly participate in such a study, or has previously participated in a trial involving bardoxolone methyl.
- Patient is unable to communicate or cooperate with the investigator due to language problems, poor mental development or impaired cerebral function
- Patient is unable or unwilling to utilize the daily phone diary to track the date and time they take their study medication
- Patients on any of the following known hepatotoxic agents: Antioxidant N-acetly-cysteine (Mucomyst, Acetadote, Fluimucil, Parvolex), Niacin (nicotinic acid), Dantrium (dantrolene), Naizide (isoniazid), Normodyne (labetalol), Cylert (pemoline), Felbatol (felbamate), Zyflo (zileuton), Tasmar (tolcapone), or Trovan (trovafloxacin). Patients must have been off the aforementioned medications for a minimum of two weeks prior to randomization
- Patients who are unable or unwilling to discontinue fenofibrate (Antara, Fenoglide, Lipofen, Lofibra, TriCor, Triglide) during the first three months of study treatment. Patients must have been off fenofibrate for a minimum of two weeks prior to randomization
