    On March 17, Eli Lilly and Company and Boehringer Ingelheim jointly announced that the SGLT2 inhibitor empagliflozin for the treatment of chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients was based on the recommendation of an independent data monitoring committee.


    CKD is a serious disease of decreased kidney function that affects nearly 850 million people worldwide, and many patients go undiagnosed


    Empagliflozin is a once-daily, highly selective inhibitor of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) that prevents sugar from being reabsorbed by the kidneys in patients with type 2 diabetes with high blood sugar levels.
