A Study to Evaluate the Effect of CCX140-B on Urinary Albumin Excretion in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes and Albuminuria

A Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Effect of CCX140-B on Albuminuria in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of treatment with CCX140-B on urinary albumin excretion in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus and albuminuria, as well as to study the safety and efficacy of the medication in this patient population.

Study acquired by Amgen and all disclosures were done by previous sponsor ChemoCentryx.
