After 108 weeks, changes in UACR from baseline with lixisenatide were 1.69% [(95% CI: 11.69 to 8.30), p=0.7398] in patients with normoalbuminuria, 21.10% [(95% CI: 42.25 to 0.04), p=0.0502] in patients with microalbuminuria, and 39.18% [(95% CI: 6853 to 984), p=0.0070] in patients with macroalbuminuria

RAAS inhibitors remain foundational, especially for albuminuric CKD, while GLP-1RAs offer modest albuminuria reduction and strong cardiovascular benefit, but less direct renal protection compared to SGLT2is [123]

This is why GLP-1 is used as an active ingredient in GLP-1 program to help control appetite, ultimately leading to weight loss

GLP-1 receptor agonists are hydrophilic proteins with molecular weights exceeding 3,000 Daltonsfar above the typical 500 Da threshold for effective passive skin penetration
