Intravenous Chelators in Lead-Burdened Type 2 Diabetic Nephropathy

A Prospective Study on Intravenous Chelator Therapy for Slowing Renal Function Progression in Patients With Type 2 Diabetic Nephropathy Combined With Lead Burden

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 16 Jul 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Based on previous basic experiments revealing that patients with type 2 diabetic nephropathy exhibit higher blood lead levels than the general population, this study aims to systematically evaluate the impacts of short-term and long-term blood lead exposure on renal function progression in such patients, so as to provide novel epidemiological evidence for clinical intervention.
