Great news. But the PR said nothing about weight loss which must have had an impact on BSA indexed eGFR. I guess we will find out when the FLOW trial is published.

Why are these trials so often presented by company name first?
We confuse drugs with companies e.g. “Pfizer vaccine” …giving them even more power to keep prices high and drugs out of reach of many…
