International, Multicenter, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled and Event-driven study to assess efficacy, safety and Tolerability of Baxdrostat in combination with Dapagliflozin on renal outcomes and cardiovascular mortality in participants with chronic kidney disease and high blood pressure
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of baxdrostat in combination with dapagliflozin, compared with placebo and dapagliflozin, in reducing the risk of the composite endpoint of ≥ 50% sustained decline in eGFR, kidney failure, HF events, or CV death in participants with CKD and HTN.
This study consists of a 4-week dapagliflozin Run-in Period for participants untreated with SGLT2i at screening, and a double-blinded period where participants will receive either baxdrostat/dapagliflozin or placebo/dapagliflozin.
Site visits will take place at 2-, 4-, 8-, 16-, 34, and 52-weeks following randomisation. Thereafter visits will occur approximately every 4 months.
The study closure procedures will be initiated when the predetermined number of primary endpoint events is predicted to have occurred (N = 845) ie, the PACD. All randomised participants including any participants who have prematurely discontinued study intervention will be scheduled for a SCV within 6 weeks of the PACD. This period can be extended by AstraZeneca.
In case of premature discontinuation of blinded study intervention, participants will continue in the study and receive dapagliflozin 10 mg, unless the participant meets dapagliflozin specific discontinuation criteria. Baxdrostat/placebo should not be administered without dapagliflozin: baxdrostat/placebo should be interrupted if dapagliflozin is interrupted (baxdrostat/placebo may be resumed with dapagliflozin, if dapagliflozin is resumed), and should be permanently discontinued if dapagliflozin is permanently discontinued. If study intervention is temporarily or permanently discontinued, the participant should remain in the study, and it is important that the scheduled study visits (including the PTDV for participants with permanent discontinuation of study intervention) and data collection continue according to the study protocol until the SCV.

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
GFR (glomerular filtration rate) is how much blood the kidneys filter each minute. It is usually estimated from a blood test — eGFR, by formulas such as CKD-EPI or MDRD — and some studies ask for it to be measured directly instead. Usually given in mL/min/1.73 m².
Check the method, the units and the minimum the study states. A value of 90 or above is in the normal-or-high range, but kidney damage can show in other tests too.
A blood test of average blood sugar over the past two to three months, given as a percentage or in mmol/mol. 6.5% (48 mmol/mol) or more is the usual threshold for diabetes, normally confirmed by a second test.

Studies set their own limit — many outside heart failure leave out class III–IV, while heart failure studies may ask for a particular class. Check the class this study names.
A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.
