Correct answer: C — Semaglutide reduced the risk of kidney disease progression and cardiovascular death in patients with T2D and CKD
The FLOW trial (2024) was the first dedicated kidney outcomes trial of a GLP-1 RA. It demonstrated that Semaglutide 1 mg weekly significantly reduced the primary composite outcome (kidney disease progression, kidney death, cardiovascular death) by 24% in patients with T2D and CKD (eGFR 25-75, uACR 300-5000). The trial was stopped early for overwhelming efficacy. This supports KDIGO 2024's recommendation of GLP-1 RA as part of the comprehensive CKD management approach.
