About this study
Official title: A Phase 3 Randomized Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Multicenter Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of KBP-5074 Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonist in Subjects With Uncontrolled Hypertension and Moderate or Severe (Stage 3b/4) CKD
This Phase 3, randomized, Double-blind, placebo-controlled, 2-arm, parallel-group, multicenter study with randomized withdrawal will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and durability of KBP-5074 in adult participants who have stage 3b/4 chronic kidney disease (CKD) (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] calculated using the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration [CKD-EPI] formula [eGFR {EPI}] ≥15 to ≤44 mL/min/1.73 m^2) and uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≥140 and <180 mm Hg and taking 2 or more antihypertensive medications.
Read the detailed description
Participants in this study will be recruited, screened, and enrolled at approximately 140 study sites globally.
The study will consist of the following periods:
- Pretreatment Phase: This will include prescreening assessment and screening period of up to 4 weeks and 2-week Open-label placebo Run-In period.
- A 24-week Double-blind Treatment Period (Randomization to Week 24) will include: An initial 12-week (Randomization to Week 12) and second 12-week (Week 12 to Week 24) treatment period and a second 12-week treatment period (Week 12 to Week 24), during both the periods study drug will be titrated.
- A 24-week Open-label Treatment Period (Week 24 to Week 48) during which eligible participants will receive Open-label KBP-5074.
- A 4-week Randomized Double-blind Withdrawal Period (Week 48 to Week 52) during which eligible participants will be randomized to continue their current KBP-5074 dose at the end of Open-label treatment or receive matching placebo for 4 weeks.
- A 4-week post-treatment Follow-Up Period (Week 52 to Week 56).
During, 24-week Double-blind Treatment Period, 24-week Open-label Treatment Period, and at 4-week Randomized Double-blind Withdrawal Period, the background antihypertensive medications change may or may not be allowed.
At Double-blind Treatment Period, eligible participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to KBP-5074 0.25 mg or matching placebo once daily (QD).
At the Randomized Double-blind Withdrawal Period, participants who meet the randomized withdrawal criteria will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to continue their current KBP-5074 dose at the end of the Open-label Treatment Period or matching placebo QD.
The study design included a pre-planned futility determination by an Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC).
The trial was originally sponsored by KBP Biosciences PTE Ltd, but sponsorship was transferred to Novo Nordisk after the trial was terminated following the futility determination by IDMC.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
This Phase 3, randomized, Double-blind, placebo-controlled, 2-arm, parallel-group, multicenter study with randomized withdrawal will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and durability of KBP-5074 in adult participants who have stage 3b/4 chronic kidney disease (CKD) (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] calculated using the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration [CKD-EPI] formula [eGFR {EPI}] ≥15 to ≤44 mL/min/1.73 m^2) and uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≥140 and <180 mm Hg and taking 2 or more antihypertensive medications.
Detailed description
Participants in this study will be recruited, screened, and enrolled at approximately 140 study sites globally.
The study will consist of the following periods:
- Pretreatment Phase: This will include prescreening assessment and screening period of up to 4 weeks and 2-week Open-label placebo Run-In period.
- A 24-week Double-blind Treatment Period (Randomization to Week 24) will include: An initial 12-week (Randomization to Week 12) and second 12-week (Week 12 to Week 24) treatment period and a second 12-week treatment period (Week 12 to Week 24), during both the periods study drug will be titrated.
- A 24-week Open-label Treatment Period (Week 24 to Week 48) during which eligible participants will receive Open-label KBP-5074.
- A 4-week Randomized Double-blind Withdrawal Period (Week 48 to Week 52) during which eligible participants will be randomized to continue their current KBP-5074 dose at the end of Open-label treatment or receive matching placebo for 4 weeks.
- A 4-week post-treatment Follow-Up Period (Week 52 to Week 56).
During, 24-week Double-blind Treatment Period, 24-week Open-label Treatment Period, and at 4-week Randomized Double-blind Withdrawal Period, the background antihypertensive medications change may or may not be allowed.
At Double-blind Treatment Period, eligible participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to KBP-5074 0.25 mg or matching placebo once daily (QD).
At the Randomized Double-blind Withdrawal Period, participants who meet the randomized withdrawal criteria will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to continue their current KBP-5074 dose at the end of the Open-label Treatment Period or matching placebo QD.
The study design included a pre-planned futility determination by an Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC).
The trial was originally sponsored by KBP Biosciences PTE Ltd, but sponsorship was transferred to Novo Nordisk after the trial was terminated following the futility determination by IDMC.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing KBP-5074 in people with Chronic Kidney Diseases, run by Novo Nordisk A/S at 215 sites in 22 countries.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Nov 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 215 sites in United States, China, Bulgaria, Georgia, Hungary and 17 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 4 Nov 2026). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Change in Seated Trough Cuff Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) From Baseline to Week 12 (time frame: From baseline to Week 12). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Nov 2026.
