May 18, 2006 updated by: Karolinska University Hospital

Studies of Early Diabetic Glomerulopathy-the Relation Between Histopathology, Kidney Function and Metabolic Control. Natural History and Effect of ARB

The type 1 diabetes patients who were still normoalbuminuric and normotensive, after 17 years duration and a second research kidney biopsy, could enter the double blind treatment study of Atacand or Placebo.

The treatment study continues for five years treatment and ends with a third kidney biopsy.

The study hypothesis is that the effect of ARB during 5 years on the histopathology are more pronounced than the effect on histopathology of placebo.
