The FLOW trial is the first dedicated GLP-1 renal outcomes
trial to demonstrate that semaglutide delays renal impairment
End-stage renal disease (ESRD) often results in
chronic dialysis treatment or kidney transplantation¹

2 in 5 people living with type 2 diabetes will develop chronic kidney

Up to 70% of people with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease
experience continued deterioration of the kidney function despite the
current standard of care3-5
~10% of the population worldwide is suffering from chronic kidney
diseases6
The global dialysis market is currently estimated to be around USD 80

Trial objective
The FLOW trial is the first dedicated GLP-1 renal outcomes trial and is
carried out to demonstrate that semaglutide delays the progression of
renal impairment and lowers the risk of renal and cardiovascular
mortality in people with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease
