If you were diagnosed with CKD, please know that you are not alone in your medical journey. Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a progressive, long-term condition where the kidneys gradually lose function over time, often remaining undetected until advanced stages.<\/p>


Currently, we are working on developing potential treatments for CKD. Moon is a clinical research study that aims to see if an investigational treatment may be effective and well-tolerated in adults and adolescents with CKD.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

If you join the study, there are certain things you will be expected to do. This includes attending study visits and undergoing certain assessments and procedures. Your participation may last up to 3 months with 15 study visits.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

As with all medicines, there are possible risks when taking the investigational treatment. If you qualify and choose to participate, you will be provided with an Informed Consent Form that explains any possible risks and side effects. It is also possible that the study treatment may affect you in unknown ways. Your health and safety are our top priorities and will be closely monitored throughout your participation.<\/p>

There is no guarantee that you will receive a medical benefit from participating in this study. Your condition may get better, stay the same, or may even get worse. You are free to withdraw from the study for any reason and at any time.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
