The growth hormone (GH)-insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-SST (SST) axis is involved in diabetic nephropathy (DN). We have recently shown a beneficial effect on diabetic kidney disease markers by the use of a novel somatostatin (SST) analogue (PTR-3173) (S). The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of S with a previously used SST analogue (octreotide) and an ACE inhibitor (ACEi), a standard of care in DN.
