Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
In a Phase IIa open label study of patients with CKD and type 2 diabetes, treatment with bardoxolone methyl for 28 days resulted in significant improvements in renal function, including increases in eGFR, and decreases in serum creatinine, cystatin C, BUN, phosphorus, uric acid, creatinine clearance, and angiotensin II; improvements in glycemic control as assessed by hemoglobin A1c; and improvements in markers of endothelial dysfunction and systemic inflammation, such as circulating endothelial cells and adiponectin. These data are consistent with the hypothesis that bardoxolone methyl improves renal function through suppression of renovascular oxidative stress and inflammation.
A new formulation of bardoxolone methyl has been developed, which is the same chemical entity but manufactured to contain an amorphous dispersion rather than a crystalline solid state. The new amorphous dispersion formulation of bardoxolone methyl has been shown to be more orally bioavailable in non-human primates. The purpose of this study is to determine the appropriate dose of the new bardoxolone methyl formulation to use in future clinical studies by determining the dose response relationship on eGFR.

Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
2. Patients must be at least 18 years of age;
3. The average of 2 eGFR values collected during screening must be within 15 - 45 mL /min/1.73m2 inclusive.
4. Patients must be receiving an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor and/or an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) for at least 8 weeks prior to screening, where the dose of the ACE inhibitor or the ARB is considered appropriate for that patient, and the patient has been stable and maintained on that dose for at least 8 weeks prior to randomization (Day 1). No change in ACE or ARB therapy should be anticipated or planned for the period of the study.
5. Male and female patients must agree to use effective contraception during the entire study period and for at least 2 months after the last dose of study drug, unless documentation of infertility exists
6. Women of child-bearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test result at screening and a confirmed negative urine pregnancy test result prior to administration of the first dose of study medication;
7. Patient is willing and able to cooperate with all aspects of the protocol;
8. Patient is willing and able to give written informed consent for study participation
Exclusion Criteria
2. Any patient with known non-diabetic renal disease, family history of a hereditary form of kidney disease, or patients with a history of a renal transplant.
3. Any patient with clinical or renal biopsy evidence of any non-diabetic renal disease other than nephro-sclerosis;
4. Any patient with blood pressure (BP) that is unable to be controlled to a systolic pressure (SeSBP) \<160 mmHg and a diastolic pressure (SeDBP) of \<90 mmHg. BP will be determined by the average of 3 readings, taken after being seated for at least 5-minutes. BP must be within this range taken at 2 separate time-points at least 4 days apart during the screening period;
5. Any patient with Hemoglobin A1c level \>10% collected at screening;
6. Any patient with cardiovascular disease as follows:
1. Unstable angina pectoris within 3 months before study randomization;
2. Myocardial infarction, coronary artery bypass graft surgery, or percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty/stent within 3 months before study randomization;
3. Transient ischemic attack within 3 months before study randomization;
4. Cerebrovascular accident within 3 months before study randomization;
5. Obstructive valvular heart disease or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy;
6. 2nd degree or 3rd degree atrioventricular block not successfully treated with a pacemaker;
7. Current diagnosis of Class III or IV congestive heart failure ;
7. Any patient with QTc Fredericia interval \> 450 milliseconds as determined by the average of values reported by a central reader from 3 ECGs taken at the Screening Visit.
8. Any patient with need for chronic (\>2 weeks) immunosuppressive therapy, including corticosteroids (excluding intra-articular injections inhaled or nasal steroids) within 3 months prior to randomization;
9. Any patient who requires more than occasional (once or twice weekly) use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents (NSAIDS);
10. Any patient who requires a change or dose adjustment in any of the following medications: ACE inhibitors and ARBs within 8 weeks; other anti-hypertensive, and other anti-diabetic medications within 6 weeks prior to study randomization;
11. Any patient who is unable or unwilling to discontinue the following medications throughout the study period: Niacin® (nicotinic acid), Niaspan® (nicotinic acid), Niacor® (nicotinic acid), Nicolar® (nicotinic acid),Nicobid® (nicotinic acid), Nydrazid® (isoniazid), Dantrium® (dantrolene), Normodyne® (labetalol), Trandate® (labetalol), Cylert® (pemoline), Tradon® (pemoline), PemADD® (pemoline), Felbatol® (felbamate), Zyflo® (zileuton),Tasmar® (tolcapone), or Tricor® (fenofibrate), Antaram® (fenofibrate), Triglide® (fenofibrate), Lofibra® (fenofibrate), Lipidil Micro® (fenofibrate), Lipidil Supra® (fenofibrate); including fenofibrate derivatives e.g. Lopid® (gemfibrozil) and Atromid-S® (clofibrate) .

13. If a patient provides a history of hepatitis B or C but has normal liver enzyme levels, the investigator should perform a serologic hepatitis screen and call the Medical Monitor to discuss patient eligibility. Patients with a history of hepatitis A that is resolved and who do not demonstrate any liver enzyme level elevation are eligible for protocol randomization;
14. Any female patient who is pregnant, nursing or planning a pregnancy;
15. Any patient with known hypersensitivity to any component of the study drug;
