You may qualify if…

Capable of giving signed informed consent form.
Male or female adults, >= 18 years of age at study entry.
For participants who haven't reached the age of maturity according to local regulations in their country, a written informed consent should be obtained from the participant and participants legally acceptable representative.
Body weight within 50-150 kg and body mass index within the range 18 to 45 kg/m\^2.
Participants with proteinuric CKD defined as:
eGFR 20 - 75 mL/min/1.73m\^2 based on Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation at Screening Visit 1.
Albuminuria defined as 200 -5000 mg albumin/g creatinine based on the geometric mean of the replicated measurements using 3 sequential first morning void urine at Visit 2.
Participants with diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM) [for DKD sub-group only].
Females of non-childbearing potential must have been surgically sterilized or be postmenopausal, and all female participants must have a negative pregnancy test at screening and prior to study drug administration.
Male participants must be surgically sterile or agree to use highly effective contraceptives. Non-sterilized male participants who are sexually active with a female partner of childbearing potential must use a male condom with spermicide from Day 1 to 3 months after the last dose of the study drug. Approved/Certified measurements in Japan are as Vasectomy, tubal occlusion, intrauterine device (provided coils are copper banded), levonorgestrel intrauterine system (eg, Mirena®). These measurements are acceptable forms of highly effective birth control in Japan. Not Approved/Certified measurements in Japan are as: Cerazette® (desogestrel) pills, medroxyprogesterone injections (eg, Depo-Provera®), etonogestrel implants (eg, Implanon®, Norplan®), normal and low dose combined oral pills, norelgestromin/ethinylestradiol transdermal system (eg, Evra® Patch), intravaginal device (eg, NuvaRing®).
Provision of signed and dated written Optional Genetic Research Information informed consent prior to collection of samples for optional exploratory genetic research.
Participants should have: a) stable blood pressure (BP [BP <= 150/100 mmHg at Visit 1, and 3]); b)stable dose of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) for at least 4 weeks prior to Screening Visit 1; c) participants who have been unable to tolerate ACEi or ARB therapy may be enrolled.
Participants must have been on a stable dose for at least 4 weeks prior to Screening Visit 1, who have been on additional antihypertensives (including diuretics); on treatment with drugs with potential to influence albuminuria eg., non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug; on renin inhibitor or an aldosterone antagonist in combination with an ACEi or an ARB.
Participants on Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) or Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP1-RA) treatment, the participants must have been on a stable dose for at least 4 weeks prior to randomization visit.

You may not qualify if…

Participants with recent positive hepatitis B or hepatitis C.
Diagnosis of polycystic kidney disease or anatomical causes of CKD.
Diagnosis of Type 1 DM.
Participants with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh class C).
Abnormal laboratory findings at Screening Visit 1.
Any of the following concomitant conditions or diseases at Screening Visit 1:
History of QT prolongation associated with other medications that required discontinuation of that medication, and congenital long QT syndrome.
Acute coronary syndrome, percutaneous coronary intervention, coronary artery bypass grafting within 6 months.
High degree atrioventricular block II-III, sinus node dysfunction.
Stroke within 3 months, heart failure, and anticipated dialysis or renal transplantation within 1 year.
Any other condition or clinically relevant abnormal findings in physical examination, laboratory results or ECG during screening period.
History of substance dependence or a positive screen for drugs or alcohol abuse. Alcohol and drug screening to be completed for all participants locally with laboratory kits provided by the central laboratory.
Participant who had severe course of COVID-19 (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, mechanically ventilated), and/or had a confirmed case of COVID-19 within 4 weeks of Screening Visit 1.
Ongoing use of any biologic drug and/or small molecule targeting the immune system.
Any serum creatinine-altering drugs within 1 month prior to Screening Visit 1.
Treatment with any concomitant medications known to be associated with Torsades de Pointes or potent inducers/inhibitors of cytochrome P450 3A4 within 4 weeks of Visit 3 (Randomization).
Treatment with zileuton, cilastatin (dipeptidase-1 [DPEP1] inhibitor), or leukotriene receptor antagonists (eg, montelukast) within 4 weeks of Screening Visit 1.
Treatment with simvastatin, lovastatin, and atorvastatin at doses > 40 mg per day within 1 month prior to Screening Visit 1.
Concurrent enrollment in another clinical study involving an investigational treatment or drug or participation in a device study within 3 months prior to Screening Visit 1.
Participants with a known hypersensitivity to AZD5718 or any of the excipients of the product. Participants with a known hypersensitivity to dapagliflozin or any of the excipients of the product.
Donation of blood or significant blood loss in excess of 500 mL within 3 months prior to Day 1 (or > 1200 mL in the year prior to Day 1).
Plasma donation within 60 days prior to Day 1.
Involvement in the planning and/or conduct of the study (applies to both AstraZeneca staff and/or staff at the study center).
