Sensing current down to tens of nA with INA828 or other OPA

I need to measure the current draw of DUT that can be an MCU in deep sleep, such as Attiny85, or a more power hungry MCU that is powered off by TPL5110. In this post, I proposed a circuit where an ...

High-side current sensing with a rail-bound instrumentation amplifier?

I know that current shunt monitor ICs and high common-mode voltage differential amplifiers like the INA117 and AD629 exist but I'd like to know if it's possible to use a regular instrumentation ...
