Efficacy and Safety of Finerenone for Prevention of Cardiovascular Events in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.
Only a few meta-analyses evaluated the effect of finerenone on cardiovascular events in type 2 diabetes mellitus with chronic kidney disease. The main aim of this meta-analysis was to gain more reliable assessments of the efficacy and safety of finerenone for prevention of cardiovascular events in diabetic kidney disease. We searched for finerenone in the treatment of diabetic kidney disease from database (PubMed, Embase, and ClinicalTrials.gov ) until December 30, 2021. Relative risks (RRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) calculated by the Mantel-Haenszel random-effects model were used as summary statistics for the categorical data. We included 4 studies that met the inclusion criteria with 13,943 participants. The finerenone group demonstrated a great benefit in reducing the incidence of major adverse cardiac events (RR: 0.88; 95% CI 0.80-0.96; P = 0.003), all-cause mortality (RR: 0.89; 95% CI 0.80-0.99; P = 0.04), myocardial infarction (RR: 0.79; 95% CI 0.67-0.92; P = 0.003), and new-onset hypertension (RR: 0.71; 95% CI 0.62-0.81; P < 0.00001). No difference was found in adverse events between the finerenone and placebo groups (RR: 1.00; 95% CI [0.98-1.01], P = 0.59), whereas a higher risk of hyperkalemia was observed in the finerenone group than in the placebo group (RR = 2.04, 95% CI 1.80-2.32; P < 0.00001). Besides, cerebrovascular events and new-onset atrial fibrillation did not increase in patients taking finerenone. Overall, finerenone treatment showed a great benefit of reducing the risk of major adverse cardiac events, all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, and new-onset hypertension events in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease.

Recent understandings about hypertension management in type 2 diabetes: What are the roles of SGLT2 inhibitor, GLP-1 receptor agonist, and finerenone?
Diabetes and hypertension often coexist, with about half of patients with diabetes also having hypertension. The risk of cardiovascular disease increases by three to six-fold with the coexistence of diabetes and hypertension; therefore, the management of blood pressure to prevent cardiovascular disease is a particularly important issue in patients with diabetes. Clinical trial findings have resulted in recommendations to control blood pressure to <130/80 mmHg in Japanese patients with diabetes. However, the target blood pressure and selection of anti-hypertensive medications should vary depending on the duration of diabetes and comorbidities, and guidelines and clinical trial results should be interpreted flexibly to provide anti-hypertensive treatment tailored to individual patients. In recent years, a number of drugs have emerged that have significant cardio-renal protective effects in patients with diabetes, and a typical example is sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i), glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA), and nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist, finerenone. They have also shown modest but significant blood pressure-lowering effects. In the future, beyond considering the thresholds for how far to lower blood pressure, blood pressure management in patients with diabetes will require understanding the additive cardioprotective value of drugs aimed at lowering blood pressure and the quality of blood pressure lowering. Clinical questions of blood pressure lowering in patients with diabetes GLP-1RA, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist; SGLT2i, sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor.

Novel Drugs for Hypertension and Heart Failure: Struggling for a Place Under the Sun.
Backgound: Current drug therapy for the management of arterial hypertension and heart failure has provided substantial benefits but has also some limitations. LCZ696, a dual inhibitor of angiotensin receptor blockers and neprilysin, and finerenone, a non-steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist, are two recently developed novel agents for the management of these conditions.. This review aims to present the pathophysiological basis for the use of these two novel drugs, critically discuss available clinical data, and provide future perspectives.. LCZ696 seems a very promising antihypertensive agent, that additionally generates clinically meaningful benefits in patients with heart failure with reduced injection fraction and raises expectations for the management of patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Finerenone aims to be safer than current aldosterone antagonists and has been so far tested in patients with heart failure and in patients with albuminuria. First available data are very promising for the efficacy of the drug, while it provides a better safety profile than current mineralocorticoid antagonists.. LCZ696 and finerenone are two novel drugs for the management of arterial hypertension and heart failure. First available data point toward important clinical benefits from their use. Future large trials further investigating the cardiovascular profile of these agents will establish the use of these drugs.

Non-steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonism for the treatment of cardiovascular and renal disease.
Pharmaceutical antagonism of the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) can protect against organ damage caused by elevated aldosterone levels in patients experiencing heart failure (HF), chronic kidney disease (CKD), primary aldosteronism, and hypertension. While traditional steroid-based MR antagonists effectively reduce mortality rates and extend patient survival, their broad application has been limited by significant side effects, most notably hyperkalaemia. Recently, finerenone (BAY 94-8862) has emerged as a next-generation non-steroidal dihydropyridine-based MR antagonist designed to minimize off-target effects while maintaining potent efficacy. In this review, the outcomes of finerenone therapy in several diseases associated with MR activity are explored. The (pre-) clinical efficacy of finerenone is compared with that of traditional steroid-based MR antagonists. Finally, recent and ongoing clinical trials using finerenone to treat chronic HF, CKD, and diabetic nephropathy are discussed. Taken together, pre-clinical and clinical evidence suggests that finerenone may achieve equivalent organ-protective effects with reduced levels of electrolyte disturbance compared with traditional steroid-based MR antagonists. This supports further clinical development of finerenone for the treatment of cardiovascular and renal disease.

Finerenone Reduces Renal RORγt γδ T Cells and Protects against Cardiorenal Damage.
Chronic activation of the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) leads to pathological processes like inflammation and fibrosis during cardiorenal disease. Modulation of immunological processes in the heart or kidney may serve as a mechanistic and therapeutic interface in cardiorenal pathologies. In this study, we investigated anti-inflammatory/-fibrotic and immunological effects of the selective nonsteroidal MR antagonists finerenone (FIN) in the deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-salt model.. Male C57BL6/J mice were uninephrectomized and received a DOCA pellet implantation (2.4 mg/day) plus 0.9% NaCl in drinking water (DOCA-salt) or received a sham operation and were orally treated with FIN (10 mg/kg/day) or vehicle in a preventive study design. Five weeks after the procedure, blood pressure (BP), urinary albumin/creatinine ratio (UACR), glomerular and tubulointerstitial damage, echocardiographic cardiac function, as well as cardiac/renal inflammatory cell content by FACS analysis were assessed.. BP was significantly reduced by FIN. FACS analysis revealed a notable immune response due to DOCA-salt exposure. Especially, infiltrating renal RORγt γδ-positive T cells were upregulated, which was significantly ameliorated by FIN treatment. This was accompanied by a significant reduction of UACR in FIN-treated mice. In the heart, FIN reduced DOCA-salt-induced cardiac hypertrophy, cardiac fibrosis and led to an improvement of the global longitudinal strain. Cardiac actions of FIN were not associated with a regulation of cardiac RORγt γδ-positive T cells.. The present study shows cardiac and renal protective effects of FIN in a DOCA-salt model. The cardiorenal protection was accompanied by a reduction of renal RORγt γδ T cells. The observed actions of FIN may provide a potential mechanism of its efficacy recently observed in clinical trials.

Effects of Finerenone Combined with Empagliflozin in a Model of Hypertension-Induced End-Organ Damage.
The nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonist finerenone and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have demonstrated clinical benefits in CKD patients with type 2 diabetes. Clinical data analyzing the potential value of a combination therapy are currently limited. We therefore investigated cardiorenal protection of respective mono- and combination therapy in a preclinical model of hypertension-induced end-organ damage.. Cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality were studied in hypertensive, N(ω)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester-treated, renin-transgenic (mRen2)27 rats. Rats (10- to 11-week-old females, n = 13-17/group) were treated once daily orally for up to 7 weeks with placebo, finerenone (1 and 3 mg/kg), empagliflozin (3 and 10 mg/kg), or a combination of the respective low doses. Key outcome parameters included mortality, proteinuria, plasma creatinine and uric acid, blood pressure, and cardiac and renal histology.. Placebo-treated rats demonstrated a 50% survival rate over the course of 7 weeks. Drug treatment resulted in variable degrees of survival benefit, most prominently in the low-dose combination group with a survival benefit of 93%. Monotherapies of finerenone or empagliflozin dose-dependently reduced proteinuria, while low-dose combination revealed an early, sustained, and over-additive reduction in proteinuria. Empagliflozin induced a strong and dose-dependent increase in urinary glucose excretion which was not influenced by finerenone coadministration in the combination arm. Low-dose combination but not respective low-dose monotherapies significantly reduced plasma creatinine and plasma uric acid after 6 weeks. Treatment with finerenone and the low-dose combination significantly decreased systolic blood pressure after 5 weeks. There was a dose-dependent protection from cardiac and kidney fibrosis and vasculopathy with both agents, while low-dose combination therapy was more efficient than the respective monotherapy dosages on most cardiorenal histology parameters.. Nonsteroidal MR antagonism by finerenone and SGLT2 inhibition by empagliflozin confer CV protection in preclinical hypertension-induced cardiorenal disease. Combination of these 2 independent modes of action at low dosages revealed efficacious reduction in important functional parameters such as proteinuria and blood pressure, plasma markers including creatinine and uric acid, cardiac and renal lesions as determined by histopathology, and mortality indicating a strong potential for combined clinical use in cardiorenal patient populations.
