Objectives

Narrative objectives1

To evaluate the 2-year eGFR slope following add-on finerenone therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and diabetic kidney disease (DKD) receiving SGLT2 inhibitor treatment, and to assess its impact on the rate of renal function decline. Changes in albuminuria and safety outcomes will also be evaluated.

Developmental phase



Assessment

Primary outcomes

eGFR slope (mL/min/1.73 m2/year) during the 2 years following initiation of finerenone therapy

Key secondary outcomes

Comparison of eGFR slope before and after finerenone initiation
Annual eGFR slope during years 0-1 and 1-2 after finerenone initiation
Longitudinal changes in urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR)
Proportion of UACR responders (30% or greater reduction from baseline)
Renal outcomes according to baseline eGFR categories
Safety outcomes, including changes in serum potassium levels, incidence of hyperkalemia, acute decline in eGFR, and discontinuation rate of finerenone

Other related information

This is a single-center retrospective observational study. Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and diabetic kidney disease (DKD) who were newly initiated on finerenone while receiving SGLT2 inhibitor therapy at Minami Osaka Hospital between April 1, 2023 and April 30, 2024 will be included. For each patient, the date of finerenone initiation will be defined as the index date. The observation period will consist of 12 months before and 24 months after the index date. Clinical data obtained from electronic medical records will be used to evaluate eGFR slope, changes in albuminuria, and safety outcomes following add-on finerenone therapy.
