New study watches how kidney drug works in real life

NCT ID NCT05348733

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This observational study follows over 4,600 adults with chronic kidney disease and type 2 diabetes who are starting finerenone, a drug that helps slow kidney damage. Researchers will collect data from routine doctor visits over 12 months to understand why doctors prescribe it, how long patients stay on it, and any side effects like high potassium levels. The goal is to learn how finerenone is used in real-world settings, not to test the drug itself.

What this could mean

Active substance

finerenone (Kerendia)

What this could lead to

If successful, this study could provide doctors with better guidance on how to use finerenone effectively in everyday care for kidney disease and diabetes.

What could go wrong

This is an observational study, not a controlled trial, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may be influenced by differences in patient care or other factors.
