Could a kidney drug for type 2 diabetes also help type 1 patients?

NCT ID NCT05901831

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This Phase 3 trial tested whether finerenone, a drug already approved for kidney disease in type 2 diabetes, can also slow kidney damage in people with type 1 diabetes. 241 adults with both conditions took either finerenone or a placebo for 6 months, alongside their usual care. Researchers measured changes in urine protein levels and monitored safety, including side effects and high potassium levels.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
finerenone
What this could lead to
If it works, finerenone could become a new treatment option to slow kidney disease progression in people with type 1 diabetes.
What could go wrong
This is a completed Phase 3 trial, but results are not yet published. Finerenone is already approved for type 2 diabetes, so it may not work the same way for type 1 diabetes. Risks include high potassium levels.

Inclusion Criteria: * Participant must be ≥18 years of age (or the legal age of consent according to local legislation) at the time of signing the informed consent. * Participants with Type 1 diabetes (T1D), i.e. T1D continuously treated with insulin, started within one year from diagnosis. * If the onset was after age 35, documentation of the presence of one or more of the following: * Circulating T1D-associated autoantibodies * Hospitalization for diabetic ketoacidosis * Plasma C-peptide below the limit of detection with standard assay (with concurrent blood glucose \>100 mg/dl). * HbA1c at Screening \<10% (central assessment). * Note: One reassessment is allowed for HbA1c during the Screening period in case the first measurement is missing/unreadable/invalid. * K+ ≤ 4.8 mmol/L at Screening (local assessment) * Participants with a clinical diagnosis of CKD and fulfilling both the criteria (central assessment): * eGFR ≥25 and \<90 mL/min/1.73 m\^2 using CKD-EPI (Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration) 2009 formula at the Screening visit * UACR ≥200 mg/g (22.6 mg/mmol) to \<5000 mg/g (565 mg/mmol) at the Screening visit (geometric mean of the 3 measurements) * Participants on a stable (preferably without any change in the dosage for at least 4 weeks prior to the Screening visit) ACEI (Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor) or ARB (Angiotensin receptor blocker) treatment. Exclusion Criteria: * Participant with T2D (Type 2 diabetes). * Participant with mean BP (Blood pressure) higher than 160/100 mmHg or mean systolic BP lower than 90 mmHg at the Screening visit * Symptomatic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction with class 1A indication for Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs). * Participants with current or previous (within 8 weeks prior to the Screening visit) treatment with a SGLT-2/-1 (Sodium-Glucose co-transporter-2/-1) inhibitor or GLP1 (Glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonist.
