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

Summary

This observational study follows 150,000 people with chronic kidney disease and type 2 diabetes to see how finerenone (Kerendia) works in everyday medical care. Researchers will compare those taking finerenone to those not taking it, looking at rates of heart attacks and heart failure hospitalizations. No extra visits or tests are required—only existing health records are used.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
finerenone (Kerendia)
What this could lead to
If successful, this study could confirm that finerenone is safe and effective for preventing heart attacks and heart failure hospitalizations in real-world patients with CKD and T2D.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a controlled trial, so results may be influenced by other factors. It only looks at existing data, so it cannot prove cause and effect.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

Adults with CKD and T2D who are eligible for finerenone prescription after the approval of finerenone in the US. The study cohort will identify patients who initiate finerenone and a comparator group of individuals with CKD and T2D not using finerenone. All eligible adult individuals (aged ≥ 18 years) in the data source will be selected for the study cohort without sampling from the source population. There will be no restrictions of the study population based on sex, race, or ethnicity.

Ages

18 years and older

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.
