Abstract

AIMS: Contemporary patterns of care of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and the adoption of finerenone are not known. The FINE-REAL study (NCT05348733) is a prospective observational study in patients with CKD and T2D to provide insights into the use of the nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) finerenone in clinical practice. METHODS: FINE-REAL is an international, prospective, multicenter, single-arm study enrolling approximately 5500 adults with CKD and T2D in an estimated 200 sites across 22 countries. The study is anticipated to be ongoing until 2027. RESULTS: The primary objective is to describe treatment patterns in patients with CKD and T2D treated with finerenone in routine clinical practice. Secondary objectives include assessment of safety with finerenone. Other endpoints include characterization of healthcare resource utilization and occurrence of newly diagnosed diabetic retinopathy or its progression from baseline in patients with existing disease. A biobank is being organized for future explorative analyses with inclusion of participants from the United States. CONCLUSIONS: FINE-REAL is the first prospective observational study with a nonsteroidal MRA in a population with CKD and T2D and is expected to provide meaningful insights into the treatment of CKD associated with T2D. FINE-REAL will inform decision-making with respect to initiation of finerenone in patients with CKD and T2D.
