Effects of Finerenone in Persons with CKD and T2D are Independent of HbA1c at Baseline, HbA1c Variability, Diabetes Duration and Insulin Use at Baseline

Diabetes Obes Metab. 2023; online ahead of print DOI: 10.1111/dom.14999

Given the role of HbA1c, diabetes duration and insulin use in determining morbidity and mortality of CKD in T2D, it is important to investigate whether these factors modify the efficacy and safety of therapies that mitigate the cardiorenal impact of CKD in T2D. This post hoc analysis of the FIDELITY database evaluated the effect of finerenone by baseline HbA1c, HbA1c variability, diabetes duration and baseline insulin use on cardiorenal outcomes and diabetes progression.

Efficacy of Dapagliflozin by Baseline Diabetes Medications: A Prespecified Analysis From the DAPA-CKD Study

Diabetes Care. 2023; online ahead of print DOI: 10.2337/dc22-1514

Achieving optimal glucose control can be challenging in patients with T2D and CKD because impaired kidney function hampers the use of several oral or injectable glucose-lowering therapies (GLTs) and increases the likelihood of hypoglycaemia. This prespecified analysis from the DAPA-CKD trial evaluated whether the benefits of dapagliflozin in patients with T2D and CKD varied by background GLT number or class.

Effect of Finerenone on Ambulatory Blood Pressure in Chronic Kidney Disease in Type 2 Diabetes

J Hypertens. 2023;41:295–302 DOI: 10.1097/HJH.0000000000003330

It has been postulated that the effects of finerenone on cardiorenal outcomes may be mediated primarily via non-haemodynamic pathways, but office BP measurements are insufficient to fully assess haemodynamic effects. A substudy of the ARTS-DN phase IIb trial was conducted to obtain further insights into the mechanism of action of finerenone by analysing 24-h ambulatory BP in patients with CKD and T2D.

Efficacy and Safety of Dapagliflozin in Patients with Heart Failure with Mildly Reduced or Preserved Ejection Fraction by Baseline Glycaemic Status (DELIVER): a Subgroup Analysis from an International, Multicentre, Double-blind, Randomised, Placebo-controlled Trial

Lancet Diabetes Endocrinol. 2022;10:869–881 DOI: 10.1016/S2213-8587(22)00308-4

Dapagliflozin was shown to be highly efficacious in patients with HFmrEF and HFpEF in the DELIVER trial. However, whether the benefits of dapagliflozin are observed across glycaemia categories has not been previously reported.

Finerenone efficacy in patients with chronic kidney disease, type 2 diabetes and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease

Eur Heart J Cardiovasc Pharmacother. 2022; online ahead of print DOI: 10.1093/ehjcvp/pvac054

Finerenone reduced the risk of CV and kidney outcomes consistently across the spectrum of CKD in patients with T2D, irrespective of prevalent ASCVD.

Empagliflozin and Incidence of Events Consistent With Acute Kidney Injury: Pooled Safety Analysis in More Than 15,000 Individuals

Diabetes Obes Metab 2022;24:1390-3 doi: 10.1111/dom.14694

In this pooled analysis of patients from the global empagliflozin trial programme, the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) and acute kidney disease (AKD) with empagliflozin was comparable with placebo. This comprehensive analysis indicates that empagliflozin is not associated with an increased risk of acute kidney failure compared with placebo treatment.

Effects of Empagliflozin on Markers of Liver Steatosis and Fibrosis and Their Relationship to Cardiorenal Outcomes

Diabetes Obes Metab 2022; doi:10.1111/dom.14670

In this study of adults with T2D and established CV disease, the proportion of patients at high steatosis risk decreased slightly in patients treated with empagliflozin compared with patients treated with placebo. Fibrosis risk was not reduced.
