Finerenone in adults with CKD and type 2 diabetes in Spain: real-world changes in kidney risk score
Official title: An Observational Prospective Study to Analyse Changes in the Klinrisk Chronic Kidney Disease Progression Model Score in a Cohort of Patients With CKD Associated With Type 2 Diabetes Treated With Finerenone in Spain
Run by Bayer · NCT07554469 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This observational study tests how finerenone affects a kidney-risk score in adults with CKD linked to type 2 diabetes who are already taking finerenone in routine care in Spain.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults (≥18 years) with CKD and type 2 diabetes who have albuminuria and have started finerenone within the prior 2 months.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients not receiving finerenone or those with severe renal/hepatic impairment or other exclusionary conditions may not experience the potential benefits observed in this study.

What this trial studies
This is a prospective, observational study using data from adults with CKD due to type 2 diabetes who are being treated with finerenone in routine practice in Spain. The goal is to analyze changes in a CKD risk score, such as Klinrisk, over time as patients continue finerenone therapy. Researchers will collect information from standard clinical tests like eGFR and UACR and other routine lab results to understand how the risk of disease progression evolves in real-world settings. The study does not assign treatment but observes outcomes in patients already prescribed finerenone according to local practice. Results may help clarify how finerenone-related risk profiles change in routine care outside of randomized trials.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the study could provide real-world evidence on how finerenone may influence kidney risk progression in patients with CKD and type 2 diabetes.
How similar studies have gone: Real-world observations have suggested beneficial trends with finerenone in CKD and diabetes, but this specific observational assessment of a CKD risk score in a Spanish setting is relatively novel.
