Abstract

Aims Despite guideline-recommended treatments, including renin angiotensin system inhibition, up to 40 % of individuals with type 1 diabetes develop chronic kidney disease (CKD) putting them at risk of kidney failure. Finerenone is approved to reduce the risk of kidney failure in individuals with type 2 diabetes. We postulate that finerenone will demonstrate benefits on kidney outcomes in people with type 1 diabetes. Methods FINE-ONE (NCT05901831) is a randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind phase III trial of 7.5 months' duration in ∼220 adults with type 1 diabetes, urine albumin/creatinine ratio (UACR) of ≥ 200–< 5000 mg/g (≥ 22.6–< 565 mg/mmol) and eGFR of ≥ 25–< 90 ml/min/1.73 m 2 . Results The primary endpoint is relative change in UACR from baseline over 6 months. UACR is used as a bridging biomarker (BB), since the treatment effect of finerenone on UACR was associated with its efficacy on kidney outcomes in the type 2 diabetes trials. Based on regulatory authority feedback, UACR can be used as a BB for kidney outcomes to support registration of finerenone in type 1 diabetes, provided necessary criteria are met. Secondary outcomes include incidences of treatment-emergent adverse events, treatment-emergent serious adverse events and hyperkalaemia. Conclusions FINE-ONE will evaluate the efficacy and safety of finerenone in type 1 diabetes and CKD. Finerenone could become the first registered treatment for CKD associated with type 1 diabetes in almost 30 years. Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT05901831.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Current evidence of kidney benefit is limited to CKD in type 2 diabetes.

    “while current evidence of kidney benefit is limited to CKD in type 2 diabetes, multiple studies are in progress to determine if these therapies also improve kidney outcomes in people with type 1 diabetes (149,150).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
