Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

    • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).

    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    Demonstrate whether, in addition to standard of care (SoC), finerenone is superior to placebo in delaying the progression of kidney disease, as measured by the composite endpoint of time to first occurrence of kidney failure, a sustained decrease of eGFR ≥ 40% from baseline over at least 4 weeks or renal death
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    Determine whether, in addition to SoC, finerenone compared to placebo:
    • Delays the time to first occurrence of the following composite endpoint: cardiovascular (CV) death or non-fatal CV events (i.e. non fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, hospitalization for heart failure [HF])
    • Delays the time to all-cause mortality
    • Delays the time to all-cause hospitalizations
    • Change in UACR from baseline to Month 4
    • Delays the time to first occurrence of the following composite endpoint:
    onset of kidney failure, a sustained decrease in eGFR of ≥57% from baseline over at least 4 weeks or renal death.
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study Yes
    E.2.3.1Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives
    Echocardiography sub-study (section 9.7.8.1.1 of the CSP): The objective of the echocardiography imaging sub-study is to assess and characterize any important structural and functional cardiac abnormalities in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and diabetic kidney disease, at baseline, and to explore changes over time with finerenone treatment. These findings will enhance the understanding of cardiac function in the diabetic kidney disease Population
    Biomarker Substudy: (section 9.7.8.1.2 of the CSP): The objective of the biomarker sub-study is to assess the levels of pathophysiological markers associated with cardiovascular and renal disease in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and diabetic kidney disease, at baseline, and to explore changes over time with finerenone treatment. These findings will enhance the understanding of the effects of finerenone on cardiovascular and renal disease progression, by evaluating these biological markers in addition to clinical outcomes
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    - Men or women aged 18 years and older. The lower age limit may be higher if legally required in the participating country.
    - Women of childbearing potential can only be included in the study if a pregnancy test is negative at the Screening Visit and if they agree to use adequate contraception. Adequate contraception is defined as any combination of at least 2 effective methods of birth control, of which at least one is a physical barrier (e.g. condoms with hormonal contraception or implants or combined oral contraceptives, certain intrauterine devices). Women are considered post-menopausal and not of child bearing potential if they have had 12 months of natural (spontaneous) amenorrhea with an appropriate clinical profile (e.g. age appropriate) or 6 months of spontaneous amenorrhea with serum FSH levels > 40 mIU/mL [for US only: FSH levels > 40 mIU/mL and estradiol < 20 pg/mL] or have had surgical treatment such as bilateral tubal ligation, bilateral ovarectomy, or hysterectomy.
    - Subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus as defined by the American Diabetes Association
    - Subjects with a clinical diagnosis of DKD based on either of the following criteria at the Run-in and Screening Visit:
    • Persistent high albuminuria defined as UACR of ≥ 30 mg/g ( ≥ 3.4 mg/mmol) but < 300 mg/g (< 33.9 mg/mmol) in 2 out of 3 first morning void samples and eGFR ≥ 25 but < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 and presence of diabetic retinopathy in the medical history
    OR
    • Persistent very high albuminuria defined as UACR of ≥ 300 mg/g (≥ 33.9 mg/mmol) in 2 out of 3 first morning void samples and eGFR ≥ 25 but < 75 mL/min/1.73 m2
    - Prior treatment with ACEIs and ARBs as follows:
    • For at least 4 weeks prior to the Run-in Visit, subjects should be treated with either an ACEI or ARB, or both
    • Starting with the Run in Visit, subjects should be treated with only an ACEI or ARB
    • For at least 4 weeks prior to the Screening Visit, subjects should be treated with the maximum tolerated labeled dose (but not below the minimal labeled dose) of only an ACEI or an ARB (not both) preferably without any adjustments to dose or choice of agent or to any other antihypertensive or antiglycemic treatment
    - Serum potassium ≤ 4.8 mmol/L at both the Run-in and the Screening Visit
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    - Known significant non-diabetic renal disease, including clinically relevant renal artery stenosis
    - HbA1c > 12% (> 108 mmol/mol) at the Run-in Visit or Screening Visit
    - Uncontrolled arterial hypertension with mean sitting systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≥ 170 mmHg or mean sitting diastolic blood pressure (DBP) ≥ 110 mmHg at the Run in Visit or mean sitting SBP ≥ 160 mmHg or mean sitting DBP ≥ 100 mmHg at the Screening Visit
    - Subjects with a clinical diagnosis of chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and persistent symptoms (New York Heart Association class II-IV) at the Run in Visit (class 1A recommendation for MRAs)
    - Dialysis for acute renal failure within 12 weeks prior to the Run-in Visit
    - Renal allograft in place or a scheduled kidney transplant within the next 12 months from the Run in Visit
    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    Time to the first occurrence of the composite endpoint of onset of kidney failure, a sustained decrease of eGFR ≥ 40% from baseline over at least 4 weeks and renal death.
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    From randomization (Visit 1) until the end of study following the study termination decision, approximately from 11 to 47 months
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    - Time to first occurrence of the following composite endpoint: cardiovascular death or non-fatal cardiovascular events (myocardial infarction, stroke, hospitalization for heart failure)
    - Time to all-cause mortality
    - Time to all-cause hospitalizations
    - Change in UACR from baseline to Month 4*
    - Time to first occurrence of the following composite endpoint:onset of kidney failure, a sustained decrease in eGFR of ≥57% from baseline over at least 4 weeks or renal death.
