The authors state that few patients discontinued finerenone owing to hyperkalemia (2.3% vs 0.9%). However, the enrollment criteria were crafted to minimize this, requiring a potassium level <4.8 mEq/L during screening and run-in, resulting in almost 60% exclusion.2Bakris G.L. Agarwal R.

It is likely that hyperkalemia will be more common in a real-world population of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), given the experience with spironolactone in heart failure.3Juurlink D.N.

Open table in a new tab Additionally, the claim that finerenone is superior to and safer than other MRAs reflects an absence of evidence rather than an evidence of absence of benefit.

We need clear guidance to navigate through the embarrassment of riches suddenly at our disposal for treatment of DKD. In order to fully understand the role of finerenone in this armamentarium, larger and adequately powered trials will help establish finerenone’s superiority to other MRAs.

Finerenone—A New Frontier in Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System Inhibition in Diabetic Kidney DiseaseAmerican Journal of Kidney DiseasesVol. 78Issue 2PreviewGlycemic control, blood pressure control, and single-agent renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) blockade were, until recently, the pillars of managing diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Although the introduction of sodium/glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors has further reduced DKD progression, patients continue to have significant residual risk, underlying the importance of identifying new therapies. In FIDELIO-DKD, Bakris et al1 demonstrate that the nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) finerenone (once daily 10-20 mg), on top of standard of care, is beneficial in DKD management. Full-Text PDF In Reply to ‘Finerenone: Fiddling With Hyperkalemia?’American Journal of Kidney DiseasesVol. 78Issue 5PreviewWe thank Waitzman et al1 for their comments. We agree that MRAs raise hyperkalemia risk and should be used cautiously to avoid subsequent higher rates of hyperkalemia.2 While there is evidence that nonsteroidal MRAs including finerenone increase potassium to a lesser extent than spironolactone,3 clinicians will need to exercise caution when using these therapies in patients with CKD.
