Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: The primary objective is to demonstrate that at least 30% albuminuria reduction can be achieved in a substantial proportion of patients with a single drug (MRA finerenone or GLP1-RA semaglutide) when the best drug for each patient is selected.;Secondary Objective: Combination treatment with finerenone and semaglutide further lowers albuminuria at a population level but will only marginally improve the portion of patients with a 30% reduction in albuminuria when the best drug for each patient is selected., The monitoring of an individual’s drug response and selection of the right drug for each patient can be performed remotely (i.e. at home).;Primary end point(s): Endpoint parameter is the percentage change from baseline in UACR.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Secondary end point(s):Percentage change from baseline in UACR.;Secondary end point(s):Number of missed urine collection in the remote (@home) setting
