Overview

Brief Summary

Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have worsening of chronic heart failure, a long-term condition where the heart does not pump blood as well as it should.

In this study researchers wanted to learn more about a new substance called finerenone (BAY94-8862).

Finerenone is a substance that blocks the activation of a protein in the body called mineralocorticoid receptor (MR). An increased activation of MR is involved in the development of hypertension, organ damage and worsening of heart failure. Many patients with worsening chronic heart failure also suffer from chronic kidney disease. Chronic kidney disease is a long-term decrease in the kidneys' ability to work properly.

The researchers studied how finerenone moves into, through and out of the body. The researchers also looked at how safe finerenone is and how it affects the body. The main purpose of this study was to help researchers develop recommendations for the amount of the substance (the dosing) to be given to patients with reduced kidney function.
