Finerenone reduced HF events and cardiovascular death in patients with HF and mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction, according to a trial led by Brigham and Women’s Hospital. The drug showed benefits regardless of ejection fraction and even with other therapies, suggesting it could be a new therapeutic option for HF patients. The trial, funded by Bayer, had limitations including few Black participants. Results were presented at the European Society of Cardiology Congress 2024 and published in the New England Journal of Medicine.

Finerenone reduced heart failure events and cardiovascular death in HF patients with mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction. The trial, led by Brigham and Women's Hospital and funded by Bayer, showed fewer HF events and cardiovascular deaths in the finerenone group compared to placebo, with higher rates of hyperkalemia.

ESC 2024: FINEARTS-HF trial sheds positive light on Kerendia for HFmrEF/HFpEF

The Phase III FINEARTS-HF trial presented at the ESC conference showed Bayer's Kerendia (finerenone) significantly reduced CV death and HF events by 16% in HF patients with LVEF ≥40%. Finerenone, a non-steroidal MRA, demonstrated safety and efficacy in a double-blind, placebo-controlled study, with findings consistent across subgroups. Kerendia, initially approved for chronic kidney disease with type 2 diabetes, may expand its use to HF pending FDA approval.
