Abstract
Hemodynamic alterations, metabolic dysfunction, inflammation, and fibrosis are the main drivers of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) progression. Targeting inflammation and fibrosis as a driver, the FIDELIO-DKD (Effect of Finerenone on Chronic Kidney Disease Outcomes in Type 2 Diabetes) trial reported by Bakris et al. provides evidence of a new therapeutic class for treating DKD.Entities:
