Abstract
|
|
|
|
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and cardiovascular disease are closely interconnected. We sought to determine the cardioprotective action of finerenone according to prior treatment with newer antidiabetics and glycemic status. We searched PubMed and Cochrane Library from inception to October 1, 2021 for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing the effect of finerenone on major adverse cardiovascular outcomes in patients with T2DM. We set the primary endpoint as major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), defined as the composite of death from cardiovascular causes, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke, or hospitalization for heart failure. We finally included two RCTs in our quantitative synthesis. Compared to placebo, finerenone induced a 23% risk reduction for the composite cardiovascular endpoint, regardless of prior glycemia. We also showed that finerenone provided significant cardiovascular benefit for obese patients with T2DM compared to placebo, although this benefit was diminished for subjects with a body mass index lower than 30 kg/m2. Finally, the combination of finerenone with sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors or glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists did not produce a significant risk reduction for MACE. We conclude that finerenone provides significant cardiovascular benefits for patients with T2DM, especially for those who are obese, while glycemic status or treatment with newer antidiabetics at baseline does not affect the observed cardioprotective action.
