Core Tip Diabetic nephropathy is the leading cause of end-stage renal disease worldwide and proteinuria reduction is the cornerstone in the management. In some patients even with dual therapy with renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system blockers and sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors, residual proteinuria persists. Finerenone, a novel nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist has shown results reducing albuminuria and slowing chronic kidney disease progression. This study evaluated the additive effect of finerenone exclusively in patients receiving maximum tolerable doses of both dapagliflozin and telmisartan unlike previously available studies evaluating its effect on patients with maximum tolerated dose of angiotensin receptor blocker alone.
