Cardiovascular and Renal Benefit of Novel Non-steroidal Mineralocorticoid Antagonists in Patients with Diabetes

Review

Author: Kintscher, Ulrich

PURPOSE OF REVIEW:

Novel non-steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonists (MRAs) are a new class of drugs blocking adverse MR-mediated effects with an improved benefit-risk profile compared to steroidal MRAs. This review will provide information on the preclinical and clinical pharmacology of this new drug class and will discuss their future clinical applications in patients with cardiorenal disease.

RECENT FINDINGS:

Non-steroidal MRAs such as esaxerenone, AZD9977, apararenone, ocedurenone (KBP-5074), and finerenone are newly approved or in clinical development for patients with cardiorenal disease including type 2 diabetes (T2D) and chronic kidney disease (CKD), hypertension -/+ CKD or heart failure. Unlike steroidal MRAs, non-steroidal MRAs do not induce sex hormone-related side effects and appear to mediate a lower risk of hyperkalemia while maintaining compelling clinical efficacy. Recently, new data from several clinical trials with non-steroidal MRAs have been published (e.g., FIDELIO-DKD, FIGARO-DKD, ESAX-DN, and BLOCK-CKD), and additional studies are currently underway (e.g., FINEARTS-HF and CLARION-CKD). These data and the clinical scientific basis for the ongoing studies will be discussed. Non-steroidal MRAs have been extensively explored in diabetic kidney disease. Selected candidates of this drug class reduced UACR in patients with varying degrees of CKD and T2D and have shown convincing cardiorenal protection, in particular finerenone. Furthermore, finerenone is currently tested in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.

Molecular pharmacology of mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists: The role of co-regulators

Article

Author: Koca, Duygu ; Lother, Achim

Mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonists have shown remarkable benefits in the treatment of cardiovascular disease. However, their underutilization in clinical practice may be attributed to concerns regarding the risk of hyperkalemia. An ideal selective MR modulator would inhibit the detrimental effects of MR in non-epithelial cells of the cardiovascular system while sparing its physiological function in kidney epithelial cells, thereby reducing the risk of adverse events. To address this issue, a new generation of non-steroidal MR antagonists, including esaxereneone, balcinrenone, ocedurenone, and finerenone, has been developed with distinct molecular structures and pharmacology. They share a mechanism of action that is different from the previously developed steroidal MR antagonists, leading to altered co-regulator interaction, potentially involving conformational changes of the receptor. Interfering with MR co-regulator interaction or the co-regulator itself may enable selective targeting of downstream signaling cascades and - in the long term - lead to more personalized medicine. In this review article, we summarize what is currently known about the mechanisms of action of the different MR antagonists with a focus on MR co-factor interaction and what may be inferred from this for future developments.

Nonsteroidal Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonist (Finerenone) in Cardiorenal Disease

Review

Author: Shah, Monarch ; Awad, Alaa S ; Abdel-Rahman, Emaad M

Nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) present a promising therapeutic option in cardiorenal diseases, mitigating the limitations of steroidal MRAs. Finerenone, a third-generation nonsteroidal MRA, has demonstrated beneficial effects in heart failure (HF) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Clinical trials, including FIDELIO-DKD and FIGARO-DKD, revealed finerenone’s efficacy in improving kidney and cardiovascular (CV) outcomes. Patients with CKD and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) on finerenone experienced reduced rates of cardiovascular events, including hospitalization for HF. However, these trials excluded symptomatic HF patients, focusing on asymptomatic or early-stage HF. The ongoing FINEARTS-HF trial evaluates finerenone in HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Additionally, studies exploring finerenone and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors’ (Empagliflozin) combination effects in CKD and T2DM (CONFIDENCE) and the selective MR modulator AZD9977 with another SGLT2 inhibitor (dapagliflozin) in HF and CKD (MIRACLE) aim to expand treatment options. While SGLT-2 inhibitors were shown to reduce hyperkalemia risk in FIDELIO-DKD and potentially lower new-onset HF incidence in FIGARO-DKD, further research is essential. So far, the evidence for the beneficial effect of finerenone in the spectrum of cardiorenal diseases is based only on the results of studies conducted in patients with T2DM, and clinical trials of finerenone in patients with nondiabetic kidney disease are ongoing. Nonsteroidal MRAs hold significant potential as pivotal treatment targets across the cardiorenal disease spectrum. This review will focus on the effects of finerenone on cardiorenal disease.

New CKD drugs are promising, but need stronger efficacy data, kidney docs say: GlobalData

In total, the chronic kidney disease market is forecast to balloon in size from $2.2 billion last year to $13.5 billion by 2033, during which time a range of new treatments are on track to make their debuts. Though a host of drugs currently under development are poised to massively expand the existing market for chronic kidney disease (CKD) treatments, they’ll need to go further to win the support of doctors, according to a new report. The segment is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate of nearly 20% over the course of a decade, according to GlobalData’s estimates. The report comprises the seven major markets of the U.S., France, Germany, Italy, Spain, the U.K. and Japan, though GlobalData noted that the U.S. will be a disproportionately large contributor to that growth, thanks to its higher prevalence of CKD and costs of prescription medications. In total, the CKD market is forecast to balloon in size from $2.2 billion last year to $13.5 billion by 2033, during which time a range of new treatments are on track to make their debuts. Among those now in development are ProKidney’s cell therapy rilparencel, also known as React, and AstraZeneca’s combinations of zibotentan and dapagliflozin, and balcinrenone and dapagliflozin—all of which are currently in clinical trials. Meanwhile, Novo Nordisk is also exploring a potential expanded indication for Ozempic in CKD. Just last month, Novo shared results from its FLOW study of once-weekly Ozempic’s ability to reduce the risk of major kidney disease events in patients with both CKD and Type 2 diabetes. With a median follow-up period of nearly three and a half years, the study found that participants treated with the GLP-1 had an average 24% risk reduction compared to those assigned to the placebo group, and their rate of kidney function decline was “significantly slower.” Additionally, semaglutide was shown to reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events by 18% and all-cause mortality by 20%. Following that data drop, Novo confirmed that it will pursue expanded approvals for Ozempic in the U.S. and Europe by the end of this year. Despite the promising results from the studies of those and other potential new CKD therapeutics so far, according to GlobalData, many kidney doctors have yet to be convinced to shake up their existing CKD treatment standards and have “mixed views” about tacking on another drug to their patients’ current regimens. “It will be easier for new drug entrants to capture CKD market share if they offer a novel mechanism of action or help to improve compliance,” Kajal Jaddoo, senior pharma analyst at GlobalData, said in the report. “Overall, nephrologists surveyed by GlobalData have indicated that the pipeline for CKD is somewhat promising, but a significant improvement in efficacy would have to be demonstrated by any therapy for it to become either a replacement or add-on to the existing therapies.”

Chronic Kidney Disease Competitive Landscape Report 2023: Comprehensive Insights About 75+ Companies and 95+ Drugs

DUBLIN, May 5, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Chronic Kidney Disease - Competitive landscape, 2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. This report provides comprehensive insights about 75+ companies and 95+ drugs in Chronic Kidney Disease Competitive landscape. It covers the therapeutics assessment by product type, stage, route of administration, and molecule type. It further highlights the inactive pipeline products in this space. In March 2023, POXEL SA, announced the publication of preclinical results in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) for PXL770, a novel, first-in-class direct adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activator. For the first time, POXEL SA showed beneficial effects of a direct and selective AMPK activator in preclinical ADPKD models from three species mouse, human, and dog. These results confirm the potential utility of AMPK activation for this disease and support the development of PXL770 in a Phase 2 clinical program for ADPKD. In February 2023, AstraZeneca announced the successful completion of the acquisition of CinCor Pharma, Inc. The acquisition bolsters AstraZeneca's cardiorenal pipeline by adding baxdrostat (CIN-107), an aldosterone synthase inhibitor (ASI) for blood pressure lowering in treatment-resistant hypertension, to its cardiorenal portfolio. In January 2023, The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has accepted a supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) for Jardiance (empagliflozin) tablets, which is being investigated as a potential treatment to reduce the risk of kidney disease progression and cardiovascular death in adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD), Boehringer Ingelheim and Eli Lilly and Company announced. In November 2022, The Medical Research Council Population Health Research Unit (MRC PHRU) at the University of Oxford, which designed, conducted and analyzed EMPA-KIDNEY in a scientific collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim and Eli Lilly and Company, announced that EMPA-KIDNEY phase III clinical trial met its primary endpoint by demonstrating a significant kidney and cardiovascular benefit for adults living with chronic kidney disease (CKD). When treated with Jardiance (empagliflozin), the risk of kidney disease progression or cardiovascular death was significantly reduced by 28% vs. placebo (HR; 0.72; 95% CI 0.64 to 0.82; P< 0.0001). In October 2022, Revelation Biosciences Inc. announced positive results in a preclinical model of acute kidney injury (AKI), chronic kidney disease (CKD). Treatment with REVTx-300 significantly reduced renal cortical fibrosis in a dose dependent manner in the medium and high dose groups (21.7% reduction (p < 0.05) and 29.3% (p < 0.05), respectively) and was comparable to a known TGF inhibitor of fibrosis used as a positive control (38.1% reduction (P < 0.05)). In October 2022, French Biopharma Company, Poxel SA announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted orphan drug designation (ODD) to PXL770 for the treatment of patients with autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). PXL770 is a novel, first-in-class direct adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activator - and is also a phase 2 ready ADPKD asset, subject to additional financing.
