Finerenone vs. Torsemide/Spironolactone for Hypertension and Chronic Kidney Disease
This study is comparing two different treatments for people with high blood pressure (hypertension) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). One treatment is a combination of two drugs, extended-release torsemide and spironolactone. The other treatment is finerenone, along with a loop diuretic like furosemide. Researchers want to see which treatment provides a better overall clinical benefit, looking at how much it lowers blood pressure, reduces protein in the urine (UACR), and affects potassium levels in the blood. You may be able to join if you are an adult aged 18 or older, have CKD with specific kidney function (eGFR) and protein levels, and have high blood pressure. The study plans to enroll 30 participants, but its current status is unclear.
