Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the drug finerenone (Karendia) can improve heart function in participants who are at risk for heart and kidney disease.

The main question it aims to answer is whether adding finerenone to standard-of-care heart failure medical therapies will beneficially alter the heart structure and function of people who have risk factors for heart and kidney complications and whose left side of the heart is enlarged.

The researchers will compare finerenone to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if finerenone improves heart structure and function.

Participants will:

* take a finerenone or a placebo tablet once a day for 12 months
* have a cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (cMRI; a safe, non-invasive scan to measure heart mass, stiffness and function) test at the beginning of the study and 12 months later
* visit the clinic after one, three, six and twelve months to assess overall health and/or perform blood or urine tests

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Finerenone is a potent and selective oral non-steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist that has demonstrated marked cardiovascular benefits in people living with diabetic kidney disease, heart failure with mildly reduced ejection fraction, and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. However, the mechanistic basis of these broad cardiovascular benefits remains unclear.

The FINE-MECH CardioLink-11 trial is a multicentre, prospective, randomized, double-blind trial of finerenone vs placebo in addition to standard-of-care in adults with evidence of left ventricular hypertrophy and cardiorenal risk factors. A total of 156 individuals who provide written informed consent and meet all the inclusion criteria (and none of the exclusion criteria) will be assigned (1:1) to receive either finerenone or placebo QD for 12 months. There will be 6-7 clinic visits. Outcome assessors will be blinded to the investigational product allocation and the time point at which each assessment was completed.
