Diabetes Mellitus and Chronic Kidney Disease: The Future Is Being Surpassed.

| Sumario: | Diabetes mellitus (DM) continues to be a global world health problem. Despite medical advances, both DM and chronic kidney disease (CKD) remain global health issues with high mortality and limited options to prevent end-stage renal failure. Current therapies encompass five classes of drugs: (1) angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) or angiotensin II receptor blockers (AIIRB); (2) sodium-glucose-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors; (3) glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA); and (4) an antagonist of type 1 endothelin receptor (ET1R) with proven efficacy to reduce albuminuria and proteinuria. (5) The mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) finerenone has been tested in RCTs as a kidney protective agent. In our review, we summarize many of the principal trials that have generated evidence in this regard. Many novel agents-many of them proven not only for DM management but also for the treatment of obesity with or without DM or heart failure (HF)-are now in development and may be added to the five classical pillars: other non-steroidal MRA (balcinrenone); aldosterone synthase inhibitors (baxdrostat and vicadrostat); other GLP-1 RA (tirzepatide, survodutide, retatrutide, and cagrilintide); ET1 R antagonists, (zibotentan); and soluble guanylate cyclase activators (avenciguat). These new agents aim to slow disease progression further and reduce cardiovascular risk. Future strategies rely on integrated, patient-centered approaches and personalized therapy to curb renal disease and its related complications. |
