A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Pragmatic Study to Evaluate Finerenone on Clinical Efficacy and Safety in Patients With Heart Failure and Reduced Ejection Fraction Who Are Intolerant of or Not Eligible for Treatment With Steroidal Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonists (FINALITY-HF)
Finerenone will be compared to placebo to determine efficacy and safety of treatment in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) who are intolerant or ineligible to receive treatment with steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (sMRA).
Inclusion: Provide electronic or written informed consent, either personally or through a legally authorized representative, as permitted by local regulations; Age ≥18 years or legal age of majority if >18 years in the participant's country of residence; Symptomatic HFrEF per protocol defined criteria; Not on sMRA due to history of intolerance, contraindication, or ineligibility for treatment; Negative pregnancy test and agreement to use adequate contraception during trial (female participants only).
Exclusion: Treatment with non-steroidal MRA (nsMRA); Documented prior history of severe hyperkalemia in the setting of MRA use; Prior or planned heart transplant; Concomitant systemic therapy with potent cytochrome P450 isoenzyme 3A4 (CYP3A4) inhibitors, or moderate or potent CYP3A4 inducers; Concurrent or previous participation in another interventional clinical study using an investigational agent within 30 days prior to randomization; Acute myocardial infarction, coronary revascularization, valve replacement/repair, or implantation of a cardiac resynchronization therapy device within 30 days or planned; Hemodynamically significant (severe) uncorrected primary cardiac valvular disease considered by the investigator to be the primary cause of heart failure; Symptomatic bradycardia or second- or third-degree heart block without a pacemaker; Cardiomyopathy due to known acute inflammatory heart disease, infiltrative diseases, accumulation diseases, muscular dystrophies, cardiomyopathy with reversible causes, hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, complex congenital heart disease, or pericardial constriction; Known hypersensitivity to the IP (active substance or excipients); Any other condition or therapy which would make the participant unsuitable for the study; eGFR < 25 mL/min/1.73m² and / or potassium > 5.0 mmol/L; Probable alternative cause of participant's HF.
