Chronic kidney disease is a common complication of diabetes. Progressive deterioration of renal function is responsible for an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases. The end-stage renal disease with the vital recourse to dialysis sessions remains a major burden for the patients as well as for the society given the major cost of this treatment. Recently, two classes of drugs have demonstrated significant benefits in terms of cardio-renal protection: SGLT2 inhibitors (gliflozins) and finerenone, a selective nonsteroidal mineralo-receptor antagonist. Given their different mechanisms of action, a combination of the two pharmacological classes seems logical and promising based on a number of exploratory current analyses and considerations.
