Frequently asked questions about Finerenone: intact

What is finerenone used for?

Finerenone is a small molecule drug developed by Bayer AG. The clinical program described here evaluated a pediatric formulation of finerenone in healthy male subjects to investigate its pharmacokinetics, meaning how the body absorbs, distributes, and clears the drug. This specific study was not conducted in patients with a disease indication.

Who makes finerenone?

Finerenone is developed by Bayer AG, which trades on the OTC market under the ticker BAYRY. Bayer sponsored the Phase 1 pharmacokinetic study of a pediatric finerenone formulation conducted in Germany.

What phase is finerenone in?

The finerenone program described here is in Phase 1. The single listed trial, NCT02957396, is a completed Phase 1 study, so this asset remains in clinical development and is investigational rather than approved for the pharmacokinetic evaluation described.

What clinical trials is finerenone in?

Finerenone has been studied in NCT02957396, titled Study of Finerenone to Investigate a Paediatric Formulation in Healthy Male Subjects. This completed Phase 1 trial enrolled 16 healthy male volunteers aged 18 years and older in Germany, used an active-controlled design, and was not blinded.

Is finerenone the same as BAY94-8862?

Yes. Finerenone is also known as BAY94-8862, and the 20 mg intact tablet is one specific formulation referenced under that name. Searches for BAY94-8862 refer to the same small molecule developed by Bayer AG.

What does the finerenone pharmacokinetic study measure?

The completed Phase 1 study NCT02957396 investigated a pediatric formulation of finerenone in healthy male subjects to characterize pharmacokinetics, which describes how the drug is absorbed, distributed, metabolized, and eliminated. It enrolled 16 participants in Germany, used an active control, and was not double blinded.
