Background

CANA reduces kidney failure and CV events in people with type 2 diabetes who have chronic kidney disease. Given the international scope of the CREDENCE study, we assessed the efficacy of CANA according to self-reported race and ethnicity.

Methods

4401 participants with eGFR 30-<90mL/min/1.73m2 and urinary albumin:creatinine ratio >300-5000mg/g were randomized to CANA 100mg daily or matching placebo. Outcomes were analyzed in prespecified analyses by race and ethnicity, and results are reported without adjustment for multiplicity.

Results

The cohort enrolled were racially and ethnically diverse (n=2931 [67%] White, n=224 [5%] Black or African American, n=877 [20%] Asian, n=369 [8%] Other race, n=1423 [32%] Hispanic/Latino, n=2978 [68%] Non Hispanic/Latino [including not reported/unknown ethnicity]). CANA reduced the primary outcome of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), sustained doubling serum creatinine (dSCr), or renal or CV death overall, with no evidence the effect differed in racial (P interaction=0.91) and ethnic subgroups (P interaction=0.31; Figure). Similarly, CANA reduced CV outcomes and the renal composite of ESKD, sustained dSCr or renal death, with no differences among the different racial and ethnic groups (all P interaction≥0.06).

Conclusion

CANA reduces the incidence of renal and CV events in people with type 2 diabetes and substantial albuminuria, with no evidence that effects differ in racial or ethnic groups, thereby supporting the breadth of use across a diverse group of patients.
