You just need albuminuria, and you can prescribe this and reduce the risk of heart failure. Actually, in the same session of the European Society of Cardiology meeting, we had a presentation of data that showed therapies that can affect people with HFpEF, but also stage B heart failure, which is a precursor of any heart failure. You can achieve reduction in heart failure hospitalization. That’s truly incredible news for people with heart failure.","_key":"8da91acbab340"}],"_type":"block"},{"markDefs":[],"children":[{"marks":[],"text":"","_key":"74c72318b284","_type":"span"}],"_type":"block","style":"normal","_key":"be87df6001b3"},{"_type":"block","style":"normal","_key":"28dad979b45c","markDefs":[],"children":[{"_type":"span","marks":["strong","em"],"text":"Transcript edited for clarity.","_key":"14399e1d826d"}]}],"_updatedAt":"2021-10-15T16:19:22Z","documentGroupMapping":[{"_key":"daadd1209d8e","_ref":"a06fa91b-ed75-4bb1-ab2a-77152c6732d1","_type":"reference"}]},{"_updatedAt":"2021-10-13T16:42:10Z","body":[{"videoID":"6271751241001","source":"brightcove","_key":"e3a0f05699c1","_type":"video"},{"style":"normal","_key":"e2f2b545bb19","markDefs":[],"children":[{"_type":"span","marks":[],"text":"","_key":"45ef97b84605"}],"_type":"block"},{"_type":"block","style":"normal","_key":"5a5b5b4ffe93","markDefs":[],"children":[{"_type":"span","marks":["strong"],"text":"Transcript:","_key":"185d5b646548"}]},{"children":[{"_type":"span","marks":["strong"],"text":"Rajiv Agarwal, MD, MS: ","_key":"58cc1c4eb2a4"},{"_type":"span","marks":[],"text":"The results presented were published in the ","_key":"7259a93ed6bf"},{"text":"New England Journal of Medicine","_key":"c9a346774bcc","_type":"span","marks":["em"]},{"_type":"span","marks":[],"text":" by Dr Milton Packer and colleagues. They compared the results of kidney failure outcomes in the EMPEROR-Reduced and EMPEROR-Preserved trials. In the EMPEROR-Reduced trial, kidney failure outcome favors empagliflozin. This is the 40% kidney failure composite. But when you look at the EMPEROR-Preserved trial, there’s no difference in that regard between the 2 drugs. When you look at the surface to see what’s happening, it turns out that a number of things might be happening. One, when you take patients with HFrEF [heart failure with reduced ejection fraction], it might improve their cardiac output. It might improve the kidney perfusion. It might do many things that might not happen in the HFpEF [heart failure with preserved ejection fraction] population; therefore, you’re seeing a kidney-specific benefit.

In the HFpEF trial, although there’s a preservation of the slope, there’s no signal for harm in terms of the kidney failure outcomes that look at 40% eGFR [estimated glomerular filtration rate] decline, etc. I don’t think the results are internally inconsistent. There are probably differences in the level of albuminuria in the 2 populations, and other characteristics that are hard to control for across trials that might contribute to these differences in these seemingly disparate outcomes. But I don’t think this is of great surprise. To the patient, it means you can use these drugs. They’ll keep you out of the hospital, breathing better, and they’re not dangerous to the kidney.

If we note an increase in albuminuria, we note an increase in CV risk.

Nicholas, MD, MPH, PhD: ","_key":"1eaf7fbe6d710"},{"_type":"span","marks":[],"text":"Those are all excellent questions, and I’m really pleased that we’re talking about chronic kidney disease today, primarily because this is a significant public health issue not only in the United States but around the world. Currently, around 37 million adults in the United States have chronic kidney disease. That’s a huge number. It’s about 14% to 15% of our population. And unfortunately, the vast majority of these individuals don’t even know that they have chronic kidney disease. And when we look at the numbers worldwide, about 850 million individuals worldwide have chronic kidney disease. The reason why we’re talking about this today and why we’re still concerned about this is because of the huge morbidity and mortality risk that patients with chronic kidney disease have, particularly when it comes to cardiovascular disease. As a result, it’s very related or, I should say, interrelated. And so it’s important that we speak about not just chronic kidney disease but also cardiovascular disease. Now, chronic kidney disease, it’s a disease that’s an abnormality, when you look at the definitions and abnormality of the kidneys, whether we’re looking at function or structure that has been present for more than 3 months. And there are ways that we can diagnose chronic kidney disease in patients. But it’s important that once we diagnose these individuals that we [are able] to stage their disease based on their level of kidney function. And that allows us to do many things. For one, it allows us to risk-stratify these individuals when it comes to their rate of progression of chronic kidney disease to kidney failure. But also when it comes to their cardiovascular risk. So chronic kidney disease is based on stages 1 through 5 where stage 1 is normal kidney function. And…stage 5 is kidney failure. Most patients are within chronic kidney disease stage 3. So you can imagine that for an individual who has chronic kidney disease, it’s going to be important for them to know where they are in the scheme of things so that providers can initiate the right therapies for these individuals and follow them over time to decrease their risk of progression [of] kidney failure as well as their cardiovascular risk. Now, you’ve asked about the incidence of chronic kidney disease. It turns out that the incidence of chronic kidney disease has been increasing over the years. However, it’s difficult to pinpoint the actual incidence, primarily because it varies [based] on many different factors, such as different countries where we look at incidence, but also on age groups as well as whether [the patient is] male or female or other factors. We did a study recently…myself and my colleagues, we have a very large chronic kidney disease registry, and we look specifically at the incidence of chronic kidney disease in patients with diabetes, diabetes being the most common cause of chronic kidney disease. And we were able to identify the incidence rate ratio for different racial ethnic groups when it comes to chronic kidney disease in these patients. And we identify that the individuals who are Native Hawaiian Pacific Islanders have the highest incidence rate ratio, followed by Black and African American individuals, as well as Alaska Natives and American Indians, and then followed by Hispanic [individuals]. So that tells us a number of different things. These are racial and ethnic minority groups who have very high risk for chronic kidney disease. And it’s one of the groups whom we really should be focusing on as well.","_key":"1eaf7fbe6d711"}],"_type":"block"},{"style":"normal","_key":"2cd102088d51","markDefs":[],"children":[{"_type":"span","marks":[],"text":"","_key":"56dc520759b00"}],"_type":"block"},{"_key":"e0ffe824d31e","markDefs":[],"children":[{"_type":"span","marks":["strong"],"text":"Ryan Haumschild, PharmD, MS, MBA: ","_key":"9d7d80d0ff7b0"},{"marks":[],"text":"Thank thank you so much for that great overview.

And unfortunately, if you have 2 conditions of those that you had mentioned, so type 2 diabetes plus, for example, heart failure or chronic kidney disease, your outcomes are expected to be worse. You will be at greater risk for adverse outcomes than someone who just has a diagnosis of 1 of those conditions. So unfortunately, the risk is compounded when you have more of those conditions.

And so, Dr Cohn, as we bring in your expertise, we know that CKD and patients with multiple comorbidities pose an increased economic burden, especially when those patients progress through CKD, if not identified early by their primary care physician…. Could you characterize some of the economic costs, whether it’s directed [at] the comorbidities or CKD directly? What are the key cost drivers? And is this affected by comorbidities?

Obviously, renal replacement therapy is very expensive, but that’s a very smaller subset of patients with CKD. A lot of the spend is in earlier stages of CKD and really falls into 2 different buckets. One is cardiovascular, so a myocardial infarction, stroke, and admission for congestive heart failure are all very significantly elevated in the CKD population relative to non-CKD. The others are specific complications of the CKD itself, and those include things like hyperkalemia. Crashing into dialysis is a very expensive way of entering renal replacement therapy for those who haven’t been identified in advance. So those are some of the major cost drivers. There are also significant disease comorbidities where diabetes, for example, has a high prevalence of neuropathy. So, too, [with] CKD. You put those two together, and advanced neuropathy winds up with chronic peripheral leg disease, diabetic wound infections, peripheral arterial disease. All of those are major cost drivers. And as you progress through stages of CKD, the cost increases. So for example, the cost of managing CKD [stages] 4 and 5 is about 50% higher than managing 2 and 3. So as [the disease] progresses, costs rise.

And really, as we evaluate that, looking at the total cost of care, whether it be dialysis in more advanced CKD or whether it’s earlier on where we have cardiovascular complications that make disease more difficult to treat. And so how do we evaluate that whole patient, make sure we’re developing a plan not just for CKD, not just for cardiovascular, but the interplay between them? As we transition, it’s really important, as we talk about cost control and early identification, to make sure that patients are being seen by the right provider. And I think sometimes, traditionally we might think that’s only going to be a nephrologist. But really, a lot of times these patients…whether it’s serum creatinine or the albumin, it really happens in the primary care or the outpatient environment. And so, Dr Anderson, I know that you have a lot of familiarity of courting care for a lot of patients. And so as we talk about [patients with] CKD, maybe you can help characterize for us who really takes care of a [patient with] CKD. Is it the hospitalist?

But since we know that diabetes is the No. 1 cause of progression of chronic kidney disease, the vast majority of type 2 diabetes in the United States, 90%-plus is taken care of by primary care providers and clinicians. And that means physicians, nurse practitioners, [and] physician assistants. So we really have the opportunity to be on the front line of managing these people. And we have a lot of things in primary care that we’re responsible for. Cardio-renal-metabolic is probably the chief of the things that we need to be doing. So we need to be screening these patients. We do lipid panels once a year. We do basic metabolic panels once a year. So we’re pretty good…. What we’ve not been good at is doing uACR [urine albumin-creatinine ratio] and screening for albuminuria. And that’s probably a legacy of “so what?” For years we’d have somebody on maximum RAAS [renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system] inhibition, blood pressure at target, trying to control their diabetes, telling them to not take anti-inflammatories, and that type of thing. But we really had nothing else to offer them until the past few years. Now it is much more imperative that we do both the renal function as well as your uACR. That’s the urine albumin creatinine ratio because frequently microalbuminuria will precede a decrease in kidney function. And to your point, trying to identify these people early.... Anybody who has a touchpoint with these patients does not get to abdicate responsibility for their care. And so for many years: Here’s my silo, and here’s when I got to stay in it, and here’s the cardiology silo, and here’s the nephrology silo, and here’s the endocrinology silo.
