Summary

The goal of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of finerenone versus spironolactone in the treatment of hypertension due to primary aldosteronism.

It will be a randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, parallel-group clinical trial conducted at the Endocrine Hypertension Clinic, Department of Endocrinology, BSMMU. A total of 104 adult patients with confirmed primary aldosteronism will be enrolled and randomized equally to receive either finerenone (10-40 mg/day) or spironolactone (25-100mg/day) for 48 weeks. Study drugs will be titrated to achieve target blood pressure (\<140/90mmHg) and unsuppressed plasma renin concentration (\>15 mU/L). The primary efficacy outcome will be the time and daily dose required to attain this composite endpoint. Secondary outcomes include changes in clinic and ambulatory blood pressure, plasma aldosterone and renin levels, renal function (eGFR), urinary albumin excretion, left ventricular mass index, and quality of life. Safety outcomes will include adverse events, particularly hyperkalaemia and deterioration of renal function.
