BACKGROUND: The management of hypertriglyceridemia in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is important. Pemafibrate, a novel selective peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha modulator with less toxic effects on liver and kidney function than those of other fibrates, has recently been approved for the treatment of patients with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) lower than 30 mL/min/1.73 m2. However, the efficacy and safety of pemafibrate in patients with severe renal impairment have not yet been established.
METHODS: This single-center, retrospective observational study included 12 outpatients with CKD and hypertriglyceridemia, who were newly started on low-dose pemafibrate (0.1 mg/day) treatment between December 2021 and May 2023 and whose eGFRs were less than 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 at baseline. Blood samples were collected before and at 12 weeks after pemafibrate treatment.
RESULTS: After 12 weeks of treatment, the serum triglyceride level was significantly decreased, whereas the high-density lipoprotein cholesterol level was significantly increased. The serum alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, and uric acid levels were also significantly decreased, without worsening of the eGFR and serum creatinine levels. In the subgroup analysis, there were no significant differences in the changes in clinical parameters regardless of statin use and CKD stage at baseline.
CONCLUSIONS: Low-dose pemafibrate administration in patients with severe renal impairment resulted in significant improvements in triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and serum uric acid levels, and liver function, without adverse events.
