Most CKD burden arises from early stages of disease, when reductions in eGFR are modest and symptoms often absent. CKD and cardiovascular disease share a bidirectional relationship mediated by common risk factors and pathophysiologic pathways. Even mild reductions in eGFR or low-grade albuminuria are associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Accumulating evidence suggests that primary prevention of CKD may be feasible. In this narrative review, we examine pharmacologic strategies with potential relevance to preventing incident CKD among individuals without established disease at baseline, defined by eGFR ≥60 ml/min per 1.73 m 2 and absence of albuminuria. Evidence derives largely from secondary and post hoc analyses of cardiovascular outcome trials evaluating sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, and angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors. Across multiple trials, sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors consistently attenuate eGFR decline and reduce incident or progressive albuminuria, including among participants without CKD at baseline, providing the most consistent evidence supporting a potential role in primary prevention. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists demonstrate similar but less uniform effects, driven largely by reductions in albuminuria. Evidence supporting mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists and angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors for primary prevention is more limited and less consistent. Although randomized trials specifically designed to evaluate incident CKD are lacking, these findings suggest that therapies developed for cardiometabolic disease may modify early markers of kidney injury. A selective, risk-based approach to earlier intervention may represent an emerging strategy to preserve kidney health and reduce long-term cardiovascular and renal risk.</p>","PeriodicalId":520592,"journal":{"name":"Clinical journal of the American Society of Nephrology : CJASN","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148671929","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
