Use of Urinary Cell-Cycle Arrest Biomarkers in Contrast-Associated Nephropathy After Coronary Angiography

Contrast-induced Nephropathy Clinical Trial

Official title: Prognostic Value of Urinary TIMP-2/ IGFBP7 in Intra-Arterial Contrast-Associated Acute Kidney Injury

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Radiological examinations that require the administration of iodinated contrasts (IC) for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes are essential in current clinical practice, and their use in interventional procedures has been progressively increasing.

IC can cause kidney damage, so there is caution in their use in at-risk populations. This fact may limit its diagnostic use, with data on underutilization of interventional techniques in patients with renal insufficiency, which worsen their prognosis.

In addition, once the use of IC contrasts is decided, preventive measures, such as hyperhydration,are used and can have potential side effects, especially in patients at risk of heart failure (acute coronary syndrome, low left ventricular ejection fraction).

New biomarkers of kidney damage have recently been developed, based on the detection of molecules expressed by the kidney in situations of early damage. The quantitative determination of cell cycle arrest proteins (Tissue Inhibitor of metalloproteinase 2 (TIMP2) and Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Protein -7 (IGFBP7)) can be predictive of the development of moderate to severe contrast-associated acute kidney injury.

Urinary determination of [TIMP-2] x [IGFBP7] in patients with ACS (acute coronary syndromes) before cardiac catheterization would allow early identification of those patients vulnerable to IC-induced toxicity and adjustment of preventive measures.

Clinical Trial Description

Urinary determination of [TIMP-2] x [IGFBP7] in patients with ACS undergoing cardiac catheterization would allow early identification of those patients vulnerable to IC-induced toxicity and adjustment of both appropriate preventive measures.

A prospective, descriptive observational study will be carried out to determine sensitivity and specificity of the urinary determination of TIMP2-IGFBP7 and predictive values in the early diagnosis of contrast-associated acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients admitted to the Coronary Care Unit (CCU) in a spanish hospital.

OBJECTIVES

• PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: To determine the operational characteristics (sensitivity, specificity) of the TIMP2-IGFBP7 biomarker in routine clinical practice, in the early diagnosis of contrast-induced AKI (acute renal injury) in patients admitted to the CCU, exposed to iodinated contrasts. The established renal failure is defined as KDIGO (Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes) stage ≥ 2 in the 24 to 72 hours after the administration of contrasts.

• SECONDARY OBJECTIVES

Evaluate these parameters according to the patient's initial risk level:

• Estimated renal function upon admission

• Initial severity estimated by GRACE score

• Sex

• Age

• Contrast media type and volume

• Patient weight

• Dose of contrast

• Diabetes

A single determination (10 ml of fresh urine) should be collected in a sterile container and the laboratory should centrifuge them within the time of collection. Neither the attending physicians nor the investigators will know the results, and the treatment will not be influenced.

The result is reported as a single value which is the concentration of TIMP-2 (ng / mL) multiplied by the concentration of IGFBP7 (ng / mL) divided by 1000. The result is reported without any unit or concentrations of individual biomarkers. As previously reported, a value of> 0.3 identifies patients with a high probability of presenting a moderate to severe AKI (acute kidney injury) in 12 hours, while a value of ≤ 0.3 identifies patients with a low risk of developing a moderate to serious AKI

An aliquot of urine will be stored at -80 ° C in the Clinical Analysis Department ;
