NCT ID: NCT02633046 Completed - Clinical trials for Idiopathic Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis

Acthar for Treatment-Resistant or Treatment-Intolerant Proteinuria

PODOCYTE
Start date: October 10, 2016
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a condition that harms the kidney "filters" that remove waste from the blood. Proteins are supposed to stay in the blood. Damaged "filters" let protein get into the kidney. FSGS is a serious condition that can lead to kidney failure. The only treatment for kidney failure is dialysis or kidney transplant. Proteinuria means too much protein came through the kidneys into the urine. If the doctor cannot figure out what is causing the problem, it is primary (idiopathic) FSGS. This kind of FSGS is very hard to treat. This study will test Acthar in patients with this condition who have not responded to other treatments. It primarily investigates how well the therapy is tolerated by the patients and how well they respond to this treatment.

NCT ID: NCT02632877 Completed - Diabetic Foot Ulcer Clinical Trials

Efficacy of Pirfenidone Plus MODD in Diabetic Foot Ulcers

Start date: January 2014
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) develop because of the interaction of predisposing factors like neuropathy, angiopathy and infection. Likewise, environmental factors like lesion hygiene, diet and life style. DFU results as a complication in diabetic patients and it is the most common cause of non-traumatic foot amputation in people older than 50 years. Foot amputation decreases patients´ quality of life since only 33% of them will continue walking with the use of a prothesis. However, 30% of patients subjected to amputation will die in the first year after surgery and by the 5th year, post-surgery 50% of them will need the amputation of the remaining body extremity. According to the World Foundation for Diabetes, in Latin America there are 18 million people with Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 (DM2). This number will increase in the next 20 years to 30 million. Medical expenses for diabetic patients are calculated to be around 8,000 million dollars, annually. In Mexico, according to the Mexican Federation for Diabetes there are 6.5-10 millions of diabetic patients. Amputation due to DFU complications has many social and economic implications. In Mexico in 2011 diabetes mellitus complications were the principal cause of death in the institute of mexican social security (IMSS) population. On the other hand, 5-methyl-1-phenyl-2-(1h)-pyridone (PFD) is considered an anti-inflammatory drug that promotes re-epithelization due to fibroblast stimulation, angiogenesis and vasculogenesis during tissue remodeling. According to this, the investigators believe that PFD could play an important role in DFU resolution and for this reason, the investigators consider necessary to analyze the efficacy of 5-methyl-1-phenyl-2-(1h)-pyridone for the treatment of DFU since it has showed improvement in chronic skin ulcers in pilot studies. Nowadays, DFU treatment includes management of metabolism, angiopathy and neuropathy along with broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy. However, several reports indicate it is insufficient for and adequate control of diabetic patients. Then, it is important to develop efficient therapies for the treatment of DFU. In this context, Ketanserin (Sufrexalâ„¢) is a drug to induce scar formation. It has been demonstrated to decrease peripheral vascular resistance, platelet aggregation and improves hemorheologic parameters. Topical administration of ketanserin has showed beneficial effects in inflammation, granulation and epithelization. Since these two drugs have showed beneficial effects in tissue regeneration, the investigators believe it is important to compare their safety and efficacy for the treatment of DFU
