Kidney Transplantion Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Pilot Trial of the Effect of Dietary and Exercise Intervention on Insulin Resistance and Metabolic Parameters in De Novo Renal Transplant Recipients on Prograf (Tacrolimus)
The purpose of this trial is to investigate whether a combined dietary and exercise intervention, added to standard care, reduces the expected frequency of insulin resistance in renal (kidney) transplant recipients on tacrolimus.
This is an open-label (all people know the identity of the intervention), prospective (study following participants forward in time), single-arm, multi-center (conducted in more than 1 center), interventional pilot study of the effects of a combined dietary and exercise intervention on glucose metabolism. The duration of this study will be 6 months and will include following visits: Baseline, Week 4, Week 12, and Week 24. Dietary compliance will be evaluated with a 3-day food record and during weekly telephone conversations and face-to-face visits with a dietician. Exercise compliance will be measured using an exercise log presented to the co-ordinator at the end of each month. Primarily, participants with insulin resistance will be assessed by Homeostasis Model Assessment-Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) of greater than 1 at 6 months. Participants' safety and tolerability will be monitored throughout the study. ;
