Empiric Versus Selective Prevention Strategies for Kidney Stone Disease

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

The aims of this study are to 1) Conduct a randomized clinical trial of selective versus empiric diet plus pharmacologic therapy in high-risk stone formers and 2) Determine adverse effects from, and adherence to selective and empiric strategies.

Clinical Trial Description

Diet and pharmacologic interventions for preventing future kidney stone episodes are effective, however clinical guideline panels disagree on whether clinicians should perform selective therapy: performing 24-hour urine testing to guide choosing interventions to correct abnormal urinary parameters. The alternative strategy is empiric therapy: applying interventions without 24-hour urine testing. While 24-hour urine testing is considered the standard of care by nephrology and urology specialties for higher risk patients, the American College of Physicians does not recommend 24-hour urine testing. This is a randomized clinical trial of selective versus empiric therapy for patients with presumed idiopathic calcium stone disease, representing >80% of the kidney stone population. The primary outcome is change in urinary supersaturation, which associates with symptomatic stone recurrence. We will recruit patients with presumed idiopathic calcium stone disease with at least 2 stone events within the previous 5 years. Participants will be randomly assigned to empiric diet plus thiazide with potassium citrate daily, or to selective diet plus pharmacologic therapy based on the 24-hour urine abnormalities identified at baseline and adjusted during follow-up. The primary outcomes will be the calculated calcium oxalate and calcium phosphate supersaturations. In addition, we will determine adverse effects from, and adherence to, selective and empiric strategies. ;
