Filter by:The purpose of this study is to prove the hypothesis that the progression of renal and cardiovascular disease is more efficiently prevented when the angiotensin II receptor blocker valsartan is added to conventional antihypertensive therapy.
Objectives include description of current practices; assessment over time of K/DOQI goals, clinical outcomes, health resource utilization(HRU) and patient reported outcomes (PRO) and the impact of Sensipar® on these parameters
This trial is conducted in Europe. Objective(s): To evaluate the effect of human growth hormone on infants aged 1 to 2 years with chronic renal insufficiency (CRI) and growth retardation despite an adequate dietary intake. Trial Design: This is an open, parallel group clinical trial with a duration of one year, in which period 50% of patients will receive GH treatment and the other 50% will act as a control group, without treatment. Trial Population: The trial will involve a total of 16 infants aged from 12±3 to 24 months suffering chronic renal insufficiency (Glomerular Filtration Rate less than 60 ml/min/1.73 m2), and growth failure and undergoing conservative treatment or peritoneal dialysis. Include the key inclusion and exclusion criteria.
This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe, and Middle East. Adult patients with chronic kidney disease are treated with growth hormone to assess effect on nutritional status.
Subject incidence of adverse events
To study whether pentoxifylline has additive renoprotective effect in patients taking ARB
Among adults with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) has previously been reported to occur in approximately 10% of children with HIV-infection. The frequency of CKD, its causes, and its natural history in children and adolescents with HIV-infection have not been systematically studied, particularly in the era of new anti-retroviral medications. The primary aim of this study is to determine the how common pediatric HIV-infected individuals have evidence of persistent proteinuria and CKD.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether the efficacy of Epoetin alfa DT is equivalent to that of Epoetin alfa RB for the treatment of anemia in patients with CKD receiving hemodialysis
The purpose of this research is to study the effects and safety of Sensipar approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in patients with kidney failure who are being treated with dialysis and have uncontrolled secondary hyperparathyroidism (HPT).
The chief aim of SHARP was to determine whether lowering blood LDL cholesterol with simvastatin (20mg) plus ezetimibe (10mg) daily could safely reduce the risk of coronary heart disease, non-hemorrhagic stroke and the need for revascularization procedures in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). It also aimed to assess whether lowering LDL cholesterol reduced the rate of loss of renal function in people with CKD who had not commenced dialysis treatment.
