Filter by:This is a 2-year, randomized, multicenter, open-label, 2-arm study evaluating the graft function of everolimus and reduced CNI versus MPA and standard CNI in adult de novo renal transplant recipients.
The purpose of this study is to see how the body and the cancer react to carfilzomib, including measuring the amount of the study drug in the blood at certain times following dosing. This study is being done in people with normal kidney function and those with end-stage renal disease to see if they respond differently to the study drug.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of ferumoxytol for the repletion of iron stores and correction of iron deficiency anaemia in patients with severe chronic kidney disease or end-stage chronic kidney disease on peritoneal dialysis, and to assess the impact of the administration of a ferumoxytol dose on various markers for iron stores, as well as on various markers for inflammation and oxidative stress.
This observational study will evaluate the efficacy and use of Mircera (methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta) in patients with Stage V chronic kidney disease on haemodialysis receiving an erythropoietin prior to study entry. Attending physicians should have made the decision of placing the patient on Mircera in advance and not related to the study. The therapy will be administered by the attendant treating physician according to specifications in the package insert guidelines and to the routine of the site. Eligible patients will be followed for 6 months.
The purpose of this study is to examine the colchicine concentration before and after the administration of rifampicin.
The purposes of this study are: (1) to compare the body composition, physical activity, physical function, and quality of life between patients with and without CKD after CABG; and (2) to analyze the relationships among body composition, physical activity, and physical function in this population. It is expected that patients after CABG with CKD have the worse body composition, physical function, and quality of life than patients after CABG without CKD; and patients with higher physical activity levels have the better body composition, physical function, and quality of life.
We are the missing link in clinical trials, connecting patients and researchers seamlessly and conveniently using a mobile health platform to advance medical research. We make it easy for patients to contribute to research for medical conditions that matter most to them, regardless of their location or ability to travel.
The purpose of this study was to measure how much of the study drug, LY2409021, gets into the blood stream and how long it takes the body to get rid of it when given to participants with different levels of kidney function. There were five study groups. Each participant only enrolled in one group. Participants in groups 1 through 4 were healthy or have mild, moderate, or severe kidney disease. They completed one study period lasting about 29 days. Study group 5 enrolled participants with kidney disease who were on dialysis. They have completed two study periods which together last about 59 days. Screening was required within 21 days prior to the start of the study for all participants.
Vitamin D deficiency is common in the general population and more common in children with chronic kidney disease. Vitamin D is very important for bone health, especially in children with chronic kidney disease. To date, several studies using different doses of vitamin D have been tried to correct vitamin D deficiency, but none has been completely successful. The investigators are comparing two different doses of vitamin D to determine which one is more effective at correcting and maintaining normal blood levels of vitamin D. The investigators hypothesize that a higher percentage of children receiving a higher dose of vitamin D will be vitamin D replete at the end of 6 months. This study will enroll 80 children 9 to 18 years old who have chronic kidney disease (CKD) and can take pills. They will be enrolled from Chronic Renal Insufficiency Clinic, the Hemodialysis Unit, Peritoneal Dialysis Clinic and Transplant Clinic at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the hemoglobin response (efficacy), safety, and tolerability of orally administered AKB-6548 in participants with Chronic Kidney Disease (pre-dialysis) with anemia with dosing for 20 weeks.
