Filter by:The clinical trial objectives were to evaluate the dialysability of the sugammadex-rocuronium complex; it's safety and efficacy in participants with severe renal impairment.
The objective of this study is to compare the effects of two liver transplant immunosuppression regimens on renal function. Patients receiving the standard combination of prednisone and high-dose tacrolimus, a drug with known nephrotoxicity (Arm A) will be compared to patients receiving prednisone, low-dose tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) (Arm B). MMF is an immunosuppression agent that has no associated nephrotoxicity. The primary end point of the study will be renal function as measured by glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Thirty pediatric liver transplant recipients will be randomized to these two arms in a 1:1 ratio (i.e. 15 patients in each group). Secondary end points will measure patient and graft outcome and incidence of immunosuppression-related complications, including: neurotoxicity, diabetes mellitus, growth retardation, vomiting, diarrhea, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, thrombocytopenia, anemia, leukopenia, acute or chronic liver graft rejection, posttransplant lymphoproliferative disease (PTLD), viral infections, fungal infections and bacterial infections.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether erythropoietin is effective in preventing acute kidney dysfunction after coronary artery bypass grafting surgery.
A study to determine the most appropriate dose of MK7418 in heart failure patients presenting with symptoms of volume overload requiring increased diuretic doses.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate three things. The first being whether azacitidine is absorbed in the body at the same rate or proportion for different concentrations. The second is to determine the effect renal impairment has or does not have on the absorption of azacitidine. The third is to determine if azacitidine is safe and well tolerated in patients with renal function impairment.
Although there is a well documented risk of acute renal failure with the iodinated contrast agents, the implication of intravenous gadolinium-based contrast agents in nephrotoxicity remains controversial. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety profile of gadoterate meglumine (Dotarem®) in patients with chronic renal insufficiency by evaluating the rate of patients experiencing contrast-induced nephrotoxicity following the injection of gadoterate meglumine.
This clinical trial is designed to provide additional information on the safety and tolerability of vildagliptin (50 mg once daily (qd)) when used in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and moderate or severe renal insufficiency.
Muscle wasting is common in advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) and adversely affects morbidity and mortality. In 2/3 of males with advanced CKD serum testosterone (TT) levels are reduced, and likely contributes to the wasting. As TT in relatively safe physiologic replacement doses, increases muscle mass in otherwise normal TT deficient subjects, we hypothesize that physiologic TT replacement will be effective in preventing and treating the loss of muscle mass and function in CKD patients, will improve quality of life and may reduce some cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors.
To determine the pharmacokinetics and safety of megestrol acetate after a single oral 300 mg dose of megestrol acetate concentrated suspension in healthy subjects, and subjects with varying degrees of renal impairment
The purpose of this sudy is to determined the effect of dialysate volume and treatment time on phosphate and calcium removal in stage V chronickidney disease patients treated by hemodialysis using the System One (NxStage Medical, Lawrence, MA)
