Filter by:The purposes are 1. to measure the effect of dialysis with glucose in dialysis water on blood pressure, pulse rate, plasma concentration of glucose, plasma concentrations og insulin, glucagon, growth hormone, renin, angiotensin II, endothelin and body temperature, and 2. to analyse the relationship between the changes in blood pressure and changes in vasoactive hormones
The purpose is to measure the effect of glucose in the dialysis water on blood pressure, pulse rate, and plasma glucose with and without body temperature control
Magnesium iron hydroxycarbonate is a phosphate binder that absorbs phosphate from food, reducing the amount that the body can absorb. The purpose of this study is to determine how well a range of different doses of fermagate are tolerated by the subjects in the trial.
The purpose of this study was to determine the dose ranges of peginesatide administered intravenously or subcutaneously that maintained hemoglobin in participants on dialysis whose hemoglobin values were stable on epoetin (alfa or beta).
The purpose of this study is to examine whether the inhibition of aldosterone will result in lower excretion of protein via urine. The hypothesis is that if loss of protein is lowered, progression of renal disease with be slower than otherwise expected.
The purpose of this study is to find out if a new investigational hepatitis B virus vaccine, HEPLISAV™, is safe in patients at least 40 years of age who have progressive loss of kidney function with more advanced stage 3 (GFR ≤ 45 mL/min) or stage 4 chronic kidney disease, and are expected to eventually go on hemodialysis.
This study will assess the influence of severe renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics of licarbazepine and its glucuronide conjugate after single oral administration in healthy subjects and in subjects with stable impaired renal function.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether sodium bicarbonate is effective in the prevention of sodium-induced nephropathy
A study to evaluate the effect of kidney disease, from mild to severe disease, on a diabetes medication
RATIONALE: Dexamethasone is used to treat multiple myeloma. Drugs used in chemotherapy may stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Plasma exchange is a process in which certain cells are separated from the plasma in the blood by a machine and then only the cells are returned to the patient. Dexamethasone and plasma exchange may be an effective treatment for acute kidney failure caused by multiple myeloma. It is not yet known whether giving dexamethasone and chemotherapy together with plasma exchange is more effective than giving dexamethasone and chemotherapy alone in treating patients with multiple myeloma and acute kidney failure. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying dexamethasone, chemotherapy, and plasma exchange to see how well they work compared with dexamethasone and chemotherapy alone in treating patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma and acute kidney failure.
