Filter by:This trial aims to evaluate the plasma pharmacokinetics of gefapixant (MK-7264) administered to participants with varying degrees of renal insufficiency (RI) compared to healthy matched controls; and to investigate the extent of MK-7264 removal by hemodialysis (HD) in participants with end stage renal disease (ESRD), following administration of a single 50 mg dose of gefapixant.
The aim of this study is to test if alkali treatment will preserve kidney graft function and diminish the progression of chronic kidney disease in renal transplant patients. Additionally the underlying mechanisms of nephrotoxicity of metabolic acidosis will be investigated in this cohort. This study is a multi-center, prospective, randomized, single-blind (patient), placebo-controlled interventional trial to test the superiority of alkali treatment in comparison to placebo on preservation of kidney function in 300 kidney transplant recipients. The duration of the study will be 2 years for the individual participant. The patients will be randomized into 2 arms: intervention arm (sodium hydrogen carbonate, product: Nephrotrans®) and placebo arm (placebo comparator). Several studies in CKD (chronic kidney disease) patients have shown that alkali therapy slows progression of CKD.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of erythropoietin when used in high dose during acute kidney injury can decrease the number of days of kidney injury.
Multi-center, open-label, single-dose study to assess the PK of a single oral dose of 3 mg CC-122 in subjects with mild, moderate, and severe renal impairment as compared to sex, age (± 15 years), and weight (± 20%) matched control subjects with normal renal function.
This is a Phase 2b, prospective, open-label study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, and PD of FAST PV and mGFR Technology in healthy subjects and patients with varying degrees of renal impairment.
The aim of the study is to assess whether renal impairment could affect fevipiprant pharmacokinetics (PK) to the extent that dosage adjustment is appropriate for this patient population. The study also aims to determine the effect of dialysis on the fevipiprant pharmacokinetic profile as the procedure might remove a significant fraction of the drug.
Supplementation of ketoanalogues of essential amino acids improves the protein quality of protein restricted diets without burdening the kidneys. The ketoanalogues are transaminated by aminotransferases to the corresponding amino acids by incorporating nitrogen from amino groups derived from endogenous amino acid degradation. Therefore, less nitrogen needs to be excreted and the kidney's workload is reduced. The purpose of the trial is to investigate the impact of Ketosteril® supplementation on A) nutritional safety and tolerance of a low protein diet (LPD) (0.6 g protein/kg bodyweight (BW)/day)and B) net protein synthesis in pre-dialysis CKD patients. Changes of urea in serum and urine will be assessed under controlled metabolic balance conditions in non-dialysed CKD patients consuming a LPD supplemented with Ketosteril® at 1 tablet/5 kg body weight/day compared to the same, isonitrogenous and isocaloric diet without Ketosteril®. Changes in protein synthesis and degradation at the defined protein intake with or without Ketosteril® supplementation will be investigated - based on nitrogen balance, normalized protein catabolic rates as well as blood levels of defined proteins as surrogate markers for net protein synthesis and anabolic signaling.
Among patients with diabetes 35% suffer from chronic renal disease and may require dialysis or kidney replacement over time. Furthermore, in diabetics with end stage renal disease (ESRD) that require dialysis, the risk of foot complications and amputation is even more common, expensive, and devastating. Interestingly, even though incidence of foot ulcers in patients with dialysis has been reported to be same as with patients with history of foot ulcers; dialysis patients have significantly higher rate of foot amputation. The goal of this research is to incorporate an innovative virtually supervised non-weight bearing exercise in patients undergoing dialysis to reduce risk of fall and foot ulceration by enhancing lower extremity blood flow, joint perception and joint mobility. Diabetic patients on hemodialysis at Hamad Medical Company will be recruited and will be randomized to either intervention (IG) or control (CG) group and followed for 6 months. The intervention group will take part in a 4-week non-weight bearing exercise program twice per week at the hemodialysis clinic under the supervision of a qualified research staff member. This intervention includes interactive game-based exercises including repetitive ankle and foot movements. Wearable sensors will provide real-time visual/auditory feedback from foot and ankle position and allowed perception of motor-errors during each motor-action. The control group will be instructed to complete a supervised foot and ankle exercise without using sensor technology. Changes in balance, gait, and physical activity, incidence of foot problems will be compared pre- and post-intervention. In addition, the incident of falls, foot ulcers, and limb amputation up to 6 months post intervention will be documented. Investigators hypothesize that patients receiving sensor-based exercises will benefit more compared to group receiving conventional non-technology training in terms of improving functional performance and reducing incidence of foot problems, falls, and limb amputation.
Sofosbuvir is the base of most treatment regimens for hepatitis C. In patients with renal failure the blood level of one of its metabolites (GS-331007) rises up to 20 folds. Although no particular adverse event has been linked to this metabolite sofosbuvir is not recommended for patients with renal failure mainly because of lack of data. Nevertheless there are anecdotal reports and small studies proving the safety of sofosbuvir in renal failure. This study addresses this lack of information by evaluating the safety and efficacy of sofosbuvir and daclatasvir in treating hepatitis C in 100 patients with renal failure.
Several epidemiologic studies reported that patients with renal insufficiency might have increased cardiovascular disease-related mortality rates after Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) . The increased risk in this population may be related to the less use of standard guideline-based treatment and the resulting inability to perform PCI effectively. Recently, with the technology improvement and the progress in clinical trials, Chinese guidelines have made new recommendations about the patients with acute coronary syndrome(ACS) in different states of renal function. However, scant epidemiologic information exists on the prognosis of those patients, especially in Henan. And there is still some uncertainty whether those patients are using the latest guideline recommended treatment. This multicenter, prospective, observational study is aimed to evaluate the long prognosis in patients with acute coronary syndrome complicated with renal insufficiency, and to analysis its related factors that influence the outcomes.
