Filter by:This study is designed to investigate the effect of renal impairment on the safety and pharmacokinetics of SK3530 in subjects with renal impairment compared to healthy subjects.
This study is designed to assess the effect of renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of udenafil in subjects with renal impairment compared to healthy subjects.
Patients with reduced renal function normally develop hyperparathyroidism, which in turn is associated with increased cardiovascular risk and de-calcification. Hyperparathyroidism may be enhanced by an increased level of FGF23 which is often seen in the early stage of renal failure. This pilot study will investigate the FGF23-lowering effect of early initiation of treatment with a phosphate binder versus active vitamin D in an open crossover design.
The mortality of acute renal failure (ARF) remains to be high (around 60-70%) despite manifold improvements in ICU care. At present, it is not clear if the method chosen for renal replacement therapy, i.e. intermittent haemodialysis (IHD) or continuous haemofiltration (CVVH), might impact on the outcome of these patients. For this purpose, a prospective randomised clinical study of the effect of continuous versus intermittent renal replacement therapy on the mortality and outcome of acute renal failure will be performed.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate in Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) patients not on dialysis and who have an Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) serum levels elevated, the effect of non calcic phosphate binder: sevelamer carbonate. This treatment could lead to a diminution of FGF23 serum levels due to the diminution of intestinal absorption of dietary phosphate. In addition, the investigators will describe the impact of the FGF23 level monitoring on the main phosphocalcium metabolism markers as phosphatemia, intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), serum calcitriol and phosphaturia.
The study investigates whether a caloric restricted dietary regime can prevent onset and/or progression of chronic kidney disease in type 2 diabetic patients with abdominal obesity, through the amelioration of concomitant metabolic abnormalities such as insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, hypertension and inflammation, possible risk factors for the onset of kidney disease. The main aim of the study is therefore to evaluate the renoprotective effect of caloric restriction (CR) on subjects at risk of nephropathy. Secondary aim is to better understand how dietary implementation can modulate renal disease and its associated metabolic abnormalities.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the anabolic potentials of insulin may be used to reverse the catabolic effects of hemodialysis in non-diabetic patients with end-stage renal failure.
MYRE is a phase III multicentric controlled national clinical trial conducted in patients with multiple myeloma and renal failure related to myeloma cast nephropathy (MCN). Its aims are to assess (1) the efficacy of bortezomib plus dexamethasone (BD), compared with cyclophosphamide, plus bortezomib and dexamethasone (C-BD) in patients with inaugural MCN not requiring hemodialysis; and (2) in patients with inaugural severe renal failure secondary to biopsy-proven MCN and requiring hemodialysis that of an intensive hemodialysis regimen using either a dialyser with very high permeability to proteins (TheraliteTM) or a conventional high-flux dialyser, while receiving chemotherapy with BD.
In this comparative open-label cohort study, the investigators compared the efficacy and safety of tacrolimus (TAC)and cyclophosphamide (CYC) in the treatment of diffuse proliferative and membranous lupus nephritis with severe renal disease. Treatment of lupus nephritis (LN) with cyclophosphamide is effective, but retain a certain proportion of renal function exacerbations. Tacrolimus may be a suitable substitute treatment for CYC. Methods: Forty patients with diffuse proliferative or membranous were recruited for this trial, 45% of them had lower Ccr (<60mL/min/1.73m2), 10% had increased serum creatinine (>180µmol/L) and 67.5% had nephritic proteinuria (>3.5g/day). The investigators compared the efficacy and adverse effects of TAC (0.04-0.08 mg/kg/d) and prednisone for 12 months (TAC group) with pulse cyclophosphamide (750mg/m2 per month for six months) and prednisone followed by azathioprine (50mg/day）for 6 months (CYC group).
This study is designed to assess the safety, efficacy and dialytic capabilities of hemodiafiltration with on-line prepared substitution fluid using the AK200 ULTRA in comparison to conventional hemodialysis.
