AKI Biomarkers in Coronavirus(COVID)-19

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

This research aims to investigate the role of daily measurement of urinary cell cycle arrest markers and other serum and urinary biomarkers to predict the development of acute kidney injury in critically ill patients with COVID-19 and acute respiratory disease.

Clinical Trial Description

COVID-19 is a rapidly evolving pandemic with approximately 5% of all patients requiring admission to an intensive care unit. In critically ill patients with COVID-19, acute respiratory disease and acute kidney injury (AKI) are very common. Patients with AKI have an increased risk of mortality, especially renal replacement therapy (RRT) is required. The latest Intensive Care National Audit & Research Centre (ICNARC) report shows a 77% ICU mortality in patients with COVID-19 who require mechanical ventilation and RRT. COVID-19 associated AKI is still poorly understood. The exact underlying pathophysiology remains unknown. Furthermore, there are no specific strategies to prevent or treat AKI. Management is supportive consisting of fluid and haemodynamic optimization, discontinuation of nephrotoxic drugs and prevention of nephrotoxic exposures. Ideally, AKI needs to be recognized as early as possible for these supportive measures to be effective. Early prediction of AKI may be valuable to optimize management and improve outcomes. In critically ill patients without COVID-19, the two cell-cycle arrest markers, tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2 (TIMP-2) and insulin-like growth-factor binding protein 7 (IGFBP7), have been shown to predict the development of AKI. Whether these new biomarkers also predict the development of AKI in critically ill patients with COVID-19 is unknown. The aim of this project is to explore whether urinary cell cycle arrest markers and other renal biomarkers have a role in predicting AKI in critically ill patients with COVID-19 and acute respiratory disease. The results will advance the understanding of this disease and serve to develop strategies for individualized management of this high-risk group. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
