Filter by:Randomized placebo-controlled double-blind cross-over N=1 trial in adult male and female patients with UACR >20 mg/g (2.26 mg/mmol) with type 2 diabetes treated in primary or secondary healthcare. The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the individual response to the SGLT2 inhibitor dapagliflozin in urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR). Secondary objectives are to determine the individual response to dapagliflozin in systolic blood pressure, body weight, eGFR, and fasting plasma glucose. Participants will collect all study data in the comfort of their own environments: - First-morning void urine samples - Capillary blood samples - Blood pressure - Body weight Participants will be randomly assigned to a cross-over study consisting of two periods of 1-week treatment with dapagliflozin 10 mg/day and two periods of 1-week treatment with placebo in random order with a 1-week wash-out period between every treatment period to avoid cross-over effects.
The association between Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) and Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is well established. Traditional risk factors for CVD and CKD are similar, with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) being the most prevalent risk factor. However, CKD is underdiagnosed and undertreated in patients with CVD. Further understanding of the combination of CKD in CVD patients is important to formulate prevention and treatment strategies for CVD patients and high-risk groups, reduce adverse events in CVD patients, and prevent progression of CKD to End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD).
This is a 2-part study evaluating the efficacy and safety of lorundrostat (an aldosterone synthase inhibitor [ASI]) for the treatment of hypertension in subjects with CKD and albuminuria while receiving stable treatment with an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi) or an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) either in combination with dapagliflozin, or alone.
Background: Sodium-glucose-cotransporter (SGLT) inhibition has been observed to reduce risk of cardiovascular events and kidney failure in persons with type 2 diabetes. People with type 1 diabetes also have increased risk of cardiovascular and kidney disease, and may benefit from SGLT-inhibition. The exact mechanism of how SGLT-inhibition benefits the kidneys are yet unknown. Change in renal hypoxia may be a factor. Objective: The primary aim of this study is to assess the effects of 12 weeks SGLT-1 and 2 inhibition on renal oxygenation in persons with type 1 diabetes and chronic kidney disease. Further aims are to study if renal oxygen consumption and response to SGLT-inhibition differs between people of African-Caribbean or Northern European decent. Additionally effects on left ventricular ejection fraction, kidney function and biomarkers in blood and urine will be explored. Method: 12 weeks treatment with oral sotagliflozin or matching placebo as intervention. Kidney oxygenation and perfusion parameters and left ventricular ejection fraction will be assessed by functional magnetic resonance imaging. Kidney function and biomarkers will be assessed according to local hospital laboratory guidelines. Design: Randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, cross over intervention study. Study population: 69 persons with type 1 diabetes and diabetic kidney disease with albuminuria will be included, 39 at Steno Diabetes Center Copenhagen, 30 at King's College London. Endpoints: Primary end-point: Change from 0 to 12 weeks in dynamic R2*-weighted signal after treatment with sotagliflozin compared to placebo. Secondary endpoints: Change from 0 to 12 weeks with sotagliflozin compared with placebo on renal perfusion, renal artery flow, renal oxygen consumption, renal parenchymal triglyceride fraction, renal fibrosis, left ventricular ejection fraction, urinary albumin-creatinin ratio, ketone bodies, erythropoietin, pro brain natriuretic peptide, and plasma- and urine inflammation- and fibrosis biomarkers as well as difference after 12 weeks treatment in glomerular filtration rate. Timeframe: Inclusion of patients from february 2024. Last visit september 2025. Presentation spring 2026, publication fall 2026.
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the feasibility of remote clinical trial conduct in patients with type 2 diabetes and elevated albuminuria. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What is the feasibility (and advantages) of remote clinical trial conduct with multiple medications in patients with type 2 diabetes and elevated albuminuria? - What is the individual response to the SGLT2 inhibitor empagliflozin in urine albumin-creatinine ratio? - What is the individual response to the SGLT2 inhibitor empagliflozin in systolic blood pressure, body weight, eGFR, and fasting plasma glucose? - Can suboptimal treatment responses to empagliflozin be overcome by the addition or substitution with finerenone? Participants will collect all study data in the comfort of their own environments - First-morning void urine samples - Capillary blood samples - Blood pressure - Body weight Participants will be assigned to a 3-week treatment period with empagliflozin 10 mg/day. Based on the albuminuria response after 2 weeks, participants will be allocated to one of three treatment regimens after the 3-week treatment period with empagliflozin: - Continue empagliflozin for 4 more weeks (good response). - Continue empagliflozin for 4 more weeks and add finerenone 10 or 20 mg will be added for 4 weeks (moderate response). - Stop empagliflozin and start finerenone 10 or 20 mg for 4 weeks (no response)
The purpose of this trial is to investigate the feasibility and safety of implementing a protocol-based treatment aggressively targeting albuminuria in subjects with biopsy-proven diabetic nephropathy and severely elevated albuminuria. If this approach is feasible, the results of the trial will inform the design of a large-scale randomized clinical trial to evaluate the effect of this treatment on hard kidney endpoints (initiation of dialysis, kidney transplantation, and death from kidney failure) in subjects with biopsy-proven diabetic nephropathy and severely elevated albuminuria.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The prevalence of CKD is increasing worldwide and is assumed to also dramatically increase in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Key shortcomings of available data on CKD in SSA are as follows: (i) Available data are based on single measurements and, therefore, cannot distinguish between harmless transient deterioration in kidney function and chronic kidney damage; (ii) Accurate information regarding renal protein loss, an important and early marker of kidney disease, is lacking; (iii) Cardiovascular risk factors for CKD, such as obesity, hypertension and diabetes, are often not searched for. Likewise non-classic potential risk factors, such as endemic infectious diseases, socioeconomic status and lifestyle have not been consistently recorded; (iv) Information to interrogate linked interaction over time between risk factors and development of CKD is unavailable. With this project, situated in a region representative of semi-rural SSA, we aim to fill this knowledge gap and (i) establish guideline conform prevalence data of CKD and its major cardiovascular risk factors, as well as (ii) prospectively define the incidence of cardiovascular- and non-classic risk factors of CKD. The data from (i) and (ii) is used to develop predictive models. A prospective cohort of 1200 individuals in a primary care facility will serve as study population. The population is representing a society in transition from rural to more urban lifestyle. In the pilot study, participants will be followed for one years and undergo the clinical and biomedical testing required to capture CKD and its classic and non-classic risk factors over time.
The purpose of this study was to collect additional performance and clinical data on the Minuteful - Kidney test device (previously "ACR | U.S. Urine Analysis Test System"), following the original data collection (NCT04626271). This method comparison and usability study was designed to evaluate the agreement levels of the Minuteful - Kidney Test with the comparator device (URiSCAN Optima) as well as the device's usability including the lay user's ability to understand and implement the device instructions. It also evaluates the ease of use of the device under actual use conditions in a simulated home environment.
