The purpose of this research study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of 2 different doses of a study drug called ziltivekimab to placebo (an inactive substance) in reducing inflammation and improving some of the bad effects of inflammation on heart disease. Participants will be randomly (by chance) assigned to receive either ziltivekimab or placebo. The chance that participants will be assigned into one of the three study arms of ziltivekimab (either 15 mg or 30 mg) or placebo is the same (approximately 33%). This is a double-blind study, which means neither participants nor the study doctor will know which group the participants are in. In case of an emergency, however, the study doctor can get this information. The study drug will be injected under the skin once every 4 weeks. In this study participants will receive 3 injections of study drug. The total study duration for each participant will be approximately 6 months.
Individuals with kidney failure receiving maintenance hemodialysis (HD) have high mortality rates, driven largely by cardiovascular causes. Volume-related factors are critical, modifiable contributors to cardiovascular complications. Reversing volume overload has been shown to improve blood pressure and cardiac remodeling. Use of loop diuretics may represent a pragmatic, low-cost, and low-burden strategy to improve outcomes in people receiving HD. Lack of data on optimal furosemide dosing, safety, and acceptability are barriers to expanded use. This study investigates whether oral furosemide is safe and effective at increasing urine volume in HD patients.
This is a pilot, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, 12-month trial of 50 patients with CKD stage 3b-4 with metabolic acidosis to examine the effect of sodium bicarbonate therapy on cognitive and cerebrovascular function.
Chocolate is a widely appreciated foodstuff with historical appreciation as food from the gods. It is a rich source of (poly)phenolics, which have several proposed salutogenic effects, including neuroprotective anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and cardioprotective properties. This study will evaluate the potential salutogenic contribution of chocolate intake, to mitigate inflammatory and oxidative burden in chronic kidney disease patients.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AZD9977 in combination with dapagliflozin compared with dapagliflozin alone and to assess the dose-response relationship, dapagliflozin alone and 3 doses of AZD9977 combined with dapagliflozin on urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR). The study will be conducted in participants with heart failure (HF) with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF [below 60%]) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR [between ≥ 20 and ≤ 60 mL/min/1.73 m^2, with at least 20% of participants with eGFR ≥ 20 to <30 mL/min/1.73^2 and a maximum of 35% of participants with eGFR ≥ 45 mL/min/1.73 m^2]).
The current study will investigate whether long term implementation of expanded hemodialysis (HDx) will effectively decrease serum levels of large uremic toxins and ameliorate progression of sarcopenia in patients with chronic kidney disease requiring hemodialysis.
This non-interventional, Phase IV, exploratory, cross-over, randomised, single-blind, active comparator-controlled study has been designed to measure the palatability and preference of Lokelma® versus Veltassa® versus S/CPS in patients with dialysis and non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hyperkalaemia (HK). The sponsor hypothesizes that palatability, in terms of taste, texture, smell, and mouthfeel, will score higher (better) for Lokelma when compared with Veltassa and S/CPS.
This study is a single centre, randomised, open-label, single-dose, 5-period, 5-treatment, crossover study in healthy male and female subjects. This study is intended to assess the relative bioavailability between the fixed dose combination (FDC, i.e. verinurad/allopurinol FDC capsule 12/300 mg) and free combination formulations of verinurad (i.e. verinurad prolonged release Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose [HPMC] capsule 12 mg) and allopurinol (i.e. allopurinol table 300 mg) in fasted and fed conditions. The study will also assess the relative bioavailability between a formulation only containing verinurad (i.e. verinurad prolonged release gelatin capsule 12 mg) and the FDC capsule.
This is a randomized, open-label study to evaluate different methods of initiating tenapanor therapy in CKD patients on dialysis with hyperphosphatemia, when they are either phosphate binder naïve or on phosphate binder therapy. The objective to evaluate the effect of tenapanor alone or in combination with phosphate binders to achieve target serum phosphorus (s-P) levels of ≤5.5 mg/dL when tenapanor is administered as the core therapy (alone or in combination with phosphate binders) for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on dialysis.
