Filter by:This study is conducted in Europe. The aim of this study is to compare the easiness of use of Norditropin NordiFlex® device to the device previously used by patients or parents.
The trial is a multicenter, prospective, randomized, open study. A total of 500 elderly patients aged over 75 years with renal insufficiency stage 5 will be included in the study after signed informed consent. Patients will be randomized 1/1 in two arms : 250 patients in the "exclusive nephrology follow-up" arm will continue their usual follow-up; 250 patients in the "geriatric follow-up" arm will have both their usual nephrology follow-up and a geriatric follow-up. The aim of the study is to determine if a systematized gerontologist evaluation delay the occurrence of a composite primary endpoint : death, dementia, depression and severe dependency. The hypothesis is that the functional and vital prognosis of a patient with renal insufficiency depends not only on common and classical factors but also on cognitive and psychological functions and dependence, particularly in elderly patients.
A randomized clinical trial to determine if vitamin D repletion in CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease) patients with low vitamin D levels will decrease proteinuria, a marker of kidney damage.
The goal of this study is to evaluate the effect of N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC) administration in organ donors on the kidney graft function of recipients.
Purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of treatment with vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) compared with placebo in a trial including chronic kidney disease patients with vitamin D deficiency.
This observational study is conducted globally. The aim of the study is to investigate the effectiveness and safety of real-life treatment with Norditropin®. The study population will consist of children and adults who are on treatment with Norditropin® in accordance with normal clinical practice.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is defined as kidney damage for greater than 3 months or a glomerular filtration rate less than 60 mL/min per 1.73m2 for greater than 3 months. Patients with CKD are at high risk for development of cardiovascular disease and metabolic complications. Guidelines for the care of patients with CKD have been developed by the National Kidney Foundation. Despite the wide availability of these guidelines, adherence is low. The goal of the current study is to evaluate whether a multifactorial intervention, including a CKD registry, will improve CKD guideline adherence. The hypothesis is that providers exposed to a multifactorial clinical intervention including education, academic detailing, and a CKD registry will be more likely to adhere to CKD guidelines than those only exposed to education.
A prospective, non-randomized two stage monocentric phase II clinical trial to evaluate a de-novo calcineurin-inhibitor (CNI)-free immunosuppressive regimen based on induction therapy with anti-CD25 monoclonal anti-body (basiliximab), mycophenolic acid (MPA), and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) - inhibition with everolimus to determine its safety and to investigate the preliminary efficacy in patients with impaired renal function at the time-point of liver transplantation (OLT) with regards to the incidence of steroid resistant acute rejection within the first 30 days after liver transplantation.
This study will investigate how the levels of a single dose of CTAP101 changes in the body over time (pharmacokinetics, PK) and how CTAP101 affects other mineral and hormonal balances (pharmacodynamics, PD) in patients with Stage 3 or 4 chronic kidney disease (CKD) with vitamin D insufficiency and secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT).
This is an open-label, single-arm, baseline-controlled, multicenter efficacy and safety switch study involving 500 CKD subjects suffering from anemia and treated previously with a stable dose of ESA s.c. Correction of anemia will be maintained by s.c. administration of HX575 in two frequencies (i.e. qw and q2w), in order to maintain an Hb target range of 10.0-12.0 g/dL.
