Filter by:This study seeks to determine if administration of the drug belumosudil (KD025) will be safe and improve transplant tolerance in subjects undergoing combined Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) single haplotype-matched related or 0-3 antigen (at A, B, C, DR) HLA mismatched unrelated living donor kidney and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
This is a three-part study of MK-2060 in participants with chronic and/or end-stage kidney disease. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of a single subcutaneous dose of MK-2060 in stage 4 chronic kidney disease (CKD4) or stage 5 chronic kidney disease (CKD5) participants in Part 1, of multiple subcutaneous doses in CKD4 or CKD5 participants in Part 2, and of a single subcutaneous dose of MK-2060 in participants with end-stage kidney disease in Part 3. The primary hypothesis is that, in Part 1, the true geometric mean of the area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to infinity (AUC0-inf) after a single-dose of MK-2060 in adult CKD4 or CKD5 participants is at least 11300 nM*hr.
This is a parallel arm, pilot study used to examine the feasibility of electronic patient reported outcome measures (ePROMs) for symptom assessment and monitoring as well as a linked self-management support and decision support information hub (https://symptomcare.org) to facilitate symptom management for patients on maintenance hemodialysis. Two dialysis centers will be included in the study, with one center receiving SUPPORT-Dialysis (intervention arm) and the other receiving standard care (control arm).
This is a single-center, prospective, single-arm clinical study to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and performance of VenoStent's SelfWrap® Bioabsorbable Perivascular Wrap on arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs). All participants are chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients already receiving hemodialysis treatments that are referred for creation of a new arteriovenous fistula (AVF).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two different doses of MK-2060 (a monoclonal antibody against Factor XI) in end stage renal disease (ESRD) participants receiving hemodialysis via an arteriovenous graft (AVG). Data from this study will be used to aid dose selection of MK-2060 in future studies. The primary hypothesis is that at least one of the MK-2060 doses is superior to placebo in increasing the time to first occurrence of AVG event.
Many patients on hemodialysis have low levels of magnesium. Magnesium is needed to keep the heart, kidneys, and other organs working properly. Patients with low serum magnesium concentration have a higher risk of death, heart issues, muscle cramps and fractures. There are several reasons why patients on dialysis have low levels of magnesium-these include poor diet, medication interference, and the dialysis procedure itself, which leaches small amounts of magnesium from the blood during each treatment. One way to make sure that patients on dialysis are getting enough magnesium is to increase its concentration in the dialysate. The investigator would like to do a randomized controlled trial to determine the effect of increasing the concentration of magnesium in the dialysate on the risk of people on dialysis dying or being admitted to the hospital due to heart issues. The investigator thinks increasing the magnesium in the dialysate will help patients live longer, have fewer hospitalisations related to heart disease and patients may also experience less cramping associated with dialysis. This simple adjustment to the dialysis procedure can be done at little cost and may even reduce overall healthcare costs. If the investigator can show that increasing magnesium in the dialysate improves patients' health, then it could become the standard of care for all patients on dialysis.
Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) has been the main method of treatment for Thai End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients under the "PD First" policy of the Universal Coverage (UC) scheme. The increased demand has resulted in not only supply chain logistical problems, but also product quality concerns. Peritonitis, the main complication and checklist cause of failure in Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD) patients, could be caused by a product defect. This cluster randomized trial will be conducted in 22 randomly selected PD centers in Thailand to assess if a checklist intervention could reduce peritonitis rate and increase the number of checklist product defect report.
