Filter by:1. Study the prevalence of sexual dysfunction in male patients on hemodialysis aged 18-60 years (sexually active male) . 2. Study the effect of hemodialysis on the male patients sexual functions by measurement of serum prolactin and free testosterone levels.
This study is being conducted to directly characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of plazomicin following administration of a single oral dose before and after IHD in subjects with ESRD. This PK assessment will be used to provide appropriate plazomicin dosing recommendations for patients with ESRD receiving IHD.
For patients with End Stage Renal Failure (ESRF), the surgical creation of an Autogenous Arteriovenous Fistula (AVF) or Autogenous Arteriovenous Graft (AVG) is the recognised standard for providing vascular access. A functioning dialysis vascular access is essential to facilitate hemodialysis (HD) treatment. Advantages include improved hemodialysis initiation time, improved dialysis quality, better maintenance of accesses and generally, better outcomes in patients. Unfortunately almost 50% of AVF and AVG fail after a median lifetime of 3 to 7 years and 12 to 18 months respectively. Vascular access dysfunction is a major cause of morbidity and hospitalisation for ESRF patients, costing the healthcare system USD 18 million globally. Venous stenosis and scarring are caused by trauma from surgical access creation when the circuit comes arterialized and from repeated percutaneous punctures from subsequent hemodialysis. This study is performed to evaluate Sirolimus-coated balloon efficacy and safety using MagicTouch™ Drug coated balloon catheter (Concept Medical Inc, Tampa, FL, US) on AVF patency with de novo and recurrent stenosis.
This is a Phase I/II double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study assessing safety and limited efficacy of intraoperative C1INH (500U/kidney) vs. Placebo administered into the graft renal artery 1-2 hours prior to implantation in adult subjects receiving a deceased donor kidney allograft considered high-risk for development of DGF (KDPI>80). Once eligible patients are identified, consented, and have an acceptable kidney transplant offer, they will be randomized by the Cedars-Sinai Research Pharmacy to receive study drug vs. placebo. Drug and placebo will be prepared by the Cedars-Sinai Research Pharmacy and conveyed to the operating room in a blinded manner. The drug will be administered by the transplant surgeon in the OR in a blinded manner.
The investigators would like to introduce and clinically evaluate prolonged normothermic machine perfusion (PNMP) to preserve and assess high-risk donor kidneys prior to transplantation.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the delivery of Triferic AVNU intravenously using the Freedom Pump-20 during hemodialysis into the pre-dialyzer and post-dialyzer blood lines.
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the feasibility of a 2 week course of glecaprevir/pibrentasvir (Mavyret) starting immediately prior to transplantation to treat hepatitis C virus (HCV) in kidney transplant recipients who receive a kidney from a donor with HCV.
The CSP-2002 study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the InnAVasc arteriovenous graft (AVG) when implanted in and used for hemodialysis in participants suffering from end-stage renal failure (ESRD). The InnAVasc AVG is implanted and used similar to other standard-of-care dialysis grafts currently on the market. However, the InnAVasc AVG has been uniquely designed to potentially allow for immediate needle access (same day as implant surgery as opposed to 2-4 weeks of waiting), to potentially reduce excessive bleeding from the graft after dialysis, and it may provide protection from improper or missed needle cannulation attempts.
Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) suffer from high morbidity and mortality of cardiovascular and infectious disease and increased risk of all-cause mortality which is mainly attributed to the disturbed immune response. More and more evident indicated that T cell dysfunction was universal in ESRD. However, few studies clarified the association of T cell dysfunction and clinical outcomes. This study is aim to explore valuable markers of T cell dysfunction predicting bad clinical outcomes including death, cardiovascular disease, infection and tumor. Hopefully, these finding will provide foundation for further mechanism research and better therapeutic options for ESRD patients in the future.
We propose to set up a prospective randomized controlled trial to control the security and assess the efficacy of adjuvant treatment by rheopheresis in necrotizing-ulcered calciphylaxis in the hemodialysis population.
