Effects of Exogenous Ketosis on Renal Function, Renal Perfusion, & Sodium

Status Not yet recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded crossover design. Nineteen patients with essential hypertension will be randomized to receive either ketone bodies (KE4) or placebo delivered by KetoneAid. After a period of 5-days treatment, effect variables will be measured (experiment day 1). After a washout period of 14 days, the subjects are crossed over to a similar treatment period with the other treatment. The study is terminated by measuring effect variables after the second treatment period (experiment day 2).

Clinical Trial Description

Background: Renewed interest in ketone bodies has emerged, partly driven by the recent success of selective sodium glucose co transporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibition in preventing cardiovascular deaths in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Effects of ketosis are of importance in order to understand the beneficial effects of SGLT-2 inhibitors and to account for the full therapeutic potential of this treatment. Hypothesis: Ketosis decreases 24 hour systolic blood pressure and increases renal blood flow and glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Methods: It is a randomized, placebo-controlled double-blinded cross over study. Nineteen patients with essential hypertension will be randomized to receive either ketone bodies (KE4) or for 5 days. After a wash out period of at least 14 days, the subjects are crossed over to receive the other treatment. After each treatment period effect variables will be measured including Technetium(Tc)99m - Diethylenetriamine pentaacetate (DTPA) clearance and water based positron emission tomography computed tomography (PET/CT) Perspectives: The study has the potential to provide information regarding the therapeutic potential of treatment with ketone bodies and understanding of conditions characterized by ketosis, such as SGLT2-inhibitor treatment. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
