Effect of Short Term Aliskiren Treatment in Kidney Transplant Patients

Kidney Failure, Chronic Clinical Trial

Official title:
P-MR Spectroscopy Evaluation of the Effect of Short-Term Treatment With Aliskiren on Kidney β-ATP/Pi Level in Kidney Transplant Patients

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of a short-term aliskiren treatment on kidney metabolism in patients at high risk for developing kidney dysfunction (i.e. kidney transplanted patients). The study is aimed at evaluating if any effect on kidney metabolism [using proton MR Spectroscopy(1H-MRS)] can be detected following a 6 months treatment with aliskiren regardless of its anti-hypertensive role. 1H-MRS can record a larger number of chemical species (up to 40) in the kidney, and monitor changes according to the pathologic state and health of the transplanted kidney.
