Obesity Clinical Trial - PErirenal Adipose Tissue & RenaL Hemodynamics in

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Rationale: Perirenal adipose tissue (PRAT) thickness has been associated to worsening renal function and hypertension. The role of PRAT in heart failure with a preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) has never been established. The hypothesis of this study is that in patients with HFpEF the diameter of PRAT is increased compared with age, sex and BMI matched controls. Objective: The main objective is to determine whether PRAT thickness is increased in patients with HFpEF. Secondary objectives are to determine whether PRAT thickness is correlated to whole kidney perfusion, renal venous flow patterns, markers of glomerular and tubular damage and dysfunction, NT pro-BNP, renin and aldosterone. Lastly, this study aims to determine whether these correlations are similar for men and women with HFpEF. Study design: the proposed study is a single center, cross-sectional observational case-control study, including 30 HFpEF patients and 30 healthy controls. Study population: Adult patients with HFpEF with a body mass index (BMI) of <25.0 or >30.0 and healthy age, sex and BMI-matched controls. Intervention (if applicable): Not applicable. Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary endpoint will be the difference in diameter and volume of perirenal adipose tissue measured on dynamic contrast computed CT (DCE-CT) in patients with HFpEF vs. healthy age, sex and BMI matched controls. Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: Participating subjects will be asked to visit the University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG) twice (once for screening, once for testing visit). During the testing visit they will undergo intravenous contrast abdominal CT, renal sonography, blood drawing and urine collection. Risks associated with these procedure are very limited, rare and include bleeding and infection for venapunction, and contact dermatitis for ultrasound gel. Adverse events for CT include hypersensitivity reactions to contrast agent, which include skin rash, hypotension and bronchospasm.

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.
