Filter by:The DERENEDIAB study is a proof-of-concept, multi-center, prospective, open, randomized, controlled study of the effectiveness of renal denervation in addition to standardized medical treatment compared to medical treatment alone in diabetic subjects with diabetic nephropathy and resistant proteinuria. Bilateral renal denervation will be performed using the Symplicity Catheter - a percutaneous system that delivers radiofrequency (RF) energy through the luminal surface of the renal artery.
The measurement of 24-hour proteinuria allows an assessment of treatment response in patients with multiple myeloma. But it is difficult and restrictive to make. This study was therefore designed to investigate the correlation between the ratio of proteinuria / creatinine on samples, easier to obtain, and the 24-hour proteinuria in assessing response to this treatment .
The main purpose of the study is to compare the effects of three different types of RAAS blockade on 24 hours proteinuria in patients with non-diabetic chronic kidney disease.
This study focuses on the genetics and metabolism of Donnai-Barrow Syndrome (DBS).
The study 'Safety and Efficacy of Paricalcitol for Reduction of Proteinuria in Kidney Transplant Recipients' is designed to assess the effects of paricalcitol in kidney transplant recipients with proteinuria. It is a single centre, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trial that tests the hypothesis that 24 weeks' treatment with paricalcitol compared to placebo will result in a decrease in urinary protein excretion in recipients of a kidney transplant at least three months after transplantation. Additionally, the effects of paricalcitol on albuminuria, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and blood pressure will be investigated.
The purpose of the project is to study the relationship between post-bariatric surgery changes in weight and renal parameters.
The purpose of this study is to provide nephrologists with additional clinical evidence regarding the efficacy and safety of Acthar in subjects with treatment-resistant idiopathic membranous nephropathy. Approximately sixty (60) subjects will be randomized in this double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled, multicenter study comparing Acthar and Placebo administered 2 times per week for a 24-week treatment period followed by a 24-week observation period. The primary objective of this study is to assess the proportion of treatment-resistant subjects (defined as subjects who either have had no response or have suffered a relapse after achieving a partial response to their most recent standard treatment regimen) who have a complete or partial remission of proteinuria in nephrotic syndrome due to idiopathic membranous nephropathy after 24 weeks of treatment.
The study is done to find out whether the combined use of the nutritional supplements N-acetylcysteine and Siliphos (milk thistle extract) corrects the shedding of urine protein and oxidative damage (damage to cells and organs often compared to fast aging) in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) and diabetic kidney disease.
The utilization of external cardiohemodynamic patient assessment, applying non-invasive stick-on contact patches to the mother's neck on either side and chest wall on either side, enables the practitioner to have information about the patient's cardiac function and vascular status beyond simply blood pressure and pulse. This information, once collected, should open the practitioner's eyes to better assess the patient's disease status and her response to therapy. We will use this information to compare the effectiveness of the two standard medications used for treatment of maternal high blood pressure.
Immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy is the most common type of primary glomerulonephritis in the world. The treatment of IgA nephropathy with normal renal function and minimal proteinuria is unknown. Since angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors reduce proteinuria and retard the rate of decline of renal function in chronic proteinuric nephropathies, including IgA nephropathy. The investigators conduct a randomized control study to evaluate the efficacy of ACE inhibitor in the treatment of early IgA nephropathy. Sixty patients with biopsy-proven IgA nephropathy and minimal proteinuria are recruited. They will be randomized to ramipril for 5 years or no treatment. Blood pressure, proteinuria and renal function will be monitored. This study will explore the effects of ACE inhibitor in the treatment of early IgA nephropathy, which is a major cause of dialysis-dependent renal failure.
