Chronic Kidney Disease Associated Pruritus (CKD-aP) represents a localized or a generalized skin itch, which is a common symptom occurring in end-stage renal disease and dialysis. The prevalence of CKD-aP in adults on dialysis varies between countries ranging between 20-42%. Swiss data on CKD-aP are unfortunately largely lacking, as Switzerland is so far not part of large registries, such as DOPPS. The aging population, the increase in diabetes (69% by 2030), the increase in hypertension (60% by 2025) and poly-morbidity will probably lead to a rise in the number of patients on dialysis and subsequent CKD-aP. CKD-aP is associated with sleep disturbances, compromised quality of life, emotional distress, and increased risks of hospitalization and death. Its management lacks approaches that are supported by strong evidence because its pathogenesis remains poorly understood and may be related to an increase in uremic toxins, skin inflammation. In this context, sweat composition deserves more attention. Aim of the study The aim of the study is to determine the prevalence of CKD-aP in the population on dialysis, the association between CKD-aP and different electrolytes, and the potential role of the composition of sweat in CKD-aP. Results will be used for building a CKD-aP symptom management program to improve the quality of care of patients on dialysis and will be incorporated in the nursing continuing education program.
This is a phase 1, open-label, single-dose study in adults with moderate hepatic impairment (defined as Child-Pugh B cirrhosis) and matched healthy control participants with normal hepatic function. All participants in both cohorts (moderate hepatic impairment and matched healthy controls) will receive a single dose of the study drug, linerixibat. The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety of linerixibat.
This is a two-part, multicenter, randomized, double-blind study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral difelikefalin as adjunct therapy to a topical corticosteroid (TCS) for moderate-to-severe pruritus in adult subjects with atopic dermatitis (AD).
This is a prospective, double-blind, randomised, sham-controlled study whose primary aim is to test whether LLLT changes the intensity of itch after histamine application in healthy volunteers compared to sham application.
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of aromatherapy massage on itching, comfort, skin pH level and skin moisture in individuals with liver disease. Research Hypotheses: H1: Aromatherapy massage has an effect on the level of itching in individuals with itchy liver disease. H2: Aromatherapy massage has an effect on the general comfort level in individuals with itchy liver disease, H3: Aromatherapy massage has an effect on skin pH level in individuals with itchy liver disease. H4: Aromatherapy massage has an effect on skin moisture in individuals with itchy liver disease.
This is a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of oral difelikefalin administered as a 1 mg tablet once daily compared to placebo in reducing the intensity of itch in advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients with moderate-to-severe pruritus. This study is comprised of an Efficacy Assessment Phase and a Long-term Extension Phase. The Efficacy Assessment Phase includes a double-blind 12-week Treatment Period (Treatment Period 1), and the Long-term Extension Phase includes a double-blind Treatment Period (Treatment Period 2) of up to 52 weeks.

This study aims to assess the effect of sertraline on uremic pruritis in patients undergoing regular haemodialysis.
