Tenofovir alafenamide (TAF), a novel prodrug of tenofovir (TFV), has been approved for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. TAF has been shown to be a potent inhibitor of HBV replication at a low dose, with high intracellular concentration and more than 90% lower systemic TFV concentration than tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF). TAF has been approved in the clinical practice guidelines in the west. Since its availability in Asia in 2017, there have been evolving data concerning its positive impact on renal safety as shown in registration trials. The primary objective of this study is to compare the risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression in chronic hepatitis B patients on TAF versus ETV in a territory-wide cohort in Hong Kong.
This is a single-center, prospective, single-arm clinical study to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and performance of VenoStent's SelfWrap® Bioabsorbable Perivascular Wrap on arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs). All participants are chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients already receiving hemodialysis treatments that are referred for creation of a new arteriovenous fistula (AVF).
This study is conducted to see how the ziltivekimab works in the body of Chinese people with chronic kidney disease and systemic inflammation. Participants will either get ziltivekimab (active medicine) or placebo (a dummy medicine which has no effect on the body. Participants' chance of getting ziltivekimab or placebo is the same. Participants will get their study medicine in a pre-filled syringe. The study doctor or staff will do 3 injections of study medicine during clinical visits. The study is expected to last for about 6 months. Participants will have blood and urine samples taken at all of the clinic visits. Participants will have their heart examined using electrodes (electrocardiogram). Women cannot take part if pregnant, breast-feeding or planning to get pregnant during the study period.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of intravenously delivered mesenchymal steml cells (MSC) in one of two fixed dosing regimens at two time points in patients with chronic kidney disease.
Anemia is associated with cardiovascular disease. Iron deficiency is usually induced in chronic kidney disease (CKD). In clinical studies, an inverse association between serum levels of iron and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), a cardiovascular risk factor, has been demonstrated. In addition, a number of the I.V. iron presentations mostly used to treat anemia show unwanted side effects related to phosphate alterations and increased FGF23. Objectives. The General Objective of this project is to evaluate, through in vivo and in vitro studies, the cardiovascular alterations related to the anemia-induced increase in FGF23 production; as well as the identification of possible molecular targets that may be useful in its prevention and/or palliation. Specific Objectives are: 1) To determine in a population with anemia (due to iron deficiency), with and without CKD, an association between the parameters related to iron metabolism, FGF23 and markers of cardiovascular damage. 2) To evaluate in vivo, in a murine experimental model of anemia, with and without CKD, the effects of the modulation (inhibition) of triggers of iron deficiency (hepcidin) and of the increase in FGF23 (HF1α), on markers of cardiovascular damage. 3) To compare in vivo, in an experimental model of anemia with and without CKD, the effect of different I.V. iron presentations (ferrous sulphate, ferric carboxymaltose and ferric citrate) on FGF23 levels and their cardiovascular impact. 4) To evaluate in vitro, in cardiomyocytes cultures, in the presence of iron deficiency, the direct effect of FGF23 on the induction of cardiac damage. 5) To evaluate in vitro, in osteoblasts cultures, the direct effect of ferrous sulphate, ferric carboxymaltose, ferric citrate and hepcidin. Methodology. The levels of intact and C-terminal FGF23 (FGF23i and FGF23c), the differential expression profile of plasma miRNAS and of proteomic, markers of cardiovascular disease, mineral metabolism, inflammation and oxidative stress and intracellular signalling pathways will be evaluated.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of plant-protein diets for 12 weeks in patients with advanced chronic kidney disease.
