Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a common disease affecting 10-12% of the adult population and characterize with high-risk cardiovascular morbidity and mortality with progression of CKD. Treatment with sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (iSGLT2) not only improves hyperglycemia and type 2 diabetes (T2D) but also results in body-weight loss, a reduction in blood pressure, and a decrease of cardiovascular events and progression of renal failure in both diabetes and non-diabetes patients.(Heerspink et al. 2020) Therefore, dapagliflozin is now associated with the inhibitors of the renin-angiotensin system to reduce kidney events. However, the mechanisms underlying the effects of dapagliflozin on the renal function remain unclear. When renal failure occurs, it impairs the removal of several metabolites called uremic retention solutes. If these retention solutes exhibit deleterious interferences with biochemical/physiological functions, they are referred to as uremic toxins as they can contribute to the manifestations of the uremic syndrome and are associated with a high cardiovascular morbidity and mortality and with progression of CKD. Many of the uremic toxins are not produced by the body itself but rather derived from gut microbiota metabolism such as the well-known trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO),p-cresyl sulfate (PCS), phenyl sulfate (PS), indoxyl sulfate (IS), and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA).The gut microbiota composition in a uremic context has been the subject of an increasing number of publications and majority of them confirm a decrease of gut microbiota richness and deep modifications.Recently, an animal study suggested that dapagliflozin, subtly improve the composition of the gut microbiota in mice with T2D and another preliminary clinical study didn't observe a modification in the fecal microbiome after dapagliflozin initiation.But in other study, empagliflozin significantly reshaped the gut microbiota after 1 month of treatment in T2D patients and be associated with shifts in plasma metabolites. Similarly, canagliflozin reduces plasma uremic toxins in a CKD mice model.However, it remains unknown whether treatment with dapagliflozin alters the gut microbiota in CKD patients without T2D; furthermore, the relationship between the gut microbiota, uremic toxins production and CKD-related beneficial effects of dapagliflozin remains elusive. Herein, the investigator will investigate the clinical benefits of dapagliflozin and possible associations between its renal function benefits and alterations in plasmatic gut microbiota-derived metabolites and the gut microbiota composition in non-T2D CKD patients. To this end, the investigator will conduct an observational clinical trial in non-T2D CKD patients with the primary aim of investigating dapagliflozin-induced compositional changes of intestinal gut microbiota.
The investigators designed an observational multicenter explorative in vivo study to investigate the changes in ceftriaxone pharmacokinetics in blood and ascites. The investigators will include a total of 20 patients with liver cirrhosis admitted to the ward of participating hospitals. Patients are eligible when receiving ceftriaxone and concomitantly receive paracentesis. The investigators will collect all available waste blood samples of each participant, starting from study entry up until 48 hours after the last dosing interval of ceftriaxone. The investigators will collect all available waste ascites samples of each participant up until 48 hours after the last dosing interval of ceftriaxone. Duration of the trial: The study duration is variable and depends on the duration of ceftriaxone treatment and duration of hospital admission, which both are determined by the treating physician and is not influenced by study participation. Patients will be eligible for study inclusion when patients received (a single dose of) ceftriaxone treatment and undergo paracentesis during ceftriaxone treatment. The study will end 48 hours after the last dosing interval of ceftriaxone or until hospital discharge, whichever comes first. Study timeline: The investigators expect to enrol 1-2 participants every month. The total enrolment time will thus be approximately 12 months.
This study aimed to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and safety of SHR4640 tablets in subjects with moderate renal insufficiency and healthy subjects, and to explore the relationship between renal function (e.g., eGFR) and SHR4640 pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters.
This is an open-label, single-dose study to evaluate the pharmacokinetics and safety of HSK21542 in subjects with mild, moderate and severe renal impairment compared to the matched control subjects with normal renal function.
Recent trials have demonstrated positive renal outcomes of sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) additive to angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitors (ACEis) in adult patients with diabetic and non-diabetic chronic kidney disease (CKD). These trials included no children. The hypothesis of DOUBLE PRO-TECT Alport is to demonstrate superiority of the SGLT2i dapagliflozin in preventing progression of the chronic kidney disease Alport syndrome in children and young adults at early stages of disease. Preventing the rise of albuminuria by dapagliflozin would result in a very significant delay of end-stage kidney failure (ESKF) and improved quality of life. If successful, DOUBLE PRO-TECT Alport will change the treatment recommendations for children with CKD, who have a very high unmet medical need.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness between conventional hemodialysis and hemodialysis using hemoperfusion adsorbents in renal dysfunction caused by sepsis
The primary purpose of this study is to assess the effect of renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of emraclidine following administration of a single oral dose in participants with mild, moderate, and severe renal impairment relative to matched participants with normal renal function.
This is a prospective, single-center, open and self-controlled study.The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Paxlovid for the treatment of COVID-19 patients with severe chronic kidney disease.
The objective of this proposal is to investigate the acute effects of whole-body passive heat therapy using far-infrared technology on vascular function, exercise capacity, and renal function in CKD patients. The central hypothesis is that an acute bout of whole-body passive heat therapy will be well-tolerated and lead to acute improvements in large blood vessel (macrovascular) function, small blood vessel (microvascular) function, and exercise capacity without significantly altering markers of acute kidney injury.
