NCT01810939
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of patiromer (investigational drug) in the treatment of hyperkalemia (high serum potassium). The study also evaluated the effect of withdrawing patiromer treatment and assessed whether chronic treatment with patiromer prevented the recurrence of hyperkalemia. The safety of patiromer treatment was also evaluated.
NCT02796300
Numerous catheter designs have been studied to increase efficacy and minimize complications of catheter hemodialysis. Major complications of catheters include thrombosis, central venous stenosis, infection, and dialysis inadequacy. Thrombosis must be avoided if possible because using too many catheters may exhaust all of the catheter insertion sites on the body, as well as increase the risk of infection. This prospective study compares the complications and general outcomes of patients who receive hemodialysis using the mainstream Palindrome catheter versus the newer BioFlo DuraMax catheter. This study will examine outcomes of patients who receive hemodialysis using either the Palindrome catheter or the BioFlo catheter. Patients will be observed and outcomes will be recorded for three to six months. Outcomes will be analyzed and compared to draw conclusions on which catheter produces less catheter thrombosis.
NCT02138838
The primary objective was to evaluate the efficacy of cinacalcet for reducing the plasma intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) level by ≥ 30%.
NCT01290029
The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of cinacalcet after a single oral dose in children aged 28 days to less than 6 years with chronic kidney disease receiving dialysis.
NCT02187302
This study to evaluate treatment in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) which has progressed through 2 to 3 prior lines of therapy, with the investigational drug CRLX101 in combination with bevacizumab compared to treatment with a standard of care therapy. The study will compare which treatment resulted in longer time before progression of the RCC. Patients will be treated and followed for progression of their disease on average for up to 6 months.
NCT04006691
This trial is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of UGN-101 administered to the upper urinary tract (UUT) in patients who were treated in Trial TC-UT-03, found to be a complete response (CR) at the Primary Disease Evaluation (PDE) 1 Visit and are subsequently found to have a documented recurrence of low grade (LG) upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) at follow up (FU).
NCT01307267
A study of PF-05082566, a 4-1BB agonist monoclonal antibody (mAb), in patients with solid tumors or b-cell lymphomas, and in combination with rituximab in patients with CD20 positive Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL).
NCT01984242
This multicenter, randomized, open-label study will evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of atezolizumab as monotherapy or in combination with bevacizumab versus sunitinib in participants with histologically confirmed, inoperable, locally advanced or metastatic renal cell carcinoma who have not received prior systemic therapy either in the adjuvant or metastatic setting.
NCT01030783
This is an open-label, randomized, controlled, multi-national, multi-center, parallel-arm trial comparing tivozanib to sorafenib in subjects with advanced RCC. The study is designed to compare the PFS, OS, ORR, DR, safety and tolerability, and kidney specific symptoms/health outcome measurements of tivozanib and sorafenib.
NCT00704483
This study will evaluate the efficacy of SBR759 compared to sevelamer HCl in lowering serum phosphate levels in Chronic Kidney Disease patients on hemodialysis
NCT01846520
This randomized clinical trial studies the Family Caregiver Palliative Care Intervention in supporting caregivers of patients with stage II-IV gastrointestinal, gynecologic, urologic and lung cancers. Education and telephone counseling may reduce stress and improve the well-being and quality of life of caregivers of cancer patients.
NCT00106301
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of extended treatment with FK228 in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma or hormone refractory prostate cancer who have at least demonstrated stable disease on prior Fujisawa sponsored FK228 clinical trials.
NCT02341664
The purpose of the Patient and Provider Assessment of Lipid Management Registry (PALM) is to gain a better understanding of physicians' cholesterol medication prescribing practices, patient and physician attitudes and beliefs related to cholesterol management, and current utilization of cholesterol-lowering therapies given the new ACC/AHA guideline recommendations. The PALM Registry hopes to allow for the design of ways to improve cholesterol management and decrease the burden of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in the US.
NCT03191188
Hypothyroidism, defined by elevated thyrotropin (TSH) levels, is a common endocrine complication of chronic kidney disease that has been associated with impaired quality of life and cardiovascular complications. While levothyroxine is one of the most frequently prescribed medications in chronic kidney disease patients, little is known about its efficacy and safety in this population. This study will investigate 1) whether levothyroxine adequately lowers thyrotropin (TSH) levels to therapeutic target ranges, and 2) if thyroid hormone replacement improves quality of life and cardiovascular markers, without leading to wasting in dialysis patients.
NCT03189186
Patients will undergo a screening process as per standard of care to identify disease type and severity. Careful history and physical examination will also take place to rule out major heart, lung, or kidney disease and pregnancy that may affect how they will respond to the treatment. Patients with advanced (stage II and above with multiple tumors or tumors within vessels) and metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma will be first treated with cryoablation on a large primary tumor and then given 200 mg pembrolizumab every 3-weeks 3 cycles , followed by partial/radical nephrectomy. Pembrolizumab is a biologic drug that adheres to the cell death receptors on white blood cells preventing there death and leading to an increased immunologic response. Cryoablation will be used in these patients to initially trigger and immune response to cancerous cells that is then magnified by the drug. After the surgery, patients will resume pembrolizumab for additional 5 cycles or up to a total of 2 years if a partial response is observed at the discretion of the treating medical oncologist or urologist until complete tumor remission, disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, patient refusal, or patient death due to any cause.
NCT04239391
The main purpose is to determine the safety of Triferic iron administered via dialysate and intravenously in pediatric patients with chronic kidney disease on chronic hemodialysis (CKD-5HD). It is a global, multi- center, open-label study.
NCT03236246
The objectives of this study are to assess the long-term efficacy and safety of different dose regimens of KRX-0502 in the treatment of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in adult subjects with non-dialysis dependent chronic kidney disease (CKD).
NCT02608125
This is a multi-center, open label, non-randomized Phase 1 study, to be conducted in two parts, Part A, and Part B. Part A in solid tumors included the dose escalation phase for evaluating the safety and tolerability profile of PRN1371, a FGFR 1-4 Kinase inhibitor. Part B is the Cohort Expansion phase in patients with metastatic urothelial carcinoma to further evaluate safety and tolerability, preliminary activity, PK, and PD in patients with FGFR genetic alterations.
