NCT00297765
A study to determine the optimal dose and blood level of Prograf® in long-term maintenance of kidney transplant patients.
NCT00646035
To determine the safety and efficacy of paricalcitol capsules as compared to placebo for treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism by decreasing serum intact parathyroid hormone levels in end stage renal disease subjects on peritoneal dialysis.
NCT00298168
Selectins have been implicated in the pathogenesis of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced kidney injury and resultant delayed graft function (DGF). PSGL-1 is a ligand for P-, E-, and L-selectin. It has been reported that YSPSL (rPSGL-Ig) blocks P-selectin and, to a lesser degree, E- and L-selectin. Both sPSGL-1 and YSPSL (rPSGL-Ig) have been shown in animal models to reduce both cytokines and tissue damage associated with ischemia reperfusion and to improve renal function post-transplant. Therefore, the current phase I/II clinical study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of YSPSL (rPSGL-Ig) in preventing DGF in patients undergoing cadaveric kidney transplants and to determine a dose for future pivotal studies.
NCT00056173
This phase II, 43 patient trial, will evaluate the efficacy of GTI-2040, an antisense oligonucleotide complementary to the R2 component of ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) mRNA, in combination with capecitabine, in the setting of advanced/metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Preclinical studies have shown synergy between GTI-2040 and capecitabine against renal cell carcinoma.
NCT00062699
To evaluate the survival benefit associated with Zemplar therapy as compared to Calcijex for the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism in subjects with Stage V chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis as measured by time to death.
NCT00628680
The purpose of this study is to determine if AAT-023 (Zuragen) solution is superior to Heparin in preventing Catheter Related Blood Stream Infections for End Stage Renal Disease patients.
NCT00048451
The objective of this study is to determine whether paricalcitol is safe and effective compared to placebo in reducing elevated serum PTH levels in patients with chronic kidney disease.
NCT00768404
VI-0521, a fixed dose combination of immediate-release (IR) phentermine and controlled-release (CR) topiramate, is in Phase III clinical development as a potential therapy for obesity. In human, both phentermine and topiramate are primarily cleared by renal excretion. The contribution of hepatic metabolism to elimination of phentermine and topiramate is not significant. Obese patients, the proposed indicated population for future treatment with VI-0521, are likely to have renal impairment. Therefore, this study is important in understanding the effect of renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics of topiramate and phentermine in subjects with renal impairment compared to subjects with normal renal function.
