NCT00286403
Patients developing kidney failure after open heart surgery experience an abrupt decrease in blood flow to the kidney. The investigators hypothesize that administration of fenoldopam mesylate (a drug that increases blood flow to the kidney) to patients early in the course of their disease could reduce progression to dialysis-dependent acute renal failure. The investigators also hypothesize that restoring blood flow could induce additional injury to the kidney through the release of reactive oxygen species. Therefore, patients in this protocol will be randomized to receive a fenoldopam or the anti-oxidant MESNA. The investigators hypothesize that combination treatment with Fenoldopam and MESNA will decrease the incidence of death or dialysis at 21 days in patients with early post-operative acute renal failure.
NCT00993733
The prevalence of acute renal failure in intensive care is estimated at between 5 and 20% depending on diagnostic criteria retained. And half of patients require the use of hemodialysis. Continuous veno-venous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) is one of the hemodialysis technique widely used in intensive care unit. The CVVHDF is performed at the bedside, by a mobile generator with a semi permeable membrane, a blood circuit, a dialysate circuit and a feedback circuit. The implementation of a CVVHDF requires the use of large amounts of biological liquid essential to enable the purification of blood during its passage through the artificial kidney. The objective of this study is to assess time nursing work and the costs of each method.
NCT00467025
This is a phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, multi-center study to estimate the improvement in progression free survival (PFS) and evaluate the safety and tolerability of AMG 386 in combination with sorafenib in the treatment of subjects with advanced clear cell carcinoma of the kidney.
