NCT05078047
Immunotherapy (IO), such as treatment with anti-PD-1, PD-L1, or CTLA-4 inhibitors, is a rapidly expanding treatment for multiple metastatic cancers with improved survival for certain cancers. However, the optimal duration of immunotherapies is currently unknown. Our hypothesis is that a reduced dose intensity of IO could be as effective as the current standard treatment in term of prevention of the disease progression. If proved right, this study will have a positive medico-economic impact by reduction of the costs associated with the treatment and the toxicity, and an increase of the patients' quality of life.
NCT02419495
This phase Ib trial studies the side effects and best dose of selinexor when given together with several different standard chemotherapy or immunotherapy regimens in treating patients with malignancies that have spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment (advanced). Selinexor may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Studying selinexor with different standard chemotherapy or immunotherapy regimens may help doctors learn the side effects and best dose of selinexor that can be given with different types of treatments in one study.
NCT07004387
Orthotopic liver transplantation is the definitive treatment for end-stage liver failure, with renal failure being an important complication of this procedure that has implications for long- and short-term prognosis, affecting ICU stay and hospitalization time. Several studies have suggested that intravenous amino acids, particularly L-arginine, may have protective effects on renal function due to increased renal blood flow, which could be explained by enhanced production of nitric oxide among other mechanisms that are still unclear. In this context, we developed the hypothesis that the infusion of an amino acid solution in the perioperative period could reduce the incidence of acute renal failure in this group of patients; for this, we conducted a monocentric, analytical, prospective, interventional pilot study comparing standard treatment (in historically transplanted patients) with a group of patients who were administered amino acids in the perioperative period, considering that this medication is low-cost and has practically minimal side effects.
NCT06318676
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the drug levels of mezigdomide in participants with renal impairment.
NCT07001436
Azvudine(FNC)，a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor, make itself a better candidate to be co-formulated in other anti-HIV therapies, thus to improve patient's compliance. FNC is a broad-spectrum RNA virus inhibitor that inhibits the novel coronavirus RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. This trial uses a non-randomized, open-label, parallel, single-dose adaptive design aimed at investigating the effects of varying degrees of renal insufficiency on the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of a single oral dose of 3 mg Azvudine tablets in humans. On the first day of the study, a single oral dose of 3 mg ( 3 tablets ) of Azvudine tablets is taken orally on an empty stomach. Biological sample collection and safety examination will be performed in this trial.
NCT05149196
Radical nephrectomy and nephroureterectomy are common operations for the treatment of renal cell carcinoma and upper tract urothelial carcinoma, respectively. However, acute kidney injury frequently occurs after surgery. And the occurrence of acute kidney injury is associated with an increased risk of chronic kidney disease. Intraoperative hypotension is identified as an important risk factor of postoperative acute kidney injury. Preliminary studies showed that goal-directed hemodynamic management may reduce kidney injury after surgery but requires further demonstration. We hypothesized that goal-directed hemodynamic management combining hydration, inotropes, and forced diuresis to maintain pulse pressure variation \<9%, mean arterial pressure ≥85 mmHg, and urine flow rate \>200 ml/h (3 ml/kg/h) may reduce the incidence of acute kidney injury and improve long-term renal outcome after radical nephrectomy or nephroureterectomy. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of goal-directed hemodynamic management on the occurrence of acute and persistent kidney injury in patients following radical nephrectomy and nephroureterectomy.
NCT06831175
Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare aggressive malignant tumor. According to the literature, the 5-year survival rate of ACC is 12%-47%. For patients with advanced ACC, mitotane alone or combined with traditional chemotherapy was the first-line standard treatment, but its progression-free survival was only about 1 year. The efficacy of mitotane monotherapy is approximately 10% to 30%. FIRM-ACT trial reported an objective response rate (ORR) of 23.2% for etoposide, doxorubicin, cisplatin, and mitotane (EDP-M) chemotherapy regimen. Our phase II study found that PD-1 inhibitor camrelizumab and apatinib showed impressive clinical data in the second-line treatment of relapsed and metastatic ACC patients. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PD-1 inhibitor camrelizumab combined with apatinib and mitotane in advanced ACC, and to explore a new treatment strategy for patients with advanced ACC.
NCT06288451
The De-emphasize Parathyroid Hormone (DePTH) Study is a 12-month pragmatic, randomized, parallel-group, active comparator, open-label, blinded end-point study of 90 patients with incident or prevalent secondary hyperparathyroidism and kidney failure treated with in-center hemodialysis. It tests the hypothesis that low fixed-dose oral calcitriol (intervention) will have more favorable effects on a comprehensive panel of biomarkers that assesses mineral metabolism, bone turnover, and serum calcification propensity, compared with variably-dosed intravenous activated vitamin D titrated to PTH targets (usual care).
NCT04218721
The purpose with this study is to test a digital patient-provider communication tool for symptom and needs management among patients with chronic health conditions.
NCT05518253
This is a phase I clinical study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of CAR-T in patients with CD70-positive advanced/metastatic solid tumors, and to obtain the maximum tolerated dose of CAR-T and phase II Recommended dose.
NCT05096195
PREFERRED-1 is a pilot study designed to determine the feasibility of a large randomized, pragmatic, open-label, comparative-effectiveness trial of denosumab for the prevention of fragility fractures in people receiving hemodialysis. The pilot study will enroll at least 60 patients from across at least 6 different hemodialysis centres in Ontario, Canada. Patients on outpatient maintenance hemodialysis at high risk of fragility fracture, will be randomized 1:1 to a denosumab care pathway vs. usual care. Primary outcomes include recruitment feasibility and treatment adherence. Secondary outcomes include safety and participant satisfaction with our protocol and processes.
NCT05362474
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Identifying new treatments for DKD to be used alone or in combination with other therapies is a high priority. Inflammation plays a key role in DKD and targeting pro-inflammatory lipid mediators called leukotrienes may represent a promising therapy for DKD. The current proposal will investigate whether montelukast, a leukotriene antagonist, reduces proteinuria and improves vascular function and arterial stiffness in patients with DKD.
NCT03781089
The purpose of this study is to determine whether once-daily dosing of patiromer will reduce the frequency of hyperkalemic episodes in ESRD (end stage renal disease) study participants who receive conventional hemodialysis (HD). The study objective is to determine if patiromer administered orally once a day with breakfast or lunch will reduce episodes of hyperkalemia in ESRD study participants who receive thrice-weekly HD.
NCT01549769
This study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of bardoxolone methyl in patients with chronic kidney disease and type 2 diabetes.
NCT04337970
Researchers are doing this study to find out if the combination of the drugs axitinib and talazoparib is a safe and effective treatment for people with your previously treated advanced kidney cancer. Researchers will look for the highest dose of talazoparib that causes few or mild side effects when given in combination with a standard dose of axitinib.
NCT06659835
The goal of this observational study is to learn about amino acid loss during continuous renal replacement therapy and plasma amino acid levels in intensive care patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: What amount of amino acids is lost over the duration of continuous renal replacement therapy? How do amino acid plasma concentrations change over time in patients with and without continuous renal replacement therapy? Amino acid concentrations will be measured in the effluent and in the plasma of patients receiving continuous renal replacement therapy as part of their regular medical care. In addition, plasma concentrations of amino acids will be studied in patients without renal replacement therapy.
NCT06968182
The study was a double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled cross-over study. 27 healthy subjects received a four days standardized, sodium reduced diet (100 mmol sodium) and treatment with sodium chloride (200 mmol sodium) or placebo in a randomized order. After the treatment the subjects went to an examination day. With 1 L isotonic sodium chlorid intravenous in 25 minutes, the subjects were further sodium and volume loaded. Change in salt blood test (SaBT), syndecan-1(syn-1) and heparan sulfate (HS), brachial and central blood pressure (BP), pulse wave velocity (PWV) and augmentation index (AIx) were measured. Baseline blood samples were taken before the treatment periods

This is a First-in-Human Phase IA/IB/II open label dose escalation study of intravenous (IV) administration of ONC-392, a humanized anti-CTLA4 IgG1 monoclonal antibody, as single agent and in combination with pembrolizumab in participants with advanced or metastatic solid tumors and non-small cell lung cancers.
NCT06988345
All patients with a juxtarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm who underwent open aneurysm therapy between January 2010 and July 2020 were included retrospectively.
NCT06986265
Cachexia is common in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Cachexia is a complex syndrome, in which inflammation and retention of uremic toxins are two main contributing factors. In this context, the role of the gut microbiome in CKD cachexia and the potential benefit of increasing the dialysis dose have been poorly explored. Here the investigators propose to study the links between cachexia and the gut microbiome, in association with inflammation and uremic toxins, in dialysis. The specific objectives are the followings: 1. Set up a prospective cohort of deeply characterized kidney failure patients treated with hemodialysis (in-center, self-care dialysis in a satellite unit and at home) and peritoneal dialysis, including evaluation of cachexia, body composition, collection of feces and blood to characterize the gut microbiota, measure serum levels of uremic toxins and inflammatory markers, with a longitudinal follow-up. 2. To compare cachectic versus non-cachectic dialysis patients in terms of gut microbiota, inflammatory markers, level of uremic toxins, muscle transcriptome, dialysis dose and modality. In a subgroup analysis, the investigators plan to compare the different techniques of dialysis (in-center vs home-hemodialysis vs peritoneal dialysis).
