NCT04741646
We will conduct a 12-month, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial to assess the effects of therapy with ferric citrate (FC) on changes in intact FGF23 levels (iFGF23, primary endpoint) in 160 pediatric patients (80 in each of the two arms) aged 6-18 years of either sex with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 3-4 and age-appropriate normal serum phosphate levels. Participants will be randomized to one of the two groups: 1) FC or 2) FC placebo. Participants will be recruited from 20 core clinical sites.
NCT06226649
This is a randomized controlled feasibility trial conducted on patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and their significant other
NCT01644903
This study is being done to test blood, urine and tissue samples to see if this can help decide if CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease), AR (Acute Rejection) and HCV (Hepatitis C Virus) can be identified in its early stages. CKD damage to the kidneys, AR and HCV all lower the body's ability to function properly. Early detection of these conditions could assist with successful treatment and possibly lead to less repeat organ transplants.
NCT02671552
This pilot clinical trial compares the imaging results of contrast-enhanced ultrasound to contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT), the current clinical standard, in predicting treatment response in patients with kidney cancer undergoing cryosurgery (a procedure in which an extremely cold liquid or an instrument called a cryoprobe is used to freeze and destroy abnormal tissue). Using contrast-enhanced ultrasound that does not involve a dye may help patients avoid side effects from a dye that is usually used in MRI or CT and may help doctors measure blood flow and determine whether the cryosurgery procedure treated the kidney tumor.
NCT03994471
Randomized, controlled, parallel groups, open-label, blinded end-point assessment, multicenter study, comparing the effects of a low glucose peritoneal dialysis solution, XyloCore, to glucose solutions (Physioneal, Fixioneal, Dianeal, Balance, Bicavera, Bicanova or Equibalance) only regimen, in patients with End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) receiving Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD), over a 6-month study period.
NCT06825234
The aim of this study is to determine a multidimensional signature (integrating frailty and patient-reported outcomes measures (PROMs) at entry into stage 4B/5 CKD) to improve prediction of renal death (dialysis, transplantation, conservative management, death).
NCT05570305
The aim of this study is to test the hypothesis that the effects on albuminuria of combination treatment with the endothelin receptor antagonist zibotentan and SGLT2i dapagliflozin are complimentary and additive while the fluid retaining effects of zibotentan can be mitigated by dapagliflozin.
NCT06916624
Study on the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy of 18F-NY104 PET/CT in diagnosing primary, recurrent, and metastatic lesions of renal cell carcinoma; and investigate the effect of oral low-dose CAIX inhibitor (Acetazolamide) on the tissue distribution of 18F-NY104 in renal cell carcinoma patients, particularly in the stomach and kidneys.
NCT06949215
This is a prospective, single-center, single-arm, diagnostic phase 2 study aimed at evaluating the sensitivity and specificity of 68Ga-NYM096 PET/CT in detecting clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) in patients with complex renal cysts who are scheduled for surgical resection. The study will use histopathological diagnosis as the reference standard to assess the diagnostic accuracy of 68Ga-NYM096 PET/CT in identifying ccRCC within operable complex renal cystic lesion. The findings will provide critical insights into the performance of 68Ga-NYM096 PET/CT as a non-invasive imaging tool for the preoperative detection of ccRCC in this patient population.
NCT04616677
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetic of a single oral dose of JNJ-42847922 in adult participants with renal impairment compared with healthy participants with normal renal function.
NCT00327860
The Division of Kidney, Urologic, and Hematologic Diseases (DKUHD) of the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), in collaboration with the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) and the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI) funded a cooperative agreement including two Clinical Coordinating Centers (at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and at Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City), a central biochemistry laboratory (at the University of Minnesota) and a Data Coordinating Center (at Johns Hopkins School of Public Health) to conduct a prospective epidemiological study of children with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
NCT04620590
Open label, mechanistic, single-arm study to evaluate the natriuretic effect of 2 weeks dapagliflozin treatment in T2DM patients with impaired renal function. It will measure the average change in 24-hr sodium excretion from average Baseline to average values at Day 2 to 4 within the study group. The study will allow for an up to 6-week Screening and Run-in Period, a 2-week Treatment Period and a 5-day Follow-up Period. Patients will consume food from standardized food boxes starting on Day -6 (patients not on insulin) or Day -20 at the earliest (patients on insulin) of the study until Day 18 (inclusive). Eligible patients will receive dapagliflozin 10 mg tablets once daily for 14±1 days starting on Day 1. This will be followed by a Follow-up Period of 5 days.
NCT03859388
Our group recently reported that tocilizumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody against the IL-6 receptor, may be effective when administered monthly to patients with chronic antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR). The current paradigm to assess response to therapy involves serial monitoring for donor-specific antibodies, measurement of kidney function with creatinine, and periodic kidney transplant biopsies to survey for histologic findings indicative of ongoing ABMR. A new non-invasive blood test, donor-derived cell-free DNA (Allosure) has recently reported to have a high degree of discrimination for rejection and may be used to assess the likelihood of rejection. It has not been tested to see if it can be used to assess treatment response for rejection. This study will assess longitudinal changes in donor-derived cell-free DNA measurements in response to monthly therapy with tocilizumab for chronic ABMR and correlate these measurements to histologic changes on a follow-up kidney transplant biopsy.
NCT06936293
Objective: This study aimed to examine the effects of mindfulness meditation on the quality of sleep, perceived stress, serum cortisol, and C-reactive protein in end-stage renal disease patients undergoing hemodialysis. Methods: An experimental study with a repeated measures design was conducted among 56 patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing hemodialysis at Jahra Hospital, Kuwait, between September 2024 and February 2025. The patients were randomly assigned to the experimental (n = 28) and control groups (n = 28). The experimental group participated in 30-minute mindfulness meditation sessions (three sessions a week for eight weeks) held during their hemodialysis sessions; the participants in the control group were instructed to sit with their eyes closed and relax for 30 min three times a week for eight weeks during hemodialysis sessions. The dependent variables of both groups were measured at baseline (T0), middle of intervention (T1), and end of intervention (T2) using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), and Biomedical markers (Access Cortisol Assay and CRP reagent).
NCT06935786
The goal of this study is to learn if a simple home exercise program can benefit patients with advanced chronic kidney disease. There is also an observational part of the study without an exercise program. The study will record patients' mortality, cardiovascular events, emergency department visits, hospital stays, need for dialysis and 6 minutes walking distance. Also maximal oxygen uptake, quality of life and bone fractures are recorded and blood tests and X-rays analyzed. The prospective observational part of the study will investigate the link between cardiovascular and kidney health as well as exercise capacity and adverse outcomes.
NCT06933108
Diabetes and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are two distinct pathologies. The former is defined as an impairment in insulin production and/or utilization, while the latter refers to structural or functional abnormalities of the kidneys. However, these two diseases share a common complication: peripheral neuropathy. This condition affects between 50% and 60% of patients with diabetes or CKD. Peripheral neuropathy involves the destruction of sensory and motor neurons, leading to a wide range of painful symptoms while also reducing force production capacity. Among the diagnostic tests used, the most accessible clinical tests suffer from high variability due to human subjectivity (e.g., the tuning fork test, which requires examiner expertise and verbal patient feedback), whereas laboratory electrophysiological tests can only detect the largest neurons, which are affected at later stages. Although composite clinical tests have been developed to improve neuropathy screening performance, they still inherit the limitations of their individual components. In other words, they remain subject to variability related to the examiner's experience and the patient's ability to understand instructions, while also being performed through various procedures that lack a standardized consensus. Moreover, these composite scores are particularly time-consuming and are therefore rarely used in clinical practice. As a result, no method currently allows for large-scale, early, and reliable screening of peripheral neuropathy. Our recent work and emerging studies suggest that assessing functional capacities could serve as an objective and early marker of neuropathic impairment, even before clinical diagnosis. Specifically, the quantification of postural balance performance using stabilometric methods (i.e., center of pressure displacement area) and unipedal balance time could predict the presence of diabetes-related peripheral neuropathy with over 95% accuracy compared to diagnosis with a composite clinical method (unpublished results). Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate physical and balance capacities assessed during routine care in adapted physical activity settings, in order to determine whether the development of a composite score could help estimate the risk of peripheral neuropathy in individuals with diabetes and CKD.
