NCT03102996
The aim of this study is to test if alkali treatment will preserve kidney graft function and diminish the progression of chronic kidney disease in renal transplant patients. Additionally the underlying mechanisms of nephrotoxicity of metabolic acidosis will be investigated in this cohort. This study is a multi-center, prospective, randomized, single-blind (patient), placebo-controlled interventional trial to test the superiority of alkali treatment in comparison to placebo on preservation of kidney function in 300 kidney transplant recipients. The duration of the study will be 2 years for the individual participant. The patients will be randomized into 2 arms: intervention arm (sodium hydrogen carbonate, product: Nephrotrans®) and placebo arm (placebo comparator). Several studies in CKD (chronic kidney disease) patients have shown that alkali therapy slows progression of CKD.
NCT04498156
In this survey study, researchers want to find out more about how physicians are treating patients diagnosed with reduced kidney function (chronic kidney disease, CKD) and high blood sugar level (type 2 diabetes); what physicians know about the different treatment options available; and how they use this knowledge to treat their patients successfully. Additionally, researchers want to gather information about patient's awareness of their disease and which criteria they consider important for their treatment of the disease. The study will survey a total of 150 patients with type 2 diabetes: 50 patients with mild CKD; 50 patients with moderate CKD; and 50 patients with severe CKD. Patients eligible for this study can be male or female and should be at least 18 years old. In addition, a total of 150 physicians will be surveyed. Physicians eligible for this study may be general practitioners, endocrinologist, or nephrologists.
