Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 70 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Serum creatinine concentration of 3.0 to 5.0 mg per deciliter (265 to 442 µmol/L)
  2. Creatinine clearance of 15 to 30 ml per minute per 1.73m2, with variations of less than 30 percent in the three months before screening evaluation
  3. non-diabetic renal disease

  3. Malignant hypertension (blood pressure >180/120 mm Hg) or blood pressure <110mm Hg without antihypertensive treatment
  4. Treatment with drugs affecting serum potassium such as diuretic, β2 receptor blocker et al.
  5. Treatment with corticosteroids, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, or immunosuppressive drugs, especially ciclosporin A

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The primary aim of the present study is to assess the safety of combined treatment of benazepril (an ACE inhibitor) or losartan (an ARB) in non-diabetic patients with advanced renal insufficiency.
Detailed Description
Interruption of the renin-angiotensin systerm (RAS) with an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor or an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) slows the progression of chronic renal insufficiency in the presence or absence of diabetes. Even for advanced chronic renal insufficiency (stage 4 CKD), ACE inhibitors and ARBs can still provide renoprotection. Some clinical studies showed that dual RAS blockage seemed to enhance the antiproteinuric effect compared with single-agent ACE inhibitor or ARB and then improve renal survival. However, in the only one randomized controlled trial investigating the renoprotection of combined ACE inhibitor and ARB for mild or moderate chronic renal insufficiency (the mean creatinine value is 2.9mg/dl), the incidence of hyperkalemia was increased in combination therapy compared with monotherapy. Although increase of hyperkalemia was not statistical significant, it suggested that combination treatment of ACEI and ARB might increase the incidence of hyperkalemia in patients with advanced renal insufficiency. However, it is still undetermined whether combination treatment of ACE inhibitor and ARB is safe as an ACE inhibitor or ARB monotherapy in advanced non-diabetic chronic renal insufficiency (stage 4 CKD). The primary aim of the present study is to assess the safety of combined treatment of benazepril (an ACE inhibitor) or losartan (an ARB) in non-diabetic patients with advanced renal insufficiency.
