Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Age greater than or equal to 18 years and less than 80 years

  3. Documented albuminuria defined as a presence of albuminuria on two occasions in the last six months:

    3.1. Albumin ≥ 30 mg/24 hour in a 24 hour urine collection, or 3.2. Albumin ≥ 20 μg/min in a short-time urine collection, or 3.3. Albumin ≥ 30 mg/L in a spot urine sample, or 3.4. A spot-urine albumin-creatinine ration (ACR) ≥ 30 mg/g creatinine (≥ 2.5 mg/mmol creatinine in men, ≥ 3.5 mg/mmol creatinine in women)

  4. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) using the 4-variable Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) equation of ≥ 25 mL/min/1.73 m2

  7. PTH > 200 pg/mL
  8. Poorly controlled hypertension defined as systolic blood pressure ≥ 180 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 110 mm Hg
  9. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≤ 110 mm Hg
  10. History of kidney stones
  11. History of severe chronic disease (e.g. chronic liver disease)

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Diabetic kidney disease (nephropathy) develops in nearly 40% of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Diabetic nephropathy is caused by damage to the small blood vessels in the kidneys due to uncontrolled blood sugar levels, which mean that the kidneys become less effective at filtering urine. This is associated with albuminuria (protein in the urine). Treatment with some drugs reduces the loss of albumin through the urine and delays disease progression. There is increasing evidence that vitamin D could also be important in management of diabetic kidney disease. The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of a combined regimen of calcitriol (active vitamin D) and established drugs for diabetic kidney disease.
Detailed Description
The investigators propose to test the efficacy and safety of a combined regimen of calcitriol and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) or angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) in type 2 diabetes subjects with albuminuria. In the proposed study, the bioactive form of vitamin D (calcitriol) is being used for its ability to synergize with ACEI or ARB and prevent renal disease progression. The study expands on preliminary studies demonstrating a reduction in proteinuria with vitamin D analogue treatment, in subjects with both diabetic as well as non-diabetic kidney disease.
