Active clinical trials for "Renal Insufficiency, Chronic"

This is a phase II study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of AND017 in renal anemia patients on dialysis

Almost 15% of Americans have chronic kidney disease (CKD), with an even higher rate in Veterans due to common risk factors such as high blood pressure and diabetes. People with CKD have a high risk of cardiovascular (CV) diseases, such as heart attacks, heart failure, and strokes. Extra fluid in the body, called volume overload, may lead to CV disease in people with CKD. It is unknown if volume overload develops in the earliest stages of CKD, when treating it with common, inexpensive medicines called diuretics may improve long-term CV outcomes. This study will lay important groundwork to answer this question in Veterans with early CKD by comparing two ways to measure volume overload and studying the change in common symptoms like fatigue and short-term CV function after treatment with diuretic medicines.

This trial will study the safety and efficacy of intravenous infusion of cultured allogeneic adult umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells for the treatment of Chronic Kidney Disease.

Frailty is very frequent among patients waiting for a kidney transplantation (KT). Frailty and poor fitness powerfully predict mortality, kidney graft survival, and healthcare utilization after KT. Frailty in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) displays a constellation of features that characterize a special population. Intervention is essential to improve quality of life for frail CKD patients, regardless of their age. A pre-transplant intervention including physical therapy, nutritional measures and psychological support scheduled for before the transplant may improve patient retention and compliance, better mitigate the effects of frailty and poor fitness after KT, and improve main outcomes in frail CKD patients. The main objective is to assess effectiveness, feasibility and safety of a prehabilitation program (exercise, nutritional plans, psychological advice) in frail and non-frail KT candidates on clinical and functional outcomes after KT.

The study aims to compare between the use of continuous low dose insulin infusion versus co-administration of low dose continuous insulin infusion and early subcutaneous insulin glargine in diabetic ketoacidosis patients with chronic renal impairment. aim to investigate the effect of using the long acting insulin analogue glargine on the resolution time of diabetic ketoacidosis in renal impairment patients who have altered insulin pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics and the rate of adverse effects of this approach

This is a phase II study to investigate the safety, preliminary efficacy and pharmacokinetics of SC0062 capsule in patients with chronic kidney disease (diabetic kidney disease and IgA nephropathy)with albuminuria compared to matching placebo.

Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people with chronic kidney disease (CKD), a progressive decrease in the kidneys' ability to work properly, and type 2 diabetes (T2D). In people with T2D, the body does not make enough of a hormone called insulin or does not use the insulin well enough. Insulin's role is to regulate the amount of glucose (sugar) in the blood. Too much blood sugar can cause damage to the kidneys over time. Consequently, CKD can happen as one of the complications of T2D. The study treatment finerenone works by blocking a group of proteins, called mineralocorticoid receptor. An increased stimulation of the mineralocorticoid receptor is known to trigger injury and inflammation in the kidney and is therefore thought to play a role in CKD. Finerenone is already available in several countries for doctors to prescribe to people with CKD and T2D. In addition, it was recently approved in India with a request to specifically gather information on finerenone therapy in Indians. The main purpose of this study is to learn how safe finerenone is in Indian people with CKD and T2D. For this, the researchers will count the number of participants who have: medical problems after taking finerenone abnormal high levels of potassium in the blood (called hyperkalemia). Researcher will also count the number of participants in whom hyperkalemia: leads to stop of finerenone treatment requires treatment to filter wastes and water from the blood leads to a hospital stay. Doctors keep track of all medical problems that happen in studies, even if they do not think the medical problems might be related to the study treatments. In addition, the study team will collect more data about how well finerenone works in Indian people with CKD and T2D under real world setting. Working well means that the treatment can prevent the following from happening: reduced kidney function over a period of at least 4 weeks death from renal problems death due to conditions affecting the heart and blood circulation heart attack (blocked blood flow to the heart) hospital stay due to a condition which occurs when the heart does not pump blood as well as it should changes of the albumin and creatinine levels in urine. The participants will be in the study for approximately 20 months. They will take the study treatment once daily as a tablet by mouth for 18 months. In the study, 9 visits to the study site are planned. During the study, the study team will: take blood and urine samples do physical examinations check the participants' overall health do pregnancy tests examine heart health using electrocardiogram ECG check vital signs. About 30 days after the participants take their last treatment, the study doctors and their team will check worsening of reported underlying diseases: damage to the blood vessels in the tissue of the retina at the back of the eye, as a result of diabetes mellitus a long-term condition where the heart does not pump blood as well as it should with symptoms such as shortness of breath, tiredness and ankle swelling heart attack (blocked blood flow to the heart) death due to conditions affecting the heart and blood circulation or hospital stay.

This is a phase 3, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in children with stage 3-4 chronic kidney disease (CKD), secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) and vitamin D insufficiency.

The purpose of this study is to access the efficacy and safety of MC2-25 cream and MC2-25 vehicle for treatment of chronic kidney disease associated pruritus (CKD)-aP).

Objective: To study the efficacy and safety of apixaban as stroke prophylaxis in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 5 and atrial fibrillation (AF) with or without dialysis treatment. The study hypothesis is that compared to no anticoagulation, apixaban reduces the incidence of ischemic stroke without causing an unacceptable increase in fatal or intracranial bleeding events. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the risk of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular events, and major bleeding in people with CKD stage 5 and AF treated with apixaban compared to standard of care without anticoagulation. Trial design: Pragmatic Prospective Open Label Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial, phase 3b over 12-72 months. Trial population: 1000-1400 patients at ≈50 sites in Sweden, Finland, Norway, Iceland and Poland Eligibility criteria: Adults ≥18 years with CKD stage 5 (ongoing treatment with any chronic dialysis treatment OR an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)* <20 ml/min/1.73 m2 at least twice 3 months apart of which at least one occasion is <15 ml/min/1.73 m2 due to CKD during the last 12 months) and a diagnosis of chronic, paroxysmal, persistent, or permanent AF or atrial flutter (AFL) with CHA2DS2-VASc score ≥2 for men or ≥3 or more for women as an indication for oral anticoagulation. The exclusion criteria are AF or AFL due to reversible causes, rheumatic mitral stenosis or moderate-to-severe non-rheumatic mitral stenosis at the time of inclusion into the study, a condition other than AF or AFL that requires chronic anticoagulation, contraindications for anticoagulation, active bleeding or serious bleeding within 3 months, planned for surgery within 3 months, and current use of strong inhibitors of both CYP3A4 and P-glycoprotein. Interventions: Randomization 1:1 to treatment with apixaban 2.5 mg twice daily and standard of care, or standard of care and no anticoagulation. Outcome measures: primary efficacy (time to first ischemic stroke); primary safety (the composite of time to first intracranial bleeding or fatal bleeding); secondary efficacy (time to all-cause mortality, time to cardiovascular event or cardiovascular death); secondary safety (time to first major bleeding according to International Society on Thrombosis and Hemostasis (ISTH) criteria)
