Active clinical trials for "Renal Insufficiency, Chronic"

A phase 1, open-label safety, tolerability and early efficacy study of a Renal Autologous Cell Therapy (REACT) in patients with Chronic Kidney Disease from Congenital Anomalies of the Kidney and Urinary Tract (CAKUT) (REGEN-004)

The objective of this study will be to evaluate the effect of Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy (aPDT) in the Nasal Decolonization of Dialytic Chronic Renal Patients, Staphylococcus Aureus (S.aureus) Carriers This is a 3-months follow-up, randomized, single-blind, prospective controlled trial, single-center and will happen in 02 phases: Phase 1 - Epidemiological Evaluation - A researcher will invite the research participants who are undergoing treatment at the Hemodialysis Service of Clinical Hospital and explain its contents. After reading and signing the informed consent, this same researcher (calibrated for the experiment) will perform nasal secretion microbiological collections to identify patients colonized by S.aureus in the anterior nostril (nasal carrier) - baseline T0 and the application of the questionnaire that identifies possible factors that may be considered as risk for colonization and possible development of diseases related to S. aureus. In the laboratory of Microbiology, the strains will be identified and the colonized patients will be invited to continue the study (Phase 2). Non-carrier patients will only be counseled with infection prevention care. Phase 2 - Parallel clinical trial with two intervention groups (aPDT or Mupirocin) - Patients with nasal aureus (thirty-four colonized patients aged over 18 years) will be treated with aPDT (experimental group) or mupirocin (control group). A trained researcher will collect new aliquots of nasal discharge after completion of nostril treatment (T1) to check for decolonization by culture. A new collection will be performed at 1 (T2) and 3 (T3) months after treatment to assess recolonization. It was evaluated intervention safety (photodynamic therapy) through a directed and open questionnaire about adverse effects.

A phase 3, multicenter, open-label, randomized, active-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Desidustat Tablet versus Epoetin alfa Injection for the treatment of anemia in patients with CKD on dialysis. (DREAM-D)

The study aims to understand why dental infections in end-stage kidney patients results in poor outcomes for kidney functions and eventually transplant. Further, if an active dental treatment is provided to such patients, does it helps improve the kidney functional parameters, and eventually results in better survival of kidney transplant. In addition, the molecular markers that result in altered interactions between the blood cells and bacteria in these patients will be identified and compared with those found in a healthy subjects, or subjects with gum disease but no kidney disease. Besides, if any of the makers of altered interactions found in the blood can be found to be altered in the saliva samples from the patients with gum disease (periodontitis), and kidney disease, it will help to develop a non-invasive oral risk test for predicting outcomes of kidney transplant survival.

The proposed study will investigate the effects of etelcalcetide on the bone and blood-vessel health in patients with CKD-MBD. The investigators will test if etelcalcetide makes bone and blood-vessels healthier. The study hypotheses are that are that etelcalcetide keeps bones strong and lowers the risk of calcium deposits in blood vessels. In Aim 1, the investigators will test if 9-months of treatment with etelcalcetide improves bone strength in twenty ESKD patients with hyperparathyroidism (HPT) by bone biopsy. In Aim 2, the investigators will test if 9-months of treatment with etelcalcetide decreases serum propensity to calcify blood vessels. The potential significance of this study is to provide first-time data on the ability of etelcalcetide to protect bone and blood-vessel health in patients with ESKD.

To explore the clinical effect of Shenkang Decoction in chronic renal failure (CRF) patients with hemodialysis (HD).

Effects of functional inspiratory muscle training by telerehabilitation on respiratory and peripheral functions, functional capacity, diaphragm thickness and mobility, posture, quality of life, cognitive function, fatigue, physical activity, endothelial function and aortic stiffness in patients with chronic kidney disease will be investigated.

The purpose of this study is to test the safety of the compound sulforaphane that boosts the activity of antioxidant genes in the body to combat oxidative stress. Oxidative stress has been shown experimentally to play a role in kidney disease. This drug has been tested in patients with breast cancer who have normal kidney function, but has never been tested in patients with kidney disease. In this study, the investigators will establish a safe dose for patients with chronic kidney disease based on blood levels achieved in patients with normal kidney function.

CLBS201 will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and therapeutic effect in subjects with CKD and T2DM.

The purpose of this clinical research study is to establish the dose of verinurad combined with allopurinol 300 mg once daily that will elicit the desired response; ie, reduction in urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR) at 6 months.
