Active clinical trials for "Renal Insufficiency, Chronic"

Fasting mimetic diet (FMD) showed positive effects on cardiovascular risks. Purpose of the trial is to evaluate FMD effects on patients affected by chronic kidney disease (CKD), through the stimulation of kidney stem cells and improving cardiovascular and metabolic status. From April 2018, the investigators enrolled 13 patients (7 male) with an history of primary glomerulonephritis (GMN) and an eGFR between 60 ml/min and 30 ml/min. Exclusion criteria are: age <18 y.o., age> 65 y.o., secondary GMN, severe heart failure (NYHA IV),ongoing infectious diseases, ongoing neoplasia, hepatic diseases, COPD, inflammatory bowel disease, history of stroke, history of acute coronary disease less than 3 months, pregnancy, refuse informed consent.

A Phase 2b, study to measure the effect of Cotadutide at different doses versus placebo or comparator (semaglutide) in participants who have Chronic Kidney Disease with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

This research project aims to test if sulforaphane, administered as broccoli sprout extract (BSE) can ameliorate glucose control in adult patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and DM 2 with GFR > 15 < 45 ml/min/1.73 m2. The glucose control will be evaluated by the oral glucose tolerance test. Moreover, as a secondary aim, we will investigate the role of sulforaphane in improving other signs of metabolic derangements present in this group of patients, including oxidate stress, proteinuria, inflammation and a decrease in the production of uremic toxins from the gut microbiota. This a multicentre randomized double-blinded controlled trial including 100 adult patients with CKD and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) between 15 and 29 ml/min/1.73m2, DM type 2, age > 18 years old. Patients will be randomized into BSE group or Placebo group. Both groups will be followed for 20 weeks: The first 12 weeks patients will receive the BSE or Placebo and, the next 8 weeks, both groups will be followed with no intervention to observe the changes in the primary and secondary outcomes. Patients randomized to BSE Group will receive 50 µmmol/day of sulforaphane administered as BSE (Lantmännen®) from week 0 to week 4. If no side-effects are reported, the sulforaphane dose will increase to 100 µmmol/day from week 5 to week 8 and in the absence of side-effects, the dose will increase to 150 µmmol/day from week 9 to week 12. Blood and urine samples and OGTT (in non-insulin dependent patients) will be performed at week 0, 12 and 20. On week 4 and 8 blood drawn for partial exam will be performed. The BSE and the placebo (maltodextrin sprayed with copper-chlorophyllin) will be administered as powder provided in a double-blind manner as dry mixtures in sealed portion size bags of similar shape and size. Randomization will be done using a computer-based block randomization algorithm. Comparisons between the primary and secondary studied variables will be done with two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with repeated measures for normally distributed variables. Variables that can interfere with the glycemic control, such as changes in the dosage of hypoglicemiants agents and insulin during the intervention will be controlled in the analysis. Those non-normally distributed will be log transformed aiming to normalize the distribution. All test will consider a P<0.05 for statistical significance. The software Stata will be used for the statistical analysis.

This study is open to adults with chronic kidney disease. People with and without type 2 diabetes can take part in this study. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 690517 improves kidney function in people with chronic kidney disease when taken alone or in combination with a medicine called empagliflozin. In the first part of the study, participants take empagliflozin or placebo as tablets every day for 2 months. Placebo tablets look like empagliflozin tablets but do not contain any medicine. In the second part, participants are divided into several groups. Depending on the group, the participants then additionally take different doses of BI 690517 or placebo as tablets for 3.5 months. In this case, placebo tablets look like BI 690517 tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants are in the study for about 6 months. During this time, they visit the study site about 12 times. Where possible, about 4 of the 12 visits can be done at the participant's home instead of the study site. The trial staff may also contact the participants by phone or video call. Participants collect urine samples at home. These samples are then analysed to assess kidney function. At the end of the trial the results are compared between the different groups. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.

This is a pilot phase II study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of AND017 in NDD-CKD patients

This long-term follow-up study is a 5-year long-term follow-up study to evaluate long-term safety in Cellgram-CKD subjects. (refer to ClinicalTrials.gov.Identifier: NCT05042206).

This study will be a randomised, open-label, 3-period, 3-treatment, single-dose, crossover study in healthy subjects The study will be performed at a single study centre in the United Kingdom.

The purpose of the study is to assess efficacy, safety and tolerability of treatment with zibotentan and dapagliflozin in combination and dapagliflozin 10 mg as monotherapy in participants with chronic kidney disease (CKD) with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 20 mL/min/1.73 m^2, and urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR) ≥ 150 mg/g and ≤ 5000 mg/g.

Aim: By application of wearable devices and health management platform to build self-management model in CKD patients and analyze the cost of healthcare. Material and Methods: The investigators plan to recruit 60 CKD patients as trial subjects. The intervention group is composed of 30 participants, and the control group 30 participants. The intervention group received intervention with wearable devices and health management platform for 90 days. Patients record diet diary by a smartphone application, and their exercise-related data are collected by wearable devices. Then, all the collected information will be upload to health management platform. The investigators also create a LINE group to encourage exercise in the experimental group. The investigators compare the scores of self-management sheet and physical and laboratory examinations before and after the intervention. The investigators also analyze the cost of healthcare within 180 days.

This is a randomized pilot study to test the feasibility and acceptability of a tool to promote discussion about conservative kidney management (CKM) among older patients with advanced CKD and their providers.
