The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of molidustat in peritoneal dialysis subjects with renal anemia

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of MT-6548 in peritoneal dialysis subjects with anemia associated with chronic kidney disease

Anticalin® proteins are engineered human proteins that are able to bind specific target molecules. The Anticalin PRS-080#022-DP to be investigated in this study is directed against hepcidin and is intended for the treatment of anemia of chronic disease. This pilot Phase 2a study shall investigate the safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of repeated administrations of PRS-080#022-DP in anemic stage 5 chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients undergoing hemodialysis.

This study aims to demonstrate the possible benefit of a treatment based on double diuretic in patients with chronic kidney disease and severely impaired glomerular filtration rate. This is based on previous observations where the investigators found that volume overload is a frequent condition within this population and is strongly linked to an increase in morbidity and mortality. The investigators consider that this therapy could be beneficial given that most of these patients are treated with loop diuretics, however, with the passage of time, adaptive changes in the distal nephron occur that promote a decrease in the treatment effect. In this sense, thiazide diuretics at appropriate doses could 'break' the resistance, since their mechanism of action antagonizes the resistance mechanism. Unfortunately, to this day, this treatment has not been fully evaluated. Particularly in this type of population. The investigators developed a study proposed as a double blind randomized clinical trial, where the population will be divided into two groups. A group will be given the standard treatment based on loop diuretic (bumetanide), while the other group will receive the intervention (bumetanide plus chlorthalidone). After a 30-day follow-up period, the results will be measured. With respect to the effectiveness of the treatment, the decrease in volume overload by bioimpedance will be measured. While the occurrence of adverse effects during the same monitoring period will be observed.

Study design: Phase II study, randomized, double-blind, unicentric, two-arm, placebo-controlled clinical trial. Methods and participants: Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease G2-G5 with proteinuria without renal replacement therapy, who come to the clinic of renal health clinic of the Fray Antonio Alcalde civil hospital. As criteria for non-inclusion, need for dialysis, primary hypothyroidism or pre-existing thyroid disease, ischemic heart disease in a period less than 6 months, arrhythmia, pregnancy, use of drugs that interact with synthesis of thyroid hormones, do not accept informed consent, thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) <2.5 uiml / L or TSH> 10 uiml / L.

The Modification of Diet in Renal Disease Trial is a multicenter randomized clinical trial for men and women aged 18-70 years with chronic renal disease who are not on dialysis and who have not had a kidney transplant. Study participants are randomized in a 2 × 2 factorial design to diets containing different amounts of protein and phosphorus and to two levels of blood pressure control. The prescribed modifications differ depending on the level of a patient's kidney function. The primary outcome variable to compare diet or blood pressure groups is each patient's slope (or the change) in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) with time.

For hemodialysis subjects currently receiving ESAs with anemia associated with chronic kidney disease, demonstrate non-inferiority of MT-6548 compared to darbepoetin alfa using Hb value and evaluate long-term safety of MT-6548.

Hemodialysis is a therapy that filters waste, removes extra fluid and balances electrolytes. In hemodialysis, blood is removed from the body and filtered through a man-made membrane called a dialyzer, and then the filtered blood is returned to the body. Hemodialysis is associated with injury to the heart muscle called myocardial stunning. This may occur for many reasons, including removal of fluid during dialysis or low blood pressure. Initial ischemia and subsequent white blood cell infiltration into the injured myocardium play a critical role in the degree of myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury. In this study an additional man made membrane (selective cytopheretic device) and tubing will be added to the dialysis circuit. The device shifts the circulating white blood cells pool to a less inflammatory phenotype. Researchers believe the selective cytopheretic device will alter the phenotype of circulating white blood cells which play a role in myocardial stunning. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether the selective cytopheretic device will reduce myocardial stunning events in hemodialysis patients. It will also report the rate of adverse events.

Sevelamer hydrochloride (SE) can increase intestinal calcium absorption in contrast to lanthanum carbonate (LA). Study compared effect of LA and SE on serum and urine phosphate and calcium, and hormones regulating mineral-bone metabolism.

This study was conducted to assess the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile, safety, and tolerability in participants with Stage 3 and 4 Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) following a single oral dose of Vadadustat.
