Active clinical trials for "Chronic Kidney Disease-Mineral and Bone Disorder"

This study is a 1:1 randomized controlled trial with an intervention for 18 months and a follow up period of 12 months. The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy of recombinant human parathyroid hormone for treatment of adynamic bone disorder in patients with chronic kidney disease.

Treatment of renal osteodystrophy is impeded by the lack of practical and accurate tools to determine underlying bone turnover. Gold standard bone biopsy is not practical in the clinic for the vast majority of kidney disease patients and parathyroid hormone and bone alkaline phosphatase have insufficient accuracy for turnover type to safely and confidently guide treatment of renal osteodystrophy. In the present investigation, the investigators will study a microRNA approach as a novel non-invasive biomarker of turnover for renal osteodystrophy.

PREFERRED-1 is a pilot study for a large randomized, pragmatic, open-label, comparative-effectiveness trial. The pilot will enroll at least 60 patients from at least 6 different hemodialysis centres in Ontario, Canada. Patients on outpatient maintenance hemodialysis at high risk of fragility fracture, will be randomized 1:1 to a denosumab care pathway vs. usual care

Objective: To establish a study cohort and follow up of patients with CKD in our hospital, and evaluate the status of integrated CKD diagnosis and treatment according to guidelines in the real world, as well as the clinical prognosis of patients with different stratification. Methods: By establishing a cohort of 1000 patients with CKD and conducting long-term follow-up, integrated diagnosis and treatment for CKD was performed, namely: Regular monitoring, control of blood pressure, blood glucose, blood lipid, correction of anemia, minerals - bone metabolic abnormalities, malnutrition, acid and alkali, and electrolyte disorder, diet and exercise, such as the guidance of integrated management, non intrusive, observational studies, prospective cohort were analyzed retrospectively, describe the implementation of the integration of diagnosis and treatment, chronic kidney disease (CKD) Stratified analysis and risk factor analysis were performed for cardiovascular disease and other main endpoint events, so as to objectively reflect the status of integrated treatment of CKD and provide data support for continuous quality improvement of CKD diagnosis and treatment and improvement of clinical prognosis of patients.

This is a multi-center cross sectional epidemiological study. The purpose of this study is to investigate the prevalence of Chronic Kidney Disease-Mineral and Bone Disorder (CKD-MBD) in Chinese population.

The aim of the study is to To describe the bone morphology in patients with reduced renal function and high or low parathyroid hormone (PTH) respectively. To investigate if the non-invasive method 18-Fluoride Positron Emission Tomography (18F-PET) can describe the bone turnover and reflect the bone histomorphologic changes To investigate if non-oxidized PTH reflects bone turnover

The goal of this observational study or clinical trial is to learn about the effect of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) on vascular calcification in maintenance hemodialysis patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT). The main question it aims to answer is: the predictive effects of blood NGAL level on the efficacy of palicalcitol in the treatment of SHPT and the adverse reactions of vascular calcification progression. Participants will be treated with palicalcitol, followed up and undergo routine series of Chronic Kidney Disease-Mineral and Bone Disorder associated tests before and after treatment.

This is a Phase 2 Multi-Center Clinical Trial (safety and effectiveness trial) in 60 patients (40 denosumab; 20 placebo) who have had a kidney transplant for 12-months or longer with more than 30% of kidney function. The investigators will test whether denosumab safely improves bone mineral density (BMD) by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and improves bone strength by high resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) in the subset of patients recruited at Columbia University Irving Medical Center. These data will inform the development and execution of a larger trial to test if denosumab prevents fractures in kidney transplant recipients.

This pilot study aims to develop a method for simultaneous whole-body calcium and phosphorus balance and full kinetic modeling of both ions in patients with chronic kidney disease.

This is a prospective cohort study aimed to evaluate change of cardiovascular calcification after parathyroidectomy in patients with end-stage renal disease on dialysis compared with control group on conservative treatment.
