The Effect of Magnesium Oxide on Plasma Phosphate in Hemodialysis Patients
HyperphosphatemiaHyperphosphatemia is a common problem in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Different chelators for control of Hyperphosphatemia are used. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of magnesium oxide (Mg Oxide) on the control of serum phosphorus (P) level and evaluation of its side effects in hemodialysis patients.
Post-Marketing Surveillance on Long-Term Drug Use of Kiklin (Bixalomer)® Capsules in Patients With...
Chronic Renal FailureTo evaluate the safety and efficacy of long-term use of Kiklin® Capsules in actual clinical settings.
Phosphate Microvascular Study
End Stage Renal DiseaseHyperphosphatemiaElevated phosphate concentrations in the blood have been associated with multiple negative health outcomes in patients with chronic kidney disease as well as in the general population. These negative outcomes include an increased risk of vascular complications like heart attack and stroke. While complications like heart attack and stroke reflect obstructive disease in large blood vessels, recent evidence suggests that elevated phosphate concentrations may first lead to disease in small blood vessels. This single site clinical trial will randomize 20 veterans with end stage renal disease on hemodialysis to either a phosphate binder or placebo and evaluated for changes in their microvascular function using laser-Doppler flowmtery and nail-fold capillaroscopy.
Fosrenol Post-marketing Surveillance for Continuous Cyclic Peritoneal Dialysis in Japan
HyperphosphatemiaThis study is a regulatory post marketing surveillance in Japan, and it is a local prospective and observational study of patients in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) who have received Fosrenol for hyperphosphatemia. The objective of this study is to assess safety and efficacy of using Fosrenol in clinical practice. This study is also all case investigation of which the enrollment period is one year, and all patients in CAPD who received Fosrenol for hyperphosphatemia will be recruited and followed one year.
Trial of a New Formulation of KRX-0502 (Ferric Citrate) in Patients With End-Stage Renal Disease...
HyperphosphatemiaEnd-stage Renal Disease1 moreThe objective of this study is to see if KRX-0502 (ferric citrate) is safe and effective as a dietary phosphate binder in controlling and managing serum phosphorus levels in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD).
Long-term Effect of Lanthanum Carbonate on Bone
HyperphosphatemiaPatients enrolled in a previous study (SPD405-309), who were exposed to lanthanum carbonate (Fosrenol), were eligible to continue on any prescribed treatment for hyperphosphatemia, including lanthanum carbonate (Fosrenol), for an additional 5 years. Patients were being observed for any bone adverse events or other serious adverse events, as well as the collection of mortality data.
Rate of Termination of Premixed Parenteral Nutrition (PN) in Surgical Patients Secondary to High...
HyperphosphatemiaHyperkalemia2 moreIntroduction: Various commercial premixed parenteral nutrition (PN) solutions have been introduced to clinical practice in 3-compartment large volume bags. Olimel N9E is the formulary premixed PN formula at King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre (KFSH & RC). The commercial premixed PN was associated with a significant cost reduction compared to the compounded PN, with lower incidence of infectious complications, compared to the compounded PN formula. Electrolyte irregularities are commonly encountered with PN use. Patients who develop high serum potassium, magnesium or phosphate levels while receiving premixed PN are shifted to a compounded PN with lower electrolyte content. This study aims to describe the incidence of shifting of premixed PN to a compounded PN secondary to high serum electrolytes in surgical patients receiving commercial premixed PN. Methods: This is a prospective, cohort, study, to be conducted at KFSH & RC, Riyadh. This study is proposed to commence after obtaining the approval of the Research Ethical Committee at KFSH & RC. Patients enrolment will start after the approval at KFSH & RC, by data collection phase, that might extend for a suspected 6-month until achieving the target sample size of 55 patients. The analysis phase will follow and elapse for 2 months. This is followed by 2 months to get the initial abstract. All patients will have their potassium, magnesium, calcium and phosphorus levels assessed daily in the morning for the first 7 days of PN initiation. After the first week of PN support, according to the routine laboratories, electrolytes will be assessed at a minimum of three times a week thereafter while on PN. There will be no extra laboratory work obtained for the study purpose. The incidence of shifting from premixed PN to compounded PN will be assessed and reported. A description of the characteristics of patients who develop high serum level of electrolytes will be undertaken using regression analysis.
Post Authorisation Safety Study of Renvela® in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients Not on Dialysis With...
HyperphosphataemiaChronic Kidney DiseaseThe primary objective of this study is to assess in a post-approval clinical setting the safety profile of sevelamer carbonate (Renvela®) tablets and powder in adult hyperphosphataemic chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients not on dialysis with serum phosphorus ≥1.78 mmol/L. Patients will be treated in accordance with the Renvela® Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC) and followed according to the investigator's standard clinical practice management. Each patient will be followed up for 12 months or up to the time they start dialysis, whichever occurs first.
Non-interventional Study to Investigate the Short and Long Term Real-life Safety, Effectiveness,...
HyperphosphatemiaAn oral highly potent P binder Velphoro is a mixture of polynuclear iron(III) oxyhydroxide, sucrose, and starches. It was well tolerated in the clinical development program. The approved indication in the European Union (EU) is to control serums phosphorus (sP) levels in adult CKD (Chronic kidney disease) patients on HD (Haemodialysis) or PD (Peritoneal dialysis). It is of major interest to observe the drug in daily use outside of controlled trial settings. The Marketing Authorisation Holder wishes to obtain further systematic data within a non-interventional study to investigate short and long-term safety. Effectiveness and Treatment adherence during real-life use will be evaluated.
