Active clinical trials for "Kidney Diseases"

This study is being conducted to determine safety and effectiveness of transplanting kidneys from Hepatitis C-positive donors into Hepatitis C-negative patients on the kidney transplant waitlist, who will then be treated with the appropriate direct-acting antiviral (DAA) after the single kidney transplantation.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ASP1517 in hemodialysis patients with renal anemia whose treatment is converted from an Erythropoieses Stimulating Agent formulation.

Hypertension is a leading risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD) globally, accounting for 25-35% of the population-attributable fraction. Sodium (salt) intake is a key determinant of blood pressure, and reducing sodium intake has emerged as an important target for population-based interventions to prevent CVD. However, there is considerable uncertainty about the optimal level of sodium intake that is associated with lowest CV risk, and whether optimal levels differ for different populations and individuals. International and national guidelines recommend low sodium intake (<2.3g/day, or lower) in all persons, and advocate a population-wide approach to reducing sodium. Most of the world's population (~95%) consume between 3 and 6g/day of sodium (mean intake 4.0g/day), which means that most people will require a major change to their diet, to achieve the guideline target (<2g/day). While there is convincing evidence that high sodium intake (>5g/day) is associated with an increased risk of CVD, compared to low or moderate intake, the evidence that low sodium intake (<2.0g/day) is associated with a lower risk of CVD than moderate intake (2.0-5g/day) is inconsistent and inconclusive. The investigators plan to conduct a Phase IIb clinical trial to evaluate the role of low sodium intake (versus moderate) on cardiovascular biomarkers.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of sequential ascending doses of JTZ-951 administered for 15 days in anemic subjects with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) receiving hemodialysis.

If primary health-care officers and Villages Health Volunteers (VHVs) be trained to render proper CKD care, it is interesting if their intimate relationship and commitment to their responsible village households will result in better outcomes when compared with the conventional care model as mention above. In this project, we plan to compare the effectiveness of a conventional care program against an integrated multidisciplinary CKD care program provided by nephrologists in conjunction with well-trained paramedical personnel and VHVs on CKD progression.

This study was designed to provide confirmation of safety of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) therapy in chronic kidney disease (CKD).

The purpose of this study is to determine whether fostamatinib is safe and effective in the treatment of IgA Nephropathy

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of olive oil and flaxseed oil in the treatment of constipation of patients undergoing hemodialysis.

This is a multicenter, single-arm, extension study to characterize the long-term safety and tolerability of etelcalcetide in the treatment of Secondary Hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in adults with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) on hemodialysis.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate pharmacodynamics, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of MT-3995 in Type II Diabetic Nephropathy Subjects with Albuminuria
