Active clinical trials for "Kidney Diseases"

It is the investigators hypothesis that participants treated with Ferric Citrate (FC) during the non-dialysis CKD stage (4/5) with sufficient duration prior to initiating RRT, will result in improved biochemical control of anemia (Hb, TSAT) and mineral metabolism (P, FGF23) and furthermore, will result in a reduced need for ESA and intravenous iron. The investigators further hypothesize that effective treatment of anemia and mineral metabolism with FC in the pre-dialysis and transition period will result in improved physical functioning, reduced hospitalization and reduced total cost of care when compared to participants receiving contemporaneously provided standard of care therapy.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether alkalinization of urine uric acid by 2 doses of sodium bicarbonate (1950mg) over 24-hours reduces precipitation and crystallization of urine uric acid over in adults with type 1 diabetes.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of selonsertib in participants with impaired hepatic function relative to matched, healthy controls.

The annual report of USRDS shows than Taiwan has the highest prevalence of end-stage-renal-disease globally resulted in high prevalence dialysis rate. The major factors associated with chronic renal failure are age, diabetes, hypertension, chronic glomerulonephritis, metabolic syndrome, smoke, hepatitis C, painkiller and herbals. Chronic kidney disease may lead to various metabolic, cardiovascular and neurological diseases. And these possible prognostic factors associating with the disease progression and ultimately increase the morbidity and mortality. End-stage renal failure is an irreversible course often with clinical manifestations of edema, fatigue, anemia and uremic pruritus. Patients often use Chinese medicine or acupuncture to help them to ease the symptom. The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of combined Western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine daycare model for chronic kidney disease patients. The study approach to investigate whether combination of Western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine daycare model can improve the clinical symptoms and quality of life as well as the laboratory biochemistries data.

Study to evaluate the effect of lapatinib, a breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) inhibitor, on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of JTZ-951 and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of JTZ-951 when administered alone and one hour after the administration of lapatinib.

The primary objective of the study was to compare the effect of sotagliflozin to placebo on total occurrences of cardiovascular (CV) death, hospitalization for heart failure [HHF], and urgent visit for heart failure [HF] in participants with type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular risk factors, and moderate to severely impaired renal function.

Patient with complex comorbidities present a growing challenge for health-care providers, that the current system is poorly designed to handle. Concomitant cardiovascular disease, renal dysfunction and diabetes represent almost half of all patients attending cardiac, kidney and diabetes clinics. Patients with all three of these will be randomized to standard care or to a combined, integrated, person-centered, intensified chronic disease management.

This Phase III, randomized, two-armed, parallel, double-blind, active-controlled clinical trial is designed to compare efficacy and safety of CinnaPoietin® (Beta erythropoietin) and Eprex® (epoetin alpha) on the treatment of anemia in 156 End-Stage Renal Disease hemodialysis patients. 156 patients have been planned to randomize and assign to receive CinnaPoietin® or Eprex® for a 26-week period. Administration dose for patients who are treated with erythropoietin is the similar dose of the previously administered amount (IV or SC without any change). After then, dose adjustment will be made based on patients' response. The primary objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of CinnaPoietin® with Eprex®. The secondary objectives of this study are further comparison and evaluation of efficacy along with safety between CinnaPoietin® and Eprex®.

The purpose of this multi-center study in non-dialysis participants with anemia associated with CKD is to evaluate safety, efficacy and quality of life of daprodustat compared to placebo.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of filgotinib and lanraplenib (previously GS-9876) in adults with lupus membranous nephropathy (LMN).
