Active clinical trials for "Kidney Diseases"

The primary objective of this study is to determine whether or not cyclosporine (CsA) combined with RTX is more effective than RTX alone in the treatment of idiopathic membranous nephropathy (iMN).

Frailty is very frequent among patients waiting for a kidney transplantation (KT). Frailty and poor fitness powerfully predict mortality, kidney graft survival, and healthcare utilization after KT. Frailty in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) displays a constellation of features that characterize a special population. Intervention is essential to improve quality of life for frail CKD patients, regardless of their age. A pre-transplant intervention including physical therapy, nutritional measures and psychological support scheduled for before the transplant may improve patient retention and compliance, better mitigate the effects of frailty and poor fitness after KT, and improve main outcomes in frail CKD patients. The main objective is to assess effectiveness, feasibility and safety of a prehabilitation program (exercise, nutritional plans, psychological advice) in frail and non-frail KT candidates on clinical and functional outcomes after KT.

This study is to prospectively compare the effectiveness and safety of the two types of arteriovenous access placement (fistula or graft) in older adults with end stage kidney disease and multiple chronic conditions

A prospective, single-arm, multi-center post-market surveillance study of the BD® WavelinQ™ EndoAVF System for the Creation of Arteriovenous (AV) Fistula in Patients Requiring Dialysis.

The study aims to compare between the use of continuous low dose insulin infusion versus co-administration of low dose continuous insulin infusion and early subcutaneous insulin glargine in diabetic ketoacidosis patients with chronic renal impairment. aim to investigate the effect of using the long acting insulin analogue glargine on the resolution time of diabetic ketoacidosis in renal impairment patients who have altered insulin pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics and the rate of adverse effects of this approach

This is a phase II study to investigate the safety, preliminary efficacy and pharmacokinetics of SC0062 capsule in patients with chronic kidney disease (diabetic kidney disease and IgA nephropathy)with albuminuria compared to matching placebo.

The goal of the Phase 3a part of this clinical trial is to determine the optimal dose that will be used in the Phase 3b part of this clinical trial. The goal of the Phase 3b part is to assess the efficacy of SNP-ACTH (1-39) Gel relative to rituximab in patients with primary membranous nephropathy (PMN) at month 24.

This is a prospective, open-label trial to assess the efficacy of melanocortin receptor agonist bremelanotide (BMT) when administered with RAAS inhibition therapy after six months in subjects with Type II diabetic nephropathy. After six months of therapy, all subjects will remain in trial for further assessment and undergo a diagnostic renal biopsy to assess the effect of melanocortin therapy on diabetic histopathology at 12 months.

Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people with chronic kidney disease (CKD), a progressive decrease in the kidneys' ability to work properly, and type 2 diabetes (T2D). In people with T2D, the body does not make enough of a hormone called insulin or does not use the insulin well enough. Insulin's role is to regulate the amount of glucose (sugar) in the blood. Too much blood sugar can cause damage to the kidneys over time. Consequently, CKD can happen as one of the complications of T2D. The study treatment finerenone works by blocking a group of proteins, called mineralocorticoid receptor. An increased stimulation of the mineralocorticoid receptor is known to trigger injury and inflammation in the kidney and is therefore thought to play a role in CKD. Finerenone is already available in several countries for doctors to prescribe to people with CKD and T2D. In addition, it was recently approved in India with a request to specifically gather information on finerenone therapy in Indians. The main purpose of this study is to learn how safe finerenone is in Indian people with CKD and T2D. For this, the researchers will count the number of participants who have: medical problems after taking finerenone abnormal high levels of potassium in the blood (called hyperkalemia). Researcher will also count the number of participants in whom hyperkalemia: leads to stop of finerenone treatment requires treatment to filter wastes and water from the blood leads to a hospital stay. Doctors keep track of all medical problems that happen in studies, even if they do not think the medical problems might be related to the study treatments. In addition, the study team will collect more data about how well finerenone works in Indian people with CKD and T2D under real world setting. Working well means that the treatment can prevent the following from happening: reduced kidney function over a period of at least 4 weeks death from renal problems death due to conditions affecting the heart and blood circulation heart attack (blocked blood flow to the heart) hospital stay due to a condition which occurs when the heart does not pump blood as well as it should changes of the albumin and creatinine levels in urine. The participants will be in the study for approximately 20 months. They will take the study treatment once daily as a tablet by mouth for 18 months. In the study, 9 visits to the study site are planned. During the study, the study team will: take blood and urine samples do physical examinations check the participants' overall health do pregnancy tests examine heart health using electrocardiogram ECG check vital signs. About 30 days after the participants take their last treatment, the study doctors and their team will check worsening of reported underlying diseases: damage to the blood vessels in the tissue of the retina at the back of the eye, as a result of diabetes mellitus a long-term condition where the heart does not pump blood as well as it should with symptoms such as shortness of breath, tiredness and ankle swelling heart attack (blocked blood flow to the heart) death due to conditions affecting the heart and blood circulation or hospital stay.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether traditional Chinese medicine, Gu Shen Juan Yu Formula, as complementary treatment is safe and effective in the treatment of Inherited Proteinuric Kidney Disease.
