Active clinical trials for "Renal Insufficiency"

Renal insufficiency is a priority disease in the health system, which may require renal replacement therapy based on kidney transplantation, which is considered as therapy of choice. During the procedure of kidney transplantation, the body is subjected to ischemia-reperfusion damage that generates late complications related to graft function. Recently the anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects of statins have been emphasized, which could be beneficial in kidney transplantation.

A Phase Ib, Open-Label, Single Arm Study to Assess the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Impact on Humoral Sensitization of SANGUINATE Infusion in Patients with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD).

The aim of this randomized controlled study is to shed light on the analgesic properties and side-effect profile of an opiod-based regimen as opposed to an Ibuprofene based regimen.

The purpose of this protocol is to evaluate the safety of a selective cytopheretic device (SCD) in patients that are on continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) for acute renal failure (ARF).

The primary objective of this study is to examine the efficacy and safety (cardiovascular) of an investigational intravenous (IV) iron, ferric carboxymaltose (FCM), compared to IV iron sucrose (Venofer) in subjects who have iron deficiency anemia (IDA) and impaired renal function.

Intradialytic hypotension (IH) is a major complication during acute hemodialysis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of dialysate temperature (DT) reduction with Na and ultrafiltration (UF) profiling on hemodynamics of critically ill acute kidney injury (AKI) patients submitted to sustained low-efficiency dialysis (SLED).

The purpose of the study is to compare the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and tolerability of betrixaban in patients with mild, moderate, and severe renal impairment to healthy volunteers.

The investigators raised the hypothesis that exercise training would be associated with improvement in exercise tolerance and VO2 kinetics in hemodialysis patients.

In this comparative open-label cohort study, the investigators compared the efficacy and safety of tacrolimus (TAC)and cyclophosphamide (CYC) in the treatment of diffuse proliferative and membranous lupus nephritis with severe renal disease. Treatment of lupus nephritis (LN) with cyclophosphamide is effective, but retain a certain proportion of renal function exacerbations. Tacrolimus may be a suitable substitute treatment for CYC. Methods: Forty patients with diffuse proliferative or membranous were recruited for this trial, 45% of them had lower Ccr (<60mL/min/1.73m2), 10% had increased serum creatinine (>180µmol/L) and 67.5% had nephritic proteinuria (>3.5g/day). The investigators compared the efficacy and adverse effects of TAC (0.04-0.08 mg/kg/d) and prednisone for 12 months (TAC group) with pulse cyclophosphamide (750mg/m2 per month for six months) and prednisone followed by azathioprine (50mg/day）for 6 months (CYC group).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential of erythropoietin in reducing risk and degree of acute kidney injury after cardiac surgery.
