Active clinical trials for "Renal Insufficiency"

This is a multi-center, open-label, PK and safety study of VNRX-5133 and VNRX-5022 when co-administered in male and female subjects with varying levels of renal impairment and healthy normal controls.

Studies have shown that patients with chronic kidney disease in hemodialysis have a low vitamin K status which is believed to be related to an increased risk of atherosclerosis and increased bleeding tendency. The underlying causes of low vitamin K status in hemodialysis patients is unknown. Thus, the aim of this study is to investigate why hemodialysis patients have a low vitamin K status and how to improve it. This study is composed of five trials. Four of them are based on possible hypotheses to the low vitamin K status. The hypotheses are: The daily intake of vitamin K is insufficient. Vitamin K is removed from the blood during dialysis. Absorption in the intestines is impaired. The analysis method (dephosphorylated-uncarboxylated MGP) is influenced by the patients' protein intake. The purpose of the fifth trial is to investigate solutions to improve the vitamin K status of hemodialysis. One is to improve vitamin K status through diet with an increased focus on foods with high concentrations of vitamin K while considering phosphate, potassium and fluid restrictions. The second is to increase vitamin K status through a daily supplement of 360µg Menakinon-7.

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) and systemic exposure of JNJ-63549109 and JNJ-64167896 after a single oral dose of JNJ-64041575 in adult participants with various degrees of renal function (mildly, moderately, or severely impaired, or end-stage renal disease [ESRD] with or without hemodialysis) compared to adult participants with normal renal function.

To assess the long-term safety and effectiveness of Nephoxil® for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in patients with ESRD undergoing dialysis.

This is an open-label, non randomised, single-dose, study in male and female subjects with renal impairment (severe and if required mild & moderate) compared to male and female subjects with normal renal function.

The purpose of research that Mobile Education Application is to evaluate its effects on the progress of chronic renal failure . The sample of the study, which is conducted with a semi-experimental design, consisted of 100 patients (50 interventions and 50 controls) who applied to the nephrology outpatient clinic of a City Hospital affiliated to the Istanbul Provincial Health Directorate. Patient Diagnosis Form, Diet Information of Hemodialysis Patients, Dietary Behavior of Hemodialysis Patients, Cognitive Behavioral Physical Activity scale and mobile education application were used as data collection tools. In the analyses of data; descriptive analyses, parametric and non-parametric tests, generalized linear mixed model and linear regression analysis are used. Firstly, face-to-face training was given to the experimental and control groups. Subsequently, a mobile education application was installed on the phones of the experimental group. The patients in the experimental group were followed for six months with the mobile education application. The content of the mobile education application; education, nutritional contents, measurement values and ask me a question sections. With the reminder system in the application, notifications were sent to the patients 2 days a week. The characteristics of the participants in both groups of the study were similar.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics and safety of a single dose of JT001 in adult subjects with mild and moderate renal impairment compared to healthy mean-matched subjects.The results of this study will guide the clinical recommendation regarding whether or not a dose adjustment may be needed when treating patients with renal impairment.

Since September 1st, 2009, Taiwan has begun to pay attention to the care of patients with organ failure, dementia and the elderly, and brought eight of non-cancer terminal patients into health insurance subsidies to implement the goal of universal palliative care and local aging. Taiwan has entered the aged society since March 2018, become the heavy burden of expenditure in Taiwan because of the health care needs and costs associated with the rapid aging of the population. With advanced medical technology, when facing inevitable death situation, should not use too much medical treatment on terminally ill patients. The waste of medical resources and bring both patients and family members so much pain. In Taiwan, people have misconception about tranquil palliative care. The low rate of home palliative care for non-terminal cancer patients. The purpose of this study is investigating the eight non-cancer terminal caregivers' knowledge, attitudes and service intentions of palliative care, and getting the result by research intervention. In this study, a randomized experimental research design was applied by two-group pre-and post-test. The targets are the eight non-cancer terminal caregivers in a home care institution of a regional teaching hospital located in Yilan. Targets' ID end with odd numbers are in experimental group received shared mode intervention, and even numbers are in control group received home routine care. The experimental group was implementing measures of weekly shared mode intervention in 20 to 60 minutes for six weeks; the control group started to implement measures of home care medical instructions booklet in the third week. The content of the outcome measurement questionnaire includes: basic information of the eight non-cancer terminal caregivers, the palliative care knowledge scale, the palliative care attitude scale, and palliative care service initiation intention scale. Data were analyzed by statistical methods such as descriptive analysis, independent sample t-test, paired-samples t-test, Pearson correlation analysis and one-way ANOVA.

Evaluate the potential effect of hepatic or renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of BAY 1841788 (ODM-201).

This is a Phase 4, multicenter, open label, 1 period study. A total of 16 subjects are planned (8 subjects in Group A and 8 subjects in Group B): The 2 groups will be comparable in terms of age, gender, and body mass index (BMI); the ranges for comparison will be obtained from the pooled demographic data of the renally impaired subjects. The mean age of Group B will be within 5 years of the mean age of Group A, the mean BMI of Group B will be within 18% of the mean BMI of Group A, and the ratio of men to women in Group B will be the same as in Group A.
