TRK-100STP Clinical Study - Chronic Renal Failure (Primary Glomerular Disease/Nephrosclerosis)
Chronic Renal FailureGlomerular Disease1 moreIn Chronic Renal Failure (CRF) patients with primary glomerular disease or nephrosclerosis as the primary disease: To confirm the superiority of TRK-100STP over placebo To determine the recommended therapeutic dose in the 2 doses of TRK-100STP To assess the safety of TRK-100STP
Tacrolimus Versus Cyclophosphamide as Treatment for Lupus Nephritis
SLELupus Nephritis2 moreIn 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).

Evaluation of Efficacy and Safety of Ferric Carboxymaltose (FCM) in Patients With Iron Deficiency...
Iron Deficiency AnemiaImpaired Renal FunctionThe 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.
Prevention of Intradialytic Hypotension in Acute Kidney Injury Patients
Acute Kidney InjuryAcute Renal FailureIntradialytic 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).
Bicarbonate and Lipocalin in Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS) Study
Systemic Inflammatory Response SyndromeOliguria1 moreThe investigators will determine the feasibility, safety and efficacy of intravenous sodium bicarbonate in reducing progression to overt acute renal failure in patients with the systemic inflammatory response syndrome, and low urine output or early acute renal impairment as defined by serum neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL).
Efficacy Study of Everolimus on Renal Function in Heart Transplant Recipients With Established Chronic...
Cardiac TransplantationChronic Renal InsufficiencyAfter transplantation, renal impairment, incidence and progression of atherosclerosis lead to modification of immunosuppressive regimens, as switch, reduction or discontinuation of CNI and/or introduction of everolimus. The risk or benefits of these strategies were not clearly evaluated by specific clinical trials. This study is specifically designed for evaluating the impact of everolimus introduction, with calcineurin dose reduction, at less one year after cardiac transplantation, on renal and clinical outcomes, specially on : Renal function improvement Vasculopathy and major cardiac event reduction Maintenance of immunosuppressive efficacy
