Active clinical trials for "Polycystic Kidney Diseases"

The primary objective of this study Phase 1b was to determine the safety, plasma pharmacokinetics, and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of tesevatinib when administered to participants with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). The primary objective of this study Phase 2a was to evaluate the annualized change in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in participants with ADPKD when treated with tesevatinib.

To establish pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and adverse event (AE) profile of tolvaptan administered as the modified-release (MR) formulation in ADPKD subjects. The goals of this trial are two-fold: To directly compare the immediate release (IR) and MR formulations To determine the dose range and dose regimen for MR (dose finding)

This study's purpose is to evaluate the long-term safety of open-label tolvaptan regimens to determine the maximally-tolerated dose and acquire pilot efficacy data in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD).

The efficacy of interruption of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) on the progression of cystic disease and on the decline in renal function in autosomal dominant kidney disease (ADPKD) will be assessed in two multicenter randomized clinical trials targeting different levels of kidney function: 1) early disease defined by GFR >60 mL/min/1.73 m2 (Study A); and 2) moderately advanced disease defined by GFR 25-60 mL/min/1.73 m2 (Study B; NCT01885559). Participants will be recruited and enrolled, either to Study A or B, over the first three years. Participants enrolled in Study A will be followed for at least 5 years, while those enrolled in Study B will be followed for five-to-eight years, with the average length of follow-up being six and a half years. The two concurrent randomized clinical trials differ by eligibility criteria, interventions and outcomes to be studied.

The purpose of this study is to learn if dietary habits can affect vasopressin secretion in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. Vasopressin increases the growth of kidney cysts and accelerates disease progression. Understanding how to control secretion of this hormone based on dietary habits may help to develop treatments to control this disease. The study will include about 60 patients from Tufts Medical Center. The study will last for 2 weeks. Blood and urine tests will be done 3 times during the study period. Subjects will be randomly assigned (by chance like flipping a coin), to one of two study groups. Group 1 will be given instructions to adjust their diet. This will include adjusting the amount of water, protein, and salt intake. Group 2 will have no adjustment of diet or water. The project has tremendous public health relevance, given the large numbers of people affected by autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease and the substantial impact of the disease on morbidity, mortality, hospitalizations,dialysis or transplant, and societal costs of caring for those patients.

This study will test to see if metformin is safe and if it is tolerated compared to placebo in adult Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) patients with beginning stages of chronic kidney disease. We will also measure its effect on progression of kidney disease as reflected in the kidney size and the kidney function, along with its effect on kidney pain and quality of life.

This is a Phase 2, open-label, parallel-group, multiple dose study designed to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety and tolerability of multiple doses of lixivaptan in Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease subjects with chronic kidney disease (CKD) in stages CKD1, CKD2 or CKD3.

Primary Objective: To study the effect of mild, moderate and severe renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of Venglustat following a single dose. Secondary Objective: To assess the tolerability of Venglustat given as a single dose in subjects with mild, moderate and severe renal impairment in comparison with matched subjects with normal renal function.

This multi-center, open-label Phase 2 trial will study the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of bardoxolone methyl in qualified patients with the following rare chronic kidney diseases (CKD): CKD associated with type 1 diabetes (T1D), IgA nephropathy (IgAN), focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), and autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Patients will be enrolled in disease specific cohorts within the trial, and effectiveness of bardoxolone methyl in treating CKD will be assessed separately by cohort for each rare CKD. All patients in the study will follow the same visit and assessment schedule. Following randomization on Day 1, patients will be scheduled to be assessed during treatment at Weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 12, and by telephone contact on Days 3, 10, 21, 31, 38, and 45. Patients will also be scheduled to be assessed at an in-person follow-up visit at Week 16, four weeks after the end of treatment.

Investigation into the long-term safety and efficacy of OPC-41061 in repeated oral administrations at doses of 15 mg twice daily in patients with ADPKD who completed the preceding dose-finding study (156-04-001).
