Active clinical trials for "Renal Insufficiency"

The objective of this study is to characterize the hormonal and inflammatory responses to hemodialysis, and to determine the effect of a meal versus fast on the metabolic changes in the post-dialytic phase.

The present study is being conducted to evaluate whether or not severe renal impairment has an effect on crizotinib Pharmacokinetics.

The objective of this study is to assess and compare the pharmacokinetic properties of YM178 in normal subjects and those with mild, moderate and severe renal impairment.

The primary objective of this study is to compare the pharmacokinetic profiles of colchicine and its primary metabolites in plasma and urine following a single 0.6 mg oral dose of colchicine in healthy adults with normal renal function, in patients with mild, moderate or severe renal impairment, and in patients with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis. An additional objective of this study is to study the clearance of colchicine and its metabolites by hemodialysis. Secondary objectives include evaluation of the safety and tolerability of colchicine in the study population.

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the anabolic potentials of insulin may be used to reverse the catabolic effects of hemodialysis in non-diabetic patients with end-stage renal failure.

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.

Tacrolimus (Prograf) belongs to a class of medications known as the calcineurin inhibitors. It is a maintenance drug that is used to prevent rejection in kidney, liver, and heart transplant recipients. Calcineurin inhibitors display high pharmacokinetic (the body's effects on a drug) variability and necessitate use of blood tests to ensure that adequate drug levels are present to maintain effectiveness and safety. Early after transplant or at times when tacrolimus cannot be taken by mouth, alternative routes of administration are sought. Although an intravenous (through the vein) product is available, it can be toxic to the kidneys and has been associated with allergic reactions. Drug delivery via the oral mucosa is an alternative method of systemic drug administration which offers an alternative when oral administration is impractical (gastrointestinal dysmotility, reduced drug absorption, intestinal failure, difficulty in swallowing, or in those with nausea or vomiting). Administration of tacrolimus by the sublingual route may allow for direct entry into the systemic circulation and bypasses problems associated with drug absorption and breakdown that take place in the small intestine.

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of a single oral dose of PF-04991532 in subjects with renal impairment.

This study will compare the pharmacokinetics of LCQ908 in subjects with varying degrees of renal impairment to healthy subjects

Limiting brain death-induced organ injury through a systemic anti- inflammatory medical management should allow for improvement in the quality of transplanted organs, and as a result, clinical improvement in post-transplant outcomes represented by a decrease in the incidence of delayed graft function (DGF) after transplantation. The specific aim is to evaluate the effect of C1INH (CINRYZE) as a donor pre-treatment strategy to decrease systemic inflammation and decrease the incidence of DGF in Expanded Criteria Donors (ECD), currently identified as donors with Kidney Donor Profile Index (KDPI) greater than or equal to 60%.
