Roxadustat's Effect on Heart, Nutrition, and Inflammation in Hemodialysis Patients
Patients with kidney failure who require hemodialysis often suffer from anemia (low red blood cell count), heart and blood vessel problems, and a condition involving poor nutrition, inflammation, and hardening of the arteries (called MIA syndrome). Standard treatments for anemia often involve injections and iron supplements. This study aims to …
Optical Coherence Tomography And NEphropathy: The OCTANE Study
Patients with high blood pressure (hypertension) and chronic kidney disease are at an increased risk of developing heart disease and strokes. Part of this risk is due to changes in the structure and function of the blood vessels throughout the body. It is thought that reducing high blood pressure and …
SEDentary Lifestyle, Mortality and Major Adverse Clinical Outcomes in Chronic KIDney Disease
The goal of this study is to learn if a simple home exercise program can benefit patients with advanced chronic kidney disease. There is also an observational part of the study without an exercise program. The study will record patients' mortality, cardiovascular events, emergency department visits, hospital stays, need for …
Concomitant Renal and Urinary Bladder Allograft Transplantation
The purpose of this study is to establish if concomitant renal and vascularized urinary bladder allograft transplantation is feasible.
Duke APOL1 Research Biorepository
The Duke ApoL1 Nephropathy Biorepository aims to address needs within non-diabetic kidney failure research by utilizing existing and, when necessary, developing new infrastructure to support the consent of patients and the collection of dedicated samples for ApoL1 Nephropathy biorepository. The mutations in ApoL1 gene that are strongly associated with kidney …
Intravenous vs. Oral Hydration to Reduce the Risk of Post-Contrast Acute Kidney Injury After Intravenous Contrast-Enhanced Computed Tomography in Patients With Severe Chronic Kidney Disease
The use of contrast media (CM) poses a risk of post-contrast acute kidney injury (PC-AKI), especially among patients chronic kidney disease (CKD). International guidelines recommend intravenous (IV) hydration with isotonic 0.9% NaCl for three-four hours pre-contrast and four-six hours post-contrast. Recent studies have proven that oral hydration or no hydration …
Evaluation of the Level of Expression of CD45RC on T Lymphocytes as a Predictive Biomarker of Acute Rejection After Renal Transplantation
Chronic renal failure is a major public health problem in industrialized countries, due to its frequency - about 3 million patients in France - and its socio-economic impact. At the end stage of renal failure, renal transplantation is the best treatment, allowing an improvement in patient survival compared to treatment …
Impact of Envarsus XR® on Kidney Biopsy Subclinical Rejection and Blood Immunologic Profile
This will be a single center, prospective, open-label, randomized, controlled trial comparing Envarsus XR® to twice-daily tacrolimus. The targeted population will be patients with end stage renal disease listed for primary solitary kidney transplant. Transplant Surgery is not part of the study.
Safety and Efficacy of Empagliflozin in Hemodialysis
A 12-week, phase II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center study to assess the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of empagliflozin versus placebo among patients initiating hemodialysis (n=60) for the treatment of end-stage kidney disease.
To Compare the Efficacy and Safety of the ATEV With AVF in Female Patients With End-Stage Renal Disease Requiring Hemodialysis
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the number of catheter-free days (CFD) and the rate and severity of any dialysis access-related infections between the ATEV and AVF groups over 12 months in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) needing hemodialysis (HD). Participants will be stratified by location …
