7 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if AP301 could work in the patients receiving maintenance dialysis with elevated blood phosphate. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does AP301 lower blood phosphate levels? * Does AP301 works on serum calcium level, calcium times phosphate level, and intact parathyroid hormone level? * What discomfort or medical problem do the patients have when taking AP301? * Does AP301 improve quality of life in Chinese patients? The researchers will compare AP301 to an ineffective comparator (a look-alike substance that contains low dose AP301) to see if AP301 works to treat elevated blood phosphate. In the study, the patients will experience the following stages in a chronicle order: * Stop all using blood phosphate-lowering drugs, * Take AP301 or the comparator three times a day for 8 weeks, * Take AP301 three times a day for 24 weeks, and * Take AP301 or the comparator three times a day for 3 weeks. In the first 32 weeks, the dose of AP301 will be adjusted upwards or downwards based on the patient's blood phosphate level and the study doctor's judgment. If the participant has a blood phosphate level above or below a certain level, they may receive additional treatment to lower the blood phosphate level.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether roxadustat is safe and effective in the treatment of anemia in participants with chronic kidney disease and not on dialysis.
The objective of this study was to observe the safety of paricalcitol utilization in pediatric participants (ages 0 to 16 years old) being treated for secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT). Participants were to be followed for a minimum of 3 months and up to approximately 36 months to monitor the incidence of hypercalcemia (high calcium levels in blood).
The purpose of this study is to compare two different dosing methods of epoetin alfa and their effectiveness in maintaining hemoglobin levels between 10.0 to 11.0 g/dL in in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) receiving hemodialysis.
Individuals with kidney failure receiving maintenance hemodialysis (HD) have high mortality rates, driven largely by cardiovascular causes. Volume-related factors are critical, modifiable contributors to cardiovascular complications. Reversing volume overload has been shown to improve blood pressure and cardiac remodeling. Use of loop diuretics may represent a pragmatic, low-cost, and low-burden strategy to improve outcomes in people receiving HD. Lack of data on optimal furosemide dosing, safety, and acceptability are barriers to expanded use. This study investigates whether oral furosemide is safe and effective at increasing urine volume in HD patients.
The main objective of this research study was to compare the following outcomes between patients with a Hemodialysis Reliable Outflow (HeRO) Graft and patients with a cuffed catheter for dialysis access over one year: quality of life and incidence of bacteremia, vascular interventions, hospitalizations, and death.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of Roxadustat dosing regimens among chronic dialysis participants converted from ESA therapy or who are ESA-naïve.
