9 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
24 diabetics with mild \& moderate renal disease and 12 diabetics without renal disease. One screening, one dosing \& one follow-up visit with Technosphere® Inhalation Powder given at Visit 2 via MedTone® Inhaler and PK testing at 26 designated time points
Current medical therapies are not able to prevent progression of established macroproteinuira (i.e. diabetic nephropathy) to end-stage renal failure in type 1 (insulin dependent) diabetic patients. In this setting, proteinuria is a major risk factor for mortality. Pancreas transplantation, on the contrary, can revert diabetic nephropathy and thereby prevent end-stage chronic renal failure, with theoretically lower risk of death as compared to current medical therapies.The main objective of this study is to assess superiority of isolated pancreas transplantation versus intensive exogenous insulin therapy in type 1 diabetic patients with overt diabetic nephropathy and mildly reduced renal function. The primary endpoint is a composite efficacy/failure end-point including: patient mortality and renal function impairment during 5 years in patients with badly controlled diabetes and nephropathy resisting to up-to-date nephroprotective therapies.Main secondary objectives are safety and efficacy of both regimens, including proteinuria and renal histology evaluation, metabolic control and quality of life, acute and chronic extrarenal complications of diabetes, pancreas survival and all risks related to the transplant procedure (anaesthesia, surgery and immunosuppression side-effects) and to the intensive insulin therapy management.
The purpose of this study is to investigate BMS-986165 in participants with different levels of kidney function.
The purpose of this study is to learn about the side effects (safety) of the study medicine PF-07321332 (nirmatrelvir)/ritonavir for the treatment of mild to moderate COVID-19 infection in adults with severe renal impairment. The study will also look at the amounts of study drug in your blood. There will be 24 participants in this study; 12 of them will have severe renal impairment and not be on hemodialysis and 12 of them will be on hemodialysis. All participants in this study will take PF-07321332 (nirmatrelvir)/ritonavir by mouth for 5 days. During this time, they will have to collect blood samples to measure the study drug levels in their blood. After taking the study drug for 5 days, the participants will have follow-up visits for about another 28 days for a total of about 34 days in the study. The study team will check how each participant is doing during regular visits at the study clinic.
Acute kidney injury (AKI), or worsening kidney function, is a common complication after liver transplantation (20-90% in published studies). Patients who experience AKI after liver transplantation have higher mortality, increased graft loss, longer hospital and intensive care unit stays, and more progression to chronic kidney disease compared with those who do not. In this study, half of the participants will have their body temperature cooled to slightly lower than normal (mild hypothermia) for a portion of the liver transplant operation, while the other half will have their body temperature maintained at normal. The study will evaluate if mild hypothermia protects from AKI during liver transplantation.
It is hypothesized that zirconium silicate is safe and well tolerated and more effective than placebo (alternative hypothesis) in lowering serum potassium levels in subjects with serum potassium between 5 - 6.0 mmol/l versus no difference between zirconium silicate and placebo (null hypothesis). It is hypothesized that zirconium silicate even up to the top dose of 10g three times a day is well tolerated.
A study to compare a conivaptan PK in subjects with mild or moderate kidney function impairment to subjects with normal kidney function after a 48-hour continuous infusion of conivaptan.
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 purpose of this study is to see if 6 months of home-based walking will improve memory, and brain structure and function, compared to health education in older adults that have chronic kidney disease and mild cognitive impairment.
