Outcome of use of a novel Modulator of Oxidative Phosphorylation on kidney function in patients with Chronic Kidney Disease
This study is open to children aged 2 to 17 with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The purpose of this study is to find out if a medicine called empagliflozin helps children and adolescents with CKD. Other goals of the study are to find out how empagliflozin is tolerated and handled by the body in children and adolescents with CKD. Participants are put into 2 groups randomly, which means by chance. One group takes empagliflozin and the other group takes placebo. Placebo looks like empagliflozin but does not contain any medicine. Participants are twice as likely to be in the empagliflozin group. Participants take empagliflozin or placebo as tablets once a day for 6 months. After 6 months, participants in both groups take empagliflozin as tablets once a day for 1 year. Participants are in the study for a little over a year and a half. During this time, they visit the study site about 15 times and get at least 5 phone or video calls from the site staff. At the visits, the doctors take blood and urine samples from the participants. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
The goal of this crossover clinical trial is to explore the effects of red meat intake on serum and fractional urinary excretion of uremic toxins including trimethylamine N-oxide in people with chronic kidney disease.
This study will evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of single ascending doses (SAD) and multiple ascending doses (MAD) of AZD4248 administered as an oral solution and intravenous (IV) infusion. Additionally, the study investigates the non-interventional feasibility of home measurement of serum creatinine in participants with diabetic kidney disease (DKD).
QRX-3, a new drug that stabilized the kidney renal tubular cell and increase the activity of NAD ( nicotinamide adenine dineuclotide )within the kidney cells; leading to decrease oxidative changes intracellularly, repair of renal tubular injury and restoration of optimized renal function above baseline , will be studied in patients with progressive chronic kidney disease over 12 months . The result of the change in renal function expressed as creatinine GFR (Glomerular filtration decline) over the treatment duration will be compared in the treatment group will be compared to control group without the medication during that same period .
The purpose of this expanded access program is to enable access to R007 (probucol) tablets for the compassionate treatment of adults with mitochondrial disease who also have chronic kidney disease.
30 patients will participate in a prospective randomized clinical trial to test the safety, tolerability and efficacy of transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) for autonomic nervous system (ANS) dysfunction in the chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 3-5 setting.
This study is open to adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD) that is at risk of getting worse. People who have taken a specific type of medication for kidney disease called SGLT2 inhibitor within 1 month before the study or have certain health conditions cannot take part in this study. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called vicadrostat, used in combination with another medicine called empagliflozin, works in people with chronic kidney disease. In this study, participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups. Participants have an equal chance of being assigned to either group. In one group, participants take the 2 study medicines, vicadrostat and empagliflozin, every day for 3 months. In the other group, participants take placebo and empagliflozin for the first 1.5 months, and then they take vicadrostat and empagliflozin together for the next 1.5 months. The study medicines are taken orally as tablets. Placebo tablets look like vicadrostat tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants are in the study for about 4 months. During this time, they visit the study site multiple times. Doctors regularly test kidney function by measuring specific proteins in the blood and urine. The results are compared between the two groups to see whether there are differences between starting the study medicines at the same time or one after the other. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
Chronic kidney disease CKD is estimated to affect nearly over 800 million people globally today (with roughly 125,000 people ending up annually on dialysis in the United States alone. CKD is a contributor to illness and is associated with a diminished quality of life and reduced life expectancy . In this study the investigators are using a novel drug to target improved function of the kidneys.
Gemini is being evaluated in a placebo controlled, single dose, escalating dose study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of intravenous Gemini in adult subjects with stage 3 or 4 chronic kidney disease. Pharmacokinetics will be evaluated and measurements of the effect of Gemini on pharmacodynamic activity will be measured to assess changes in potential pharmacodynamic markers.
