NCT00598442
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of peginesatide for the treatment of anemia in participants with chronic kidney disease, who are not on dialysis and not on erythropoiesis stimulating agent (ESA) treatment.
NCT00597753
The purpose of the study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of peginesatide in the maintenance treatment of anemia in participants on dialysis.
NCT00014144
RATIONALE: Biological therapies such as ZD 1839 may interfere with the growth of the tumor cells and slow the growth of cancer of the urinary tract. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of ZD 1839 in treating patients who have advanced cancer of the urinary tract.
NCT00033904
Determine whether patients receiving adjuvant HSPPC-96 treatment after surgically resected, locally advanced renal cell carcinoma have improved recurrence-free survival as compared to subjects with no adjuvant treatment.
NCT00977080
Evaluates the effectiveness of on-label Paricalcitol versus Cinacalcet with Low-Dose Vitamin D.
NCT00863707
This study is intended to assess the safety and tolerance of regadenoson in subjects with renal impairment.
NCT00298168
Selectins have been implicated in the pathogenesis of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced kidney injury and resultant delayed graft function (DGF). PSGL-1 is a ligand for P-, E-, and L-selectin. It has been reported that YSPSL (rPSGL-Ig) blocks P-selectin and, to a lesser degree, E- and L-selectin. Both sPSGL-1 and YSPSL (rPSGL-Ig) have been shown in animal models to reduce both cytokines and tissue damage associated with ischemia reperfusion and to improve renal function post-transplant. Therefore, the current phase I/II clinical study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of YSPSL (rPSGL-Ig) in preventing DGF in patients undergoing cadaveric kidney transplants and to determine a dose for future pivotal studies.
NCT00628680
The purpose of this study is to determine if AAT-023 (Zuragen) solution is superior to Heparin in preventing Catheter Related Blood Stream Infections for End Stage Renal Disease patients.
NCT00089648
The purpose of this study is to test whether sunitinib (SU011248) has activity and is safe in patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) who have failed prior therapy with bevacizumab (Avastin) -based treatment.
NCT02015780
To evaluate the efficacy of fasiglifam 50 mg once daily compared to placebo on glycemic control as measured by glycosilated haemoglobin (HbA1c) over a 16-week treatment period in participants with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 4 or 5 on dialysis.
NCT02194114
The primary purpose of this study is to assess dietary protein requirements in clinically stable maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. It is hypothesized that the average dietary protein intake (DPI) that will maintain nitrogen balance is 1.00 g protein/kg/day, but that a safe intake that maintains balance in almost all MHD patients is about 1.25g protein/kg/day.
NCT00268957
Approximately 207 patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on hemodialysis will be entered into this study at approximately 26 centers in the United States. This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sevelamer carbonate powder dosed once-a-day (QD) with the largest meal compared to sevelamer hydrochloride tablets dosed three-times-per-day (TID) with meals. The total length of participation is approximately 24 weeks.
NCT00440648
This is a double-blind, randomized, cross-over study conducted at centers within the United States. The study consists of five periods: an up to two-week Screening Period, a 5-week Run-In Period, two eight-week study treatment periods and a two-week Washout Period. Patients are assigned randomly (1:1) to one of two treatment sequences: sevelamer carbonate for eight weeks followed by sevelamer hydrochloride for eight weeks or sevelamer hydrochloride for eight weeks followed by sevelamer carbonate for eight weeks
NCT00005958
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Colony-stimulating factors such as filgrastim may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood and may help a person's immune system recover from the side effects of chemotherapy. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy with gemcitabine and docetaxel plus filgrastim in treating patients who have locally recurrent or advanced urothelium cancer.
NCT00716404
This is a prospective, observational, multi-center study with consecutive enrollment. Up to 1,000 patients will be enrolled. The objective of this post-marketing surveillance study is to collect clinical usage patterns of the Benephit Infusion Systems. As a result, FlowMedica will be able to: 1. Better understand and quantify usage patterns including patient characteristics, adjunctive procedures, and infusion agents. 2. Collect user-interface information and overall customer satisfaction. 3. Monitor post-marketing device performance.
NCT00695097
The aim of the study is to find out if Rituximab, which is an antibody against specific white cells involved in rejection, when combined with standard anti-rejection treatment can more effectively reverse the rejection process. Our hypothesis is that with acute rejection there is activation of B cells and the subsequent development of anti-donor antibodies that ultimately lead to graft loss. More effective therapy targeted at B cells may abort the development of anti-HLA antibodies, prevent renal injury and have a favorable effect on long-term graft outcome.
NCT00486538
This study is designed to determine the clinical efficacy and toxicity of ABT 869 in the treatment of subjects with advanced renal cell carcinoma who have previously received treatment with sunitinib.
