NCT06944275
Hantaviruses are globally distributed viruses that cause haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) in Europe, a disease characterised by acute kidney failure and, in some cases, significant bleeding complications. The mechanisms underlying clotting abnormalities in HFRS remain poorly understood. This study aims to investigate the pathological mechanisms of clotting dysfunction in hospitalised HFRS patients, assess the impact of different hantavirus types on disease severity, and evaluate the accuracy of a severity scoring system developed in China for predicting mortality in European patients. Hospitalised patients with laboratory-confirmed HFRS will be prospectively recruited from University Medical Centre Ljubljana, Slovenia. Blood samples will be analysed for routine laboratory markers, thromboelastography (TEG) will assess real-time clotting function, and transcriptomic analysis will identify hantavirus strains and gene expression patterns linked to disease severity. Patients will be stratified into haemorrhagic and non-haemorrhagic groups, with statistical analyses comparing clinical and laboratory parameters to identify predictors of bleeding risk. Findings from this study may contribute to improved risk stratification and potential therapeutic targets for HFRS.

The study period is from 1st September 2007 to 31st December 2024.
NCT07232927
This prospective randomized study aims to evaluate the effect of adjunctive hemostatic agents (FloSeal® and Surgicel®) on perioperative outcomes in patients undergoing partial nephrectomy for localized renal tumors. A total of 150 patients were randomized into three groups: standard parenchymal suturing (Group A), suturing with FloSeal® (Group B), and suturing with Surgicel® (Group C). The study primarily investigates whether hemostatic agents reduce postoperative hemorrhage, urinary leakage, and positive surgical margin rates. Secondary outcomes include renal function change, operative and ischemia times, estimated blood loss, and hospital stay. All surgeries were performed by a single experienced surgeon at Ankara University Urology Department between January 2023 and December 2024.
NCT04404114
Chronic kidney disease is a common global public health issue and its prevalence increased year by year. Early diagnosis and intervention can prevent further complications and comorbidities of long-term dialysis, cardiovascular events and mortality as well as improve the patients' life quality. To differentiate acute from chronic kidney disease was crucial especially in the setting of crowded and high-risk emergency department. To diagnose acute or chronic kidney disease, physicians usually use blood sample test combined with image studies such as conventional sonography, CT and MRI. However, there was lots of limited factors. The patients may have no previous visit records, poor renal function to receive contrast medium, or critical clinical condition to undergo time-wasting exam. Although the conventional renal sonography is accessible and inexpensive, the judgement is subjective and provide little clinical information. Recent researches of shear wave elastography in evaluating renal parenchymal stiffness showed some correlation with nephropathy. In our study, aiming to facilitating clinical implication, the investigators will use swear-wave elastography combined with conventional renal sonography to benefit patients in diagnosis of acute or chronic kidney disease.
NCT07233252
This study is designed as an open-label, single-arm, single-center, phase II clinical trial, aiming to evaluate the efficacy of nephron-sparing treatment combining Tislelizumab and Nab-Paclitaxel for HER-2 expressing renal pelvic cancer (RPC) . Patients enrolled will receive 2-3 cycles of Tislelizumab in combination with Nab-Paclitaxel every 3 weeks and then undergo evaluation. Patients who achieve all of the following criteria of "well response and tolerance" will receive further maintenance treatment: (1)The patient achieves a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) according to the RECIST 1.1 criteria, indicating that the tumor is well-controlled. (2) If the patient has residual lesions, it should be confirmed by the clinical physician that these lesions can be eliminated through laser ablation via ureteroscopy. (3)The patient has not experienced any treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) that warrant discontinuation of therapy during systemic treatment. (4)The patient is willing to undergo further maintenance therapy. If the patient meets all the criteria above, ureteroscopic biopsy should be performed. If residual lesions are detected under the ureteroscope, endoscopic intervention (e.g., laser ablation, cryoablation) should be carried out simultaneously to eliminate these residual lesions. Patients who meet the above criteria will proceed with no less than 2 cycles of maintenance systemic therapy (Tislelizumab + Nab-Paclitaxel). Patients who do not meet the criteria will be excluded from the study and are recommended to undergo salvage radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) as soon as possible. One-year Nephron-Sparing Survival (1 year-NSS): Defined as the absence of surgical indications for nephrectomy due to progression or recurrence of upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma, distant metastasis caused by the primary upper urinary tract tumor, or death from any cause within 1 year from the initiation of treatment. Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) will be recorded and evaluated according to CTCAE 5.0.
NCT04381143
People with kidney failure requiring dialysis have a much higher risk of developing cardiovascular (CV) disease compared with the general population. A cardiac cause accounts for 58% of all deaths in patients with end stage kidney disease (ESKD). At the same time, this population has increased risks of clotting as well as bleeding episodes. While aspirin is known to reduce cardiovascular complications in the general population, evidence to support the use of aspirin in people with ESKD receiving dialysis therapy is currently lacking. The ASPIrin to Reduce Event in Dialysis (ASPIRED) trial will test whether aspirin use in dialysis patients safely improves outcomes compared with no aspirin use.
NCT07030595
This Phase 3 clinical trial is the pivotal study of AP301 aiming to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AP301 for controlling serum phosphorus in chronic kidney disease receiving hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis in Chinese patients with hyperphosphatemia.
NCT01323075
The primary objective is to demonstrate a longer period of neurologic recovery from a sensory block assessed in each test group versus the group without metabolic disease.
NCT06971874
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is highly prevalent in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients and strongly linked to obesity, metabolic syndrome, and type 2 diabetes. Besides elevating cardiovascular disease risk, OSA may worsen renal function and diminish quality of life, making its understanding critical for CKD patient health. This study will establish a large, long-term cohort of non-dialysis CKD patients to identify OSA risk factors, explore OSA's association with adverse renal outcomes, and determine OSA prevalence and epidemiological characteristics within the CKD population. The findings will provide a scientific foundation for early OSA identification, diagnosis, and intervention in CKD patients.
NCT06343727
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare protein supplements in patients with kidney failure on dialysis. The main questions it aims to answer are: * To determine whether the supplementation of egg white protein pudding in a population of individuals with kidney failure on dialysis is feasible. * To determine whether egg white protein pudding supplementation improves serum albumin similar to other standard nutritional supplements. * To determine the effects of the egg white protein pudding on frailty measures, dietary intakes and analytes in the blood. Participants will receive either the egg white pudding (experimental) or control (Ensure plus) at the end of their dialysis treatments 3-days per week for 12 weeks.
NCT03192189
Acute kidney injury is a frequent and growing complication associated with a risk of progressing into a chronic kidney disease. Recent guidelines have recommended systematic consultations with a nephrologist 3-6 months following hospitalization. Risk factors of developing chronic kidney disease between hospital visits are understudied.

NCT01224288
This is a companion protocol to MD Anderson Cancer Center study 2010-0085 (Sequential Therapy in Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma Therapy: The "START" Trial). The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if dynamic contrast enhanced computed tomography (DCE-CT) scans can help researchers learn if the study drug received as part of study 2010-0085 (either everolimus, bevacizumab, or pazopanib) is working.
NCT07226544
This phase II trial studies how well ivonescimab works prior to surgery in treating patients with high-risk clear cell kidney (renal cell) cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body (localized). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as ivonescimab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Ivonescimab may also stop or slow the cancer by blocking the growth of new blood vessels necessary for tumor growth. Giving ivonescimab before standard surgery may make the tumor smaller.
