NCT05342545
While data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) estimate that 36.9% of patients with diabetes have CKD, only approximately 10% of patients are aware of their kidney disease. In its 2020 Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes, the ADA recommends that all patients with type II diabetes (T2DM) undergo annual measurement of urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR). The National Kidney Foundation (NKF) has also proposed an update to the requirements for assessment of adults with diabetes including both an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and uACR. The goal of accurately identifying patients with T2DM and CKD is to help providers intervene at an earlier stage of kidney impairment, improve renal outcomes, and reduce associated healthcare costs. Failure to adopt these guideline recommendations has widespread implications, including underestimation of the burden of CKD in the T2DM population, delays in diagnosis of renal impairment, and ultimately, underutilization of therapies that could improve clinical outcomes. This single-center, 400-patient, randomized controlled trial will assess the impact of an EPIC Best Practice Advisory (BPA; alert-based CDS tool) on guideline-directed assessment for CKD using UACR in patients with T2DM who have not had a UACR in the past year.
NCT02574910
Children with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency tend to have elevated circulating levels of androgens, which can accelerate skeletal maturation and adversely impact adult height. Additionally, these children require supraphysiologic doses of hydrocortisone to suppress secretion of adrenal androgen precursors, and this treatment can retard linear growth. This study seeks to use oral abiraterone acetate (Zytiga)as an adjunct to approved CAH therapy (oral hydrocortisone and fludrocortisone) for pre-pubescent children with classic 21-hydroxylase deficiency in order to reduce daily requirement of hydrocortisone. In this Phase 1 study, the investigators will determine the minimum effective dose of abiraterone acetate that normalizes androstenedione levels during the 7-day Treatment Period.
NCT05790109
The goal of this study is to assess the physician and patient experience of radio frequency (RF) track cautery in patients undergoing needle biopsy of the liver, kidney, or spleen who have one or more risk factors for biopsy-related bleeding. RF track cautery involves inserting a bipolar electrode through the same introducer needle used for the biopsy, and heating the tissues along the path of the biopsy needle to prevent bleeding. This study primarily aims to assess the operator and patient experience during the use of track cautery. Secondary aims are to assess the technical success rate and procedure adverse events. Participants who enroll in the study will undergo track cautery as part of their clinically indicated liver, kidney, or spleen biopsy. After the procedure, they will fill out a brief survey asking about their experience during the procedure. Physician operators who perform track cautery as part of the study will also fill out a survey after each procedure asking about their experience using this technique.
NCT07217535
The goal of this observational study is to learn more about how genes impact the risk of kidney disease. Anyone 18 or older living in the US is eligible, and a diagnosis of kidney disease is NOT required. Study participation is online, and it takes about 20 minutes to complete health surveys and request a saliva collection kit sent through US mail. In return, study participants may opt to receive information about their genetic ancestry at no cost.
NCT05654103
Patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) who use hemodialysis to filter their blood require vascular access for the dialysis machine; the most common type of vascular access is called an arteriovenous fistula (AVF). The AVF is a direct connect between an artery and vein. Until recently, AVFs were only created through surgery that requires general anesthesia and opening up the skin. Now there are 2 FDA-approved devices designed to create AVFs using endovascular techniques (endoAVF), which means a device that goes through the skin instead of opening the skin up. Also patients are not required to be under general anesthesia, they can receive local anesthesia instead. Due to the relatively new approval of these devices, there is not a randomized study to compare the results of endoAVF versus surgAVF. This study is a pilot study for an eventually larger scale study to compare the results of endoAVF versus surgAVF. The study aims to determine what the proportion of patients seeking hemodialysis access could qualify for receiving either an endoAVF , surgAVF, or both. Patients who are screened for hemodialysis access must undergo a duplex ultrasound of the blood vessels in the arm to confirm correct sizing. If participants qualify for both procedures they will be randomized to either endoAVF or surgAVF and will track the clinical and patient-reported outcomes of each procedure. Our pilot study hopes to enroll 90 participants. Those outcomes will inform a larger scale study. If the potential participant chooses to abstain from participation in the randomized trial, preferring to decide the method of AVF creation, we will offer to them a chance to join an endoAVF/surgAVF registry that will track the clinical outcomes of the procedure via medical record monitoring.
NCT06824987
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of AZD2373 in participants diagnosed with APOL1-Mediated Kidney Disease (AMKD) who are homozygotes or compound heterozygotes for APOL1 high-risk genotypes (G1 and G2). The primary hypothesis to be evaluated is that AZD2373, compared with placebo, will result in a greater reduction in UACR as assessed by the relative change from Baseline in UACR at Week 30.
NCT06863467
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.
NCT00855036
The objective of this study is to evaluate the outcomes of children who have sustained blunt renal injury and to evaluate our current bed rest protocol. The variables of concern are readmission, operation, subsequent hypertension and clearance of hematuria. The specific aim of the study is to prospectively collect the clinical data of these children to validate our hospital management and to define the natural history of these lesions.

NCT05564416
This phase II trial compares the effect of erdafitinib alone to using the combination of erdafitinib and atezolizumab in treating patients with bladder cancer whose tumor invades the muscular bladder wall (muscle invasive)and who are ineligible for treatment with a chemotherapy drug called cisplatin. This trial also determines whether these treatment approaches are better than the usual approach for treating this type of cancer. The usual approach for treatment of someone with muscle invasive bladder cancer is chemotherapy with a drug called cisplatin followed by surgery (most common), or chemoradiation (radiation combined with chemotherapy) to the bladder (in some patients). However, half of the patients cannot get cisplatin due to safety concerns. This study has a screening step. The purpose of this step is to test patient's tumor to find out if it has a specific change (alteration) in the fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) gene to determine patient's eligibility for this trial. Alteration of the FGFR gene causes bladder cancer cells to grow and divide abnormally. Erdafitinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal FGFR protein. This may help keep cancer cells from growing and may kill them. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving erdafitinib alone or in combination with atezolizumab may help to shrink tumor cells at the time of surgery better than the usual treatment in muscle invasive bladder cancer.
NCT04099992
This study will test whether mindfulness meditation (MM) improves sympathetic function in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and whether transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) optimizes the sympatho-inhibitory effects of mindfulness meditation (MM) and restores autonomic balance in CKD patients.
NCT05901831
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people with chronic kidney disease (CKD), a progressive decrease in the kidneys' ability to work properly, and type 1 diabetes. In people with type 1 diabetes, the body does not make enough of a hormone called insulin, resulting in high blood sugar levels that can cause damage to the kidneys. CKD often occurs together with or as a consequence of type 1 diabetes. The study treatment finerenone works by blocking certain proteins, called mineralocorticoid receptors. An increased stimulation of these proteins is thought to damage the kidneys and the heart. By lowering their stimulation, finerenone reduces the risk of kidney disease progressively getting worse. Finerenone is approved for doctors to prescribe to people with CKD and type 2 diabetes. In this study, researchers want to learn if finerenone works better than placebo in reducing the participants' kidney disease from getting worse when given in addition to standard of care (SOC) treatment. A placebo looks like a treatment but does not have any medicine in it. SOC is a procedure or treatment that medical experts consider most appropriate for a condition or disease. To find out how well finerenone works, the level of a protein (albumin) in the urine will be measured. Researchers also want to know how safe finerenone is. To do this, the researchers will collect the number of participants with: * medical problems (also called treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs)) * serious TEAEs. An TEAE is considered 'serious' when it leads to death, puts the participant's life at risk, requires hospitalization, causes disability, causes a baby being born with medical problems, or is medically important * higher than normal blood levels of potassium (hyperkalaemia). Depending on the treatment group, the participants will either take finerenone or placebo, Importantly, the participants will also continue to take their regular SOC medicines. The participants will be in the study for up to 7.5 months and will take the study treatments for 6 months. During the study, they will visit the study site at least 6 times. The study team will: * collect blood and urine samples * check the participants' vital signs such as blood pressure and heart rate * do a physical examination including height and weight * check the participants' heart health by using an electrocardiogram (ECG) * do pregnancy tests in women of childbearing potential
