Trial summary

Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) have been shown to have high coronary calcium scores (CAC), but the temporal association between Glomerular Filtration Rate, CVD risk factors and CAC has not been described. This is a single-center, longitudinal, observational study. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Coronary Artery Calcification in Chronic Kidney Disease Using Multidetector Row Spiral Computed Tomography

Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) have been shown to have high coronary calcium scores (CAC), but the temporal association between Glomerular Filtration Rate, CVD risk factors and CAC has not been described. This is a single-center, longitudinal, observational study. Subjects included adults aged 18 years to 65 years old without preexisting coronary artery disease (CAD). The CKD subjects (GFR < 60 ml/min) and the control subjects (GFR >/=60ml/min) were recruited. Laboratory measurements and MDCT scan were performed at baseline and after 12 months. Baseline CAC and average intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) level were significantly greater in the CKD group. Baseline CAC scores of the CKD group were twice the value of the control group; however, CAC scores over one year were unchanged from baseline.

Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) have been shown to have high coronary calcium scores (CAC), but the temporal association between Glomerular Filtration Rate, CVD risk factors and CAC has not been described. This is a single-center, longitudinal, observational study. Subjects included adults aged 18 years to 65 years old without preexisting coronary artery disease (CAD). The CKD subjects (GFR < 60 ml/min) were recruited from the Nephrology Clinic, and the control subjects (GFR >/=60ml/min) were recruited from the Internal Medicine Clinic. Laboratory measurements and MDCT scan were performed at baseline and after 12 months. Baseline CAC and average intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) level were significantly greater in the CKD group. Baseline CAC scores of the CKD group were twice the value of the control group; however, CAC scores over one year were unchanged from baseline. These observations suggest that CAC begins in earlier stages of CKD. Moreover, novel CVD risk factors including iPTH may accelerate CAD progression in CKD.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Kidney Disease, run by United States Naval Medical Center, San Diego at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Aug 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00142636, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Aug 2025.
