About this study

Official title: Clinical Controlled Trial to Determinate the Role of Sodium Bicarbonate in the Prevention of Contrast-Induced Nephropathy in High-Risk Patients Undergoing to Diagnostic Coronariography and/or Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

The purpose of this study is to determine whether sodium bicarbonate is effective in the prevention of sodium-induced nephropathy

Read the detailed description

The use of contrast media is more frequent as new diagnostic and therapeutic procedures are developed. As a consequence, the occurrence of acute renal failure (ARF), also known as contrast-induced nephropathy, is more frequently seen after the realization of these procedures, representing about 10% of all in-hospital ARF. The importance of preventing this complication is related with its strong association with higher morbidity and mortality rates in patients who present it. A number of drugs and interventions have been studied for preventing contrast-induced nephropathy, including intravenous hydration with normal and hypotonic saline solutions, oral hydration, mannitol, diuretics, dopamine and its antagonists (fenoldopam), calcium antagonists, theophylline, N-acetylcysteine, natriuretic atrial peptide and hemodialysis after or during contrast media administration.

There is only one study in humans that demonstrates the utility of the sodium bicarbonate to prevent the contrast-induced nephropathy, showing a reduction in the incidence of this complication of about 13.6%. Although this result could seem convincing, its relevance has been questioned because the definition used by the authors as contrast-induced nephropathy was an increase of 25% from basal creatinine. Although when compared, the absolute differences between basal and after-procedure creatinines were not statistically significative, the sample size was small and the participants were low-risk patients to develop contrast-induced nephropathy. It is also important to note that the control group was hydrated with a dextrose 5% solution with 154 mEq of NaCl, although today's most accepted prevention therapy is intravenous hydration with normal saline solution.

Comparison: Hydration previously, during and afterwards contrast media administration with normal saline solution (0.9%), compared to hydration previous, during and afterwards contrast media administration with a solution made of normal saline and sodium bicarbonate.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Sodium bicarbonate in people with Acute Kidney Failure, run by Instituto Nacional de Cardiologia Ignacio Chavez at 2 sites in Mexico.

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 8 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Jan 2007. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Mexico. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Emma Miranda Malpica, PhD (52+55+55499120 ext. 1232, malpicae@yahoo.com.mx), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Contrast-induced nephropathy. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00424320, which also lists 9 linked publications.

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 19 Jan 2007.
