About this study

Official title: Circadian Rhythm of Erythropoietin and Melatonin in Patients With Various Degrees of Renal Insufficiency

Rationale: Investigation of the circadian rhythm of erythropoietin and melatonin in patients with various degrees of renal insufficiency

Objectives:

Read more

Primary objective: Is there a circadian rhythm of epo and melatonin in patients with various degrees of renal insufficiency?

Primary Objective: Is there a circadian rhythm of epo and melatonin in patients with various degrees of renal insufficiency compared to patients with a normal renal function?

Secondary Objective: Is there a circadian rhythm of cortisol and IGF in patients with various degrees of renal insufficiency?

Secondary Objective: Is there a circadian rhythm of cortisol and IGF in patients with various degrees of renal insufficiency compared to patients with a normal renal function?

Study design: Comparative study in 4 groups with various degrees of renal insufficiency, duration for each patient 24 hrs. Total duration of study 12 months, patients admitted to the hospital (on nursing ward)

Study population: Patients with various degrees of renal insufficiency

Main study parameters/endpoints: Analysis of the existence of a circadian rhythm in patients with a normal renal function and in patients with variable degrees of renal insufficiency

Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: Better knowledge of the circadian rhythm in renal insufficiency. This could lead to a more efficient administration of erythropoietin and melatonin in the future.

Extent of burden is 1 venapunction for placement of infusion needle, the withdrawal of 11 times 5 ml blood in 24 hrs, continuous measurement of body temperature via capsule, 24-hour continuous ambulant blood pressure monitoring.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Kidney Disease, run by Meander Medical Center at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 10 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jun 2008. 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 Netherlands. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

existence of circadian rhythm of Erythropoietin and Melatonin (time frame: 24 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 17 Jun 2008.
